Updating your Fitbit Surge
Free feature enhancements and product improvements are occasionally made
available with firmware updates provided through Fitbit Connect or the Fitbit app.
We recommend keeping your Fitbit Surge up to date.
Updating your Fitbit Surge takes several minutes and may be demanding on the
battery. We recommend that you charge your Fitbit Surge before updating or while
the update is in progress.
To update your Fitbit Surge using Fitbit Connect:
1. Make sure the wireless sync dongle is plugged in and that your tracker is
nearby.
2. Click the Fitbit Connect icon located near the date and time.
3. Click Open Main Menu and then Check for device update.
4. Log in to your account and give Fitbit Connect a moment to find your Fitbit
Surge.
If an update is found, Fitbit Connect will begin downloading and installing the
update. A progress bar appears on your computer screen and on the Fitbit
Surge while the update is in progress.
Fitbit Connect displays a confirmation screen when the update is complete.
