I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and i just purchased a Fitbit Versa 2. I have tried for 2 days straight to get Deezer to work on the watch with no luck.

I get to the point twhere i type the activation code from the Deezer app onto my Versa and then it says “Link accounts” - every time i do this I get a message “Uh oh, unexpected error occurred”.

Can someone please help!!

    Hey @Karl Cross 

    Thanks for reporting it, @Rob Igo told us too. We're aware of the issue and our devs are investigating this at the moment. Please bear with us and keep updated here :v_tone2:

    Hi. This seems to be working as of this afternoon. I'm not sure if the Devs corrected it,.or it sorted itself. Either way. Thanks for the support 😊

    Hi @Helmick.Melissa 

     

    Try un linking the Deezer account under your fitbit app.  Also uninstall the app from the watch, then restart it.

     

    Then re-install the Deezer app, then under the fitbit app re-link the two accounts together and try and sync a playlist.

    Hi all

    I’m new to having Deezer and a Fitbit. 
    How do I sync the Deezer to my Fitbit? When I go into Fitbit app and media , I click on Deezer and sync but nothing happens on the app!

    can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong 

     

    thank you :)

    Hi, 

    I have WiFi connected to Fitbit and have tried force

    sync when I look at my Fitbit it says sync in process but is still on 0%
    when I go into My Fitbit app it says an error has occurred so can’t even see the music I have added ,or think I’ve added.

    Hi @Wease25 

     

    OK my advise is to start again, so do this (in this order):-

     

    • in the fitbit app unlink your Deezer account
    • in the fitbit app under the apps section for your watch, uninstall
    • restart your watch (under settings on the watch)
    • restart your phone
    • in the fitbit app under the app section for your watch, re-install Deezer app on watch
    • re-link to your Deezer account
    • choose just 1 of your playlists to sync (just 1 for now to see if it works)
    • force sync

    Let us know how you get on :)

    Was there ever a fix to this? I am having this problem now! Just bought a versa 3 and cannot get it to connect. I have tried everything. Been working on it for about 9 hrs today!! Please get it fixed. The watch will have to be returned otherwise.
