- Hi, I'm Agent Weiss
and today I'm going to show you how to set up
a Fitbit Sense.
Here's what you'll need.
A smart device like a phone or tablet.
The Fitbit app installed.
The Fitbit Sense.
The included charging cable
and the name and password for your wireless network.
I'll be using a Google Pixel 4
so the steps might be a little different
depending on your device.
Also, I'll be showing you how to set up
the Fitbit Sense first,
but then later in the video
I'll walk you through some of the cool health metrics
that you track,
along with installing new clock faces.
Then finally, I'll show you how to set up quick replies
so you can respond to things like text messages
right from your watch.
If you wanna skip to those sections,
there are links in the notes below.
All right, let's get the Fitbit Sense set up.
First, plug in the charging cable
and place the watch on it to start charging,
while that's charging
download and install the Fitbit app on your smart device.
Open it and tap Join Fitbit or log in
if you already have an account.
I don't have one yet so I'll create one.
Start by entering your email address and password.
Here's a tip.
Make sure you pick a strong password.
We have another great tech tips video on that.
There's a link in the notes below.
Check appropriate boxes, and then tap Next to continue.
Read through the privacy policy
and if you agree, tap I agree.
Enter your name, birthday,
height, weight, and gender
and then tap Create an account to continue.
All right, next tap on your device Sense
ad then tap Set up.
This screen will ask if the Sense charging,
it is so I'll tap Next.
The screen will then give information about location.
Check the boxes and tap While using the app.
Then tap Allow in settings.
Then tap Allow all the time.
Tap the back arrow in the top left.
The app will find the Sense
and send it a four digit code.
Type that code into the app
to connect the Sense to your phone.
If you get a pop-up to pair with Sense,
tap the check box to allow access and then tap Pair.
Now we'll get the Sense connected to your Wi-Fi.
Tap Next to start that process.
Select your network,
type in the password and tap Ok to continue.
You'll get a message like this
telling you the Sense is now connected to your network.
Tap Next to continue.
Now it's time to download and install any updates.
This will make sure you're running the latest software.
To do that tap Start update.
This process might take some time
depending on your internet connection.
When it's done tap Continue,
then just like before read through the privacy policy
and if you agree tap Got it.
At this point you can set up Google Assistant
or Alexa on your Sense
to do things like check the weather, set an alarm,
get your sleep duration, or even start an exercise.
It's a really cool integration,
but since I'm just setting up the Sense today,
I'll tap Skip, but you can set this up
at any time in the Fitbit app.
A loading screen will appear.
This may take some time.
If you want to be able to take phone calls
via Bluetooth from your phone,
tap on See instructions.
I'm going to choose Skip for now.
The next screen will give some information
about monitoring your oxygen saturation,
otherwise known as SpO2.
Read through this and then tap Next.
Take a few minutes to review this section on bands.
It'll show you how to change them.
That's one of the great things about the Fitbit Sense.
You can easily change the bands
to match your style or outfit.
Then tap Next for instructions on how to properly wear
and use the watch.
Swiping from top to bottom will reveal
the latest notifications likes texts, calls or apps.
When you're ready, tap Next.
So I think from the bottom to the top
you can access widgets
for your favorite apps and features.
Tap Next.
Swiping from left to right
we'll show you settings and modes.
Tap Next when you're ready.
Swiping from right to left
you'll see apps like Exercise, Timer and Weather.
Swiping this direction will also go back a screen.
Tap Next.
When you press the side button once
it'll take you back to the clock face from anywhere.
Press and hold the side button for two seconds
to access feature shortcuts
like the voice assistant, payments, music or the timer.
When you're ready, tap Next.
You can double press the side button
to see your four favorite apps.
This is really helpful to get to them quickly.
Tap Next to continue.
Now the app walk you through some of the best practices
when it comes to taking care of your new Fitbit Sense.
Take some time to review this section
and when you're ready, tap Next to continue.
And we're nearly there, tap Done.
Now it's time to actually link your Fitbit Sense
with the Fitbit app.
Tap Ok,
then tap Allow.
Tap Ok to allow the Fitbit app to receive notifications
from your phone and send them to your Sense,
if that's what you'd prefer.
Next, you can set up your free trial of Fitbit Premium,
which adds a number of really great features
like learning how to improve your nutrition,
new workouts, guided meditations
and programs that are specifically tailored
to your health and fitness goals.
You can also receive personalized insights,
invite friends to compete or work as a team
and complete step by step workouts with Fitbit Coach.
If you're interested in doing that now,
follow the onscreen steps.
It's really easy.
Or if you'd rather do it later,
tap the X to finish the setup process.
And there you go.
Your new Fitbit Sense is all set up and ready to go.
Now let me show you some of the health metrics
you can track.
First, let's take a look at ECG,
to install the app tap Discover
from the today screen on the app.
In the assessments and reports category
look for heart rhythm assessment and tap Start
Read through the heart rhythm assessment
and tap Get started.
When you're ready and if you agree with everything
on this screen, tap I confirm.
Now read through how it works and tap Next.
This explains more about the results you might see.
When you're ready tap Next.
Now you'll see a video showing you how to start the ECG app.
Check it out and when you're done tap Done to complete.
All right, now let me show you how to install
new clock faces using the SpO2 Signature app.
This will show your blood oxygen saturation
and keep your key health and fitness metrics
on one clock face.
Tap the profile picture in the top left corner,
then tap Sense.
Clock faces.
All clocks
and SpO2 Signature.
Tap Select and install.
When it's done, it'll automatically show up like this.
SpO2 is the amount of oxygen in your blood
shown as a percentage of the amount it could carry.
Let me tell you how it works.
Wear your Sense to bed then in the morning
sync it by simply opening the app on your phone.
Now check your clock face to see your average SpO2 level
as well as the range of values detected.
All right, now let me show you how to track a workout.
Swipe from right to left and tap Exercise,
select your activity
and tap the Start button.
Swipe up and tap End to finish the workout.
It's that simple.
Now, like I said earlier,
Fitbit Premium is an optional service
that unlocks a number of great features and benefits.
If at some point you want to do that,
simply tap the premium tab here
and walk through the setup steps.
All right, for the last portion,
I'll show you how to set up quick replies
so you can respond to things like text messages
right from your Sense.
Tap on Today tab and then tap on Profile in the top left.
Tap on the Sense device.
Next scroll and tap on Notifications.
Tap on Allow on the pop-up a few times for each item
so Fitbit app will have access.
In the reply setting section tap on Quick replies.
Now I use messages from my text messages
so I'll tap on that.
The list will display the default replies and emojis,
tap on one and create a replacement.
And there you go.
