Find My Fitbit - Finder App Reviews

I lost my Fitbit yesterday while looking through boxes in garage, closets, bedrooms, etc. I was looking for face masks for our business since they weren’t available during the current Covid-19 outbreak. And I recently moved to a new house. I have a small wrist and my Fitbit can get unsnapped easily by bumping against things. When I realized later it fell off and could be anywhere in my house, in a box, or wherever, I felt a bit deflated and resigned to have to buy a new Fitbit. Then this morning, it was still able to sync, so I thought it was near me in my living room. Searched all over to no avail. Then I found FindMyFitbit and decided to give it a try. It led me to the garage and to a specific set of boxes. I looked through each box and set it aside. When I got to the last large box, it said Very Hot. But I had not opened that box earlier. I searched inside anyway and it was still say saying Very Hot. So I pulled the box away from the wall and Voila! There lay my precious little Fitbit! FindMyFitbit worked so well and saved me from being without my Fitbit for who knows long during this outbreak and shutdowns. I would have had to order it in the unknown future. It’s a small thing compared to everything else going on right now, but it gave me a bright spot in my day. FindMyFitbit was totally worth the $5.99 to get my Fitbit back. Highly recommend.

I had my doubts! My Fitbit Flex (original Fitbit...bought in 2014) went missing around 5:30 yesterday. I noticed the next morning I had no steps, and when I checked, my Fitbit band was empty on my wrist! No Fitbit! After work, about 24 hours missing now, I download the Find My Fitbit app. I was skeptical, only cuz my Fitbit is so old. Thought it was in hubby’s truck...nope, cold! Thought it could be in my shed...nope, cold! Garden? Cold! My car? Cold! Geeez! But, every time I walked onto our new screen porch, it said we were getting warmer...we were about an hour in total time searching now, but we knew it was close by...but where??? Then, it happened! My husband took a step toward the 55 gal. container that I use to mix and store my birdseed...and it turned to HOT! How exciting! We were so close! My husband took a few steps away, just to be sure and it went from HOT back to “Warmer”, so we knew it was probably in that container as I had just mixed a new batch the day before! I put gloves on and started mixing - but, it would be impossible to find a small black “bit” among all the small black sunflower seeds that look like “bits”..but we found it!!! It was dirty, but cleaned it up- good as new! Yaaaay! Remarkable! I’ve had it this long, really didn’t want to buy a new one...do they even make the Flex anymore? LOL!!! Thank you for your app- LOVE IT! 💜💜💜

I had just gone through a security checkpoint in a foreign country for an event and had to take my Fitbit out (which no longer had it’s watch straps as the connection point cracked, so I had it in my bra). I had to go through security swiftly to get to work and had no idea where my Fitbit was after the checkpoint. Did it fall on the floor? Did the person behind me take it? I didn’t want my $200+ device go missing. So I searched FindMyFitbit Store & with great reviews, the $6 was a fine price to pay vs. buying a whole new device as I had already gone back to security to look everywhere and saw nothing.

I purchase FindMyFitbit . I use it. I had my phone right over my purse and it already says “Hot.” I was like, this must be wrong, I ran my fingers through all the pockets, but things can get buried... so I put the phone somewhere else over my other stuff and it just says warm. OK. Must be in my purse then, so I go back over and it says “Hot” again. I dig deeper... and finally I find it! Hallelujah. Thank you, developer of FindMyFitbit.

I’ll probably have to keep using this for the duration of my trip / until I get new watch straps and likely not again, but thank you!

So about a year ago I got a Fitbit for Christmas and I just recently lost it for the first time and was not happy about it… Trust me. As I was searching through the reviews and ratings it look like it was a very good app so I downloaded it and lo and behold I had a problem. I didn’t really like it because it didn’t tell wear my Fitbit was it just give you hints and I spent over two hours looking for my Fitbit and still haven’t found it I don’t really like FindMyFitbit I just wish it would be a little more specific and it also keeps jumping around so it says hot when it’s supposed to be cold and warmer when it’s supposed to be hot or cold or whatever it’s just really hard to know what it’s saying so I don’t really like it I would not recommend buying FindMyFitbit especially if you have to find your Fitbit in a hurry and for The price that it is I would not recommend this for people just trying it out because it might not work for you and you might be very disappointed like I was after I saw all of the amazing comments I thought it would work 100% and I would find it right away but like I said before after almost 3 hours I still could not find my Fitbit and was very disappointed in all of the good comments saying it really worked it was a waste of money in my opinion and I am not trying to be rude or anything I am just giving my review thank you for reading this and have a good evening/morning/afternoon! Thank you,

