Battery life and charging
Your fully charged Alta has a battery life of up to 5 days. Note that battery life and
charge cycles vary with use, settings, and many other factors. Actual results will vary
Determining your current battery level
When you tap your Alta to flip through your stats, the first screen will show a low
battery icon if your battery is low. If you see a critically low icon you’ll be unable to
flip through your stats.
You can also check your battery level on your Fitbit dashboard.
Charging your tracker
To charge your Alta, plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or
a UL-certified USB wall charger, then clip the other end into the port on the back of
the Alta. The pins on the charging cable must be lined up with the charging port on
the Alta and securely locked into place. You’ll know the connection is secure when
you see a battery icon on Alta’s display.
Charging fully takes one to two hours. While the tracker charges, you can tap it to
check the battery level. A fully charged tracker shows a solid battery icon. If you
haven’t set up your tracker yet, when you tap it you’ll see a message directing you to
