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 😊

    Just bought a versa 3 today, not only was I let down to find out I couldn't play spotify offline but now after subscribing to Deezer instead I am also getting the error “Uh Oh! There was a problem reaching the server. Please try again later.” when I try to connect to it over the fitbit app, the are comments here from weeks ago with the same issue, how has this still not been fixed within the space of weeks? Where is the urgency? This is surely not such a complex issue to resolve from your side that users have not been able to play music for week

    Same problem here too - with my old

    Ionic (that I thought was on its way out, has had other problems too) and new versa (received today). I have spent hours over the last few weeks trying to get them synced and tried all the advice given with no joy. I’m training for a big race and need music on my runs and hate having to carry my phone. 
    We are paying money out in good faith for both Fitbits and Deezer so it’s really disappointing that you haven’t found a resolution yet. This has been ongoing for weeks now so surely something must have been done about it??

    Smae here… bought Sense today, in Italy Google Assistant hasn’t been activated, now I see that I can’t even use Deezer… connection problem… try later… Really?! Please, solve this as soon as possible, or this watch will have to be trashed and Deezer changed with another music provider.

    So basically I’m having this problem. I have tried to download music to my fit bit versa 2 through Deezer and it have worked before, and now I am experiencing this issue. Every time I click onto manage my music, this error keeps popping up, “ uh oh, there was a problem reaching the server”. This blocks me from accessing my music and downloading more. I’ve tried to contact the fit bit support team and they are saying that this just might be a Deezer issue with Fitbit. Can someone reach out to me, I did everything from resetting my Fitbit to deleting everything and nothing worked.

    Hi @Timurthepro 

     

    I believe this is an ongoing recent problem between Deezer and Fitbit (search this community and also the Fitbit community and you’ll see other threads).  

     

    Fingers crossed it will be fixed soon :) (at least you know it’s not just yours not sync’ing).

    I'm a "Deezerhead" (fanboy) and just love music! (Please note even though I love all things Deezer I do not work for Deezer and therefore cannot assist with account issues etc.)