First time I used it started to read the instructions but then clicked on FindMyFitbit and it all fell in the place without explanation. Found my Fitbit and less than two minutes!! Found it while FindMyFitbit said it was “warm”… It seems to take several seconds for it to move to the next level of “warmness”, which is probably why it tells you to walk very, very slowly while you search. My only complaint is that I purchased and downloaded it to my work device, which I will need to return in a few days, but did not think that was a big deal because I purchased FindMyFitbit using my Apple ID used across all my devices. But when I went to download it from iCloud on my personal phone it wants to charge me another $5.99? But I already bought it! That’s my only complaint, and that one issue does get under my skin in a big way. I’m very selective with apps that I choose to purchase, and I didn’t anticipate this one wouldn’t allow me to download FindMyFitbit from the cloud onto my personal device without having to pay for it again. Thank you, but I don’t wish to pay for it two times. Or more depending on when I get my next phone!

I never take my Fitbit off except to shower. So the household was surprised that I lost it. I never left the house, so it had to be around. We all looked everywhere using the “Sync” on my Fitbit App which didn’t work, it would never connect. We searched for two days. Out of desperation decided to get FindMyFitbit. I thought it wasn’t working because while in the house it couldn’t connect at all. But on the third day I went outside by the large outside garbage can (I remembered I had taken garbage out) and I got a connection indicating I was Warm. Going through every trash bag, still could not find it. FindMyFitbit never told me I was hot, but when I’d go back towards the house it did say cold. So I dumped the garbage can and at the bottom was my Fitbit! The strap disconnected from the Fitbit and fell off my wrist while taking the garbage out. I never would have found it. FindMyFitbit never registered Hot and it took awhile before it connected and gave me a Warm, but in the end it did help me. I would not have been as diligent in my garbage can search without FindMyFitbit telling me it was there.

One of the few Apps that I‘m glad I purchased. FindMyFitbit found my Fitbit! I had done a last minute wardrobe change and unaware I had lost my Fitbit One. Apparently, I didn’t set my Fitbit in the rubber clip very securely as it fell off when while I carried the laundry downstairs. Operator error. The clip really does work well. Anyway, after an unsuccessful search was made in the house, garage, at church, hospital, and gym, I purchased FindMyFitbit . It registered a “warm” signal strength but I couldn’t find my Fitbit. I sighed and went on about my daily routine. Checking my closet one last time, FindMyFitbit again registered “warm” in front of the basket. Frustrated, dropped to the floor to “cry out” again. Then FindMyFitbit registered “hot.” I pulled off the fabric liner in the basket and found my Fitbit had fallen through a hole in the laundry basket’s fabric liner that I neglected to repair awhile ago. Hallelujah! If It it had not been for the Lord, I might have washed my Fitbit. I’ve lost a day and a half of tracking...bummer. BUT, I’m so thankful I found my Fitbit with FindMyFitbit. One of the few Apps that I‘m glad I purchased. FindMyFitbit found my Fitbit!!!

Goal to make this short and sweet. 8 year old comes in crying that his Fitbit ace2 is lost. He removed it from the band to show his friend in the woods in our neighborhood. Spent an hour riding around the hood following his “route” home. Beside the route he showed me, the only other fact I had was that he stuffed it in his shirt along with a can of WD40. The lube was for his scooter and his friends bikes. Wish I saw through what happened but I didn’t. So off I go with a free app but with no luck but then I tried FindMyFitbit out of desperation, and me and my older kid start finding a strong signal in the garage. We’re starting to think that we’re being scammed but the signal is consistent. So “hot” signal in and around the garage door (shelf nearby). Maybe inside the house on the other side of the garage door? Maybe downstairs in the basement below? Nothing. Back to the garage. It’s got high heat on the shelf, near the can of WD40? Total scam right! So I pick the can up and flip it over and find the Fitbit magnetically attached to the bottom of the can! App totally worked. Thank you! and hope ya’ll enjoyed the story! Thank you!

