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!!

    Same issues as other people, shame as I like my Fitbit but disappointed I can’t get Deezer to work properly on the watch

    Hi @Rudi -- Just an update on my end. I’m able to open Deezer in the Fitbit app now, but functionality seems to be limited. And, I still get that dreaded “server unavailable” message. Previously, that message would display and not let me into the Deezer app at all. Now I can get into the app, but that message still pops up pretty frequently while I’m in the app.

    I’ve also noticed that I don’t see the playlists I was able to add to my Sense when I select “Add Music”. So, I’m not able to remove them. Also, the three dots in the upper right corner of the Deezer app don’t do anything. When I tap them, I am sent back to the Media section of the Fitbit app.

    Any updates on the Deezer side? I still have a case opened with Fitbit, but no updates from them in a week. I reached out to them earlier today and was told they would send an email update soon.

    BTW...I do have a Deezer support ticket opened (5793487). That has a lot more detail on my initial issue, if that helps.

    Hey @danjschu 

    Thanks for the reports. Your support ticket is actually grouped with others, so we've got all the details we need at the moment. Unfortunately, this issue is affecting other integrations which use our public API, so not only Fitbit's.

    At the moment you may notice some differences in the access you have, as you mentioned above, and that's why our teams our working on getting this sorted from our side. Please hang in there and keep me posted if you notice anything.

    In the meantime, have a great weekend!

    I am cancelling my deezer subscription. WHY WOULD YOU SAY ALMOST A YEAR AGO THAT YOU WILL FIX IT IF YOU ARE NOT PLANNING TO?! The only reason why I even subscribe to Deezer was for fitbit integration which doesn't work.

    Just got new fitbit. Subscribed to deezer premium so I can listen to music while running. Put the activation code in so I can pair but keeps coming up with server error message. Please confirm this is an issue from your end and is in the process of being resolved as I am getting frustrated trying to pair my devices. Turning both my phone and fitbit off a numerous of times and thinking I'm doing something wrong. TIA.
