What if you could change your old Fitbit account and start over?

Yes, Fitbit allows that if you know the right tricks.

So, let’s jump right in because you’ll also learn how to delete your current profile.

How To Change Fitbit Account On iPhone?

To change your Fitbit account from your iPhone, you need another account.

There are two ways to do that.

Firstly, you delete your old account and create a new one.

Secondly, you already have two profiles and switch from one to another.

Deleting Existing Account

First, I’ll show you how to delete your old Fitbit account and create a new one. Here’s a step-by-step process for that.

Step 1: Go To Fitbit

Take your iPhone and go to the Fitbit app. Make sure your WiFi or Data connection is on.

Step 2: Go To Your Profile

Now, tap on the Today tab from the menu. From there, you have to click on your profile picture to go to your profile.

Step 3: Delete Your Account

In your profile, you will see an option called Manage Data. Scroll down and click on it. Then you will see the Delete Account button. You must click on it and follow the on-screen instructions to delete your existing account.

Step 4: Wait For Final Deletion

Your Fitbit account won’t delete immediately. Within the first 7 days, you can restore your account by login in and restoring access. Your account will be permanently frozen, and you can’t recover it anymore. Your data will be removed from the Fitbit database after 90 days.

Creating A New Account

After you put in a request for account deletion, you can open a new account. Here’s the process for that.

  • Firstly, download the Fitbit app on your iPhone from Apple Store and launch the app.
  • Then, click on the Set Up button to sign up.
  • Now fill out your email address and a new password. Then tick the ‘agree to terms of service box and click next.
  • Now it’s time to verify your email address. Fitbit will send an email to your registered email address.
  • Go to your Fitbit app again and click next.
  • You’ll see Fitbit’s privacy policy popping up; tap on the ‘I Agree’ button.  
  • Then you will see an About You page where you have to fill out your birthday, height, weight, and sex.
  • Finally, tap on Create Account option and hit the ‘I Agree’ option on Fitbit’s Terms & Policies.

How To Switch Fitbit Account On iPhone?

If you already have two Fitbit accounts, you can change your account by simply logging out from one and logging into the other.

Follow these step-by-step processes.

  • Firstly, go to your Fitbit app and click on the Account button.
  • Now scroll down to the Log Out option and tap on it.
  • You are logged out of your account and redirected to the login page.
  • Then you have to log in to another account.
  • Finally, hit the login button, and you’ll be on your other Fitbit account.

Conclusion

Changing your Fitbit account is an easy task. Ensure you follow my instructions correctly and that you’re good to go.
