Controlling Music
With a compatible iOS or Android device you can use Fitbit Surge to pause and
resume music and skip to the next track. To determine whether your device supports
this feature, go to http://www.fitbit.com/devices. The Fitbit Surge uses the AVRCP
Bluetooth profile to control music; therefore, the app providing your music must be
compatible with AVRCP. Some streaming music apps do not broadcast track
information and therefore the track title won't appear on your Fitbit Surge display.
However, if an app supports AVRCP you can still pause or skip a track, just not see its
title on your Fitbit Surge.
Enabling music control
To control music from your Fitbit Surge, you use the Bluetooth feature on your
phone to connect (“pair”) your Fitbit Surge with your mobile device. Pairing your
Fitbit Surge requires that you perform steps on both your Fitbit Surge and your
mobile device in quick succession. Have them both close at hand before continuing.
To enable music control:
1. If you have not already done so, confirm that your device is compatible for
music control at http://www.fitbit.com/devices.
2. On your Fitbit Surge:
a. Display the Menu, then swipe to Settings.
b. Scroll to Bluetooth Classic.
c. If the setting is Off or On, press the Select button until the setting is
Pair.
3. On your mobile device:
a. Navigate to the Bluetooth Settings screen where paired devices are
listed.
b. Make sure your mobile device is discoverable and is scanning for
devices.
c. When “Fitbit Surge (Classic)” is shown as an available device, select it.
d. Wait for a message displaying a six-digit number.
4. Perform the following two steps in close succession.
a. When the same six-digit number appears on your Fitbit Surge, press the
Action button.
b. On your mobile device, select Pair.
After successfully pairing your device, the Bluetooth Classic setting on your Fitbit
Surge should automatically be reset to On.
