Steps

1
Open the Fitbit app on your mobile phone or tablet. This app icon looks like a blue background with white dots on it. You can find this app on either your home screen, in the app drawer, or by searching.
- If you don't have the Fitbit mobile app, you can download it for free from either the Google Play Store or App Store.
2
Tap your account picture. You'll find this in the top left corner of your screen and see a list of all your connected devices.
3
Tap your Fitbit. An icon of the associated Fitbit is displayed beside the model name.
4
Tap the Amazon Alexa tile. It should be the first tile in the list with the Alexa icon.
5
Tap Login with Amazon. You can swipe through the tips at the top of the page before tapping to log in.
- Once you tap, you'll be redirected to an Amazon login page.
6
Enter your Amazon account's email (or phone number) and password. If you don't have an account, tap Create a new Amazon account to use Alexa.
7
Tap Allow. You'll need to give Fitbit permission to access Alexa and your account connection.
8
Tap Use location. This will let you share your current location with Alexa and get relevant information to you. If you don't want to use this feature, tap Not now.^{[1]