I live in a large house. FindMyFitbit never went cold and would go warmer and hot at the same places. On different floors. Yeah. Total waste of $6.00 and I’m still out my Fitbit. Don’t waste your money. I can’t believe these other reviews are real.

UPDATE: After leaving a 1 star rating because I could not find it (after it going hot near my closet in the basement bedroom, then near a bed, etc) I went to a main floor bathroom this morning. There it was! Thinking back to my frustration last night, I realized it went hot on different floors because it goes through ceilings. Where it went hot downstairs was directly under where it actually was. It was not even on the floor but on a vanity. EXACTLY, and I mean EXACTLY, where my run down Fitbit flex button (wasn’t even in the band) actually was. EXACTLY. So, I was not happy last night. Left a bad review...prepared to order a new Fitbit today and realized....wow, it did work. So, changed my review from 1 to 5 stars. It goes through walls AND ceilings.......and exactly to where it is. In other words, you have to be smart enough to use it and I wasn’t. LOL

My wife got me a Fitbit 115u for my birthday last year. This month I noticed the watchband starting to fail so I ordered a replacement last week to be delivered Tuesday (3-12). I work a physical job on a farm not an office cubicle. So of course the band failed Monday the day before and it was lost at work that morning. The afternoon I had time to look for it so I downloaded FindMyFitbit . I retraced my steps several times without success. That night I ordered a replacement Fitbit. Tuesday afternoon I found the band but no fit bit. I had walked over it before the snow melted and exposed the band. I figured the melting snow broke the Fitbit and destroyed the signal. Turns out I was wrong. This morning feeding livestock I found the Fitbit next to a cattle bunk a few feet from where I found the band. While using the find my Fitbit app Monday afternoon I had literally walked two steps from where the Fitbit was found 2 days later. But no hit from FindMyFitbit . And the Fitbit was still turned on and battery had not died laying two days in melting snow. Now with the Fitbit on my wrist when I turn it on FindMyFitbit it still won’t pick up the signal a foot between phone and Fitbit. I would give it Zero stars if I could. Very disappointed it failed and I spend 6$ and change including sales tax. I have no confidence in FindMyFitbit if the band ever fails again resulting in another loss.

I am impressed with FindMyFitbit. Yesterday while cleaning up around the house I realized my Fitbit wasn’t on my wrist. I had been having issues with the band and meant to replace it but hadn’t gotten around to it. In any case I downloaded several Free apps and based on where I found my device I can tell you the free ones didn’t work for me. Finally in desperation I bought this one. It kept telling me that I was “Hot” in a certain area in my dining room so my family looked everywhere multiple times to no avail. Last night I kind of gave up but my band was in syncing range still this morning so I figured I would give it 1 more try. Same thing - Hot in the dining room then I realized that another reviewer mentioned the signal going through walls so I looked in my sons room that shares a wall with my dining room. Yes! The signal strengthened and took me to his pillow! I had given him a new pillowcase and it fell in. He was literally sleeping on it lol. So thank you for FindMyFitbit and thank you to the reviewer you mentioned about the signal going through walls. Check adjacent rooms!

I found my Fitbit in less than 2 minutes. FindMyFitbit is really easy to use and starts working immediately. I bought FindMyFitbit the same day I got my Fitbit because I knew I would lose my Fitbit at some point (a friend told me about FindMyFitbit . She got FindMyFitbit a few months after she got her Fitbit) and sure enough the wristband came undone on my Alta somewhere in my house. I launched FindMyFitbit and found my Fitbit in a couple minutes. I was so surprised when I found it in the laundry basket! It must have fallen off when I was scooping the clothes out of the basket to do laundry. I highly recommend FindMyFitbit to anyone who owns a Fitbit. Having to buy a new Fitbit is not cheap and it's nice to have some peace of mind knowing that I'll never have to worry about losing my Fitbit again. For just a few dollars FindMyFitbit is a great insurance policy. One tip: make sure you follow the step by step instructions in FindMyFitbit . Walking very slowly around my house was how I got FindMyFitbit to work so well and so quickly (the instructions in FindMyFitbit said to walk slowly). Thank you, inventor of FindMyFitbit. So worth every penny.

I had worn my Fitbit Ionic to work and I worked cashier on the final weekend before Christmas. On my lunch break I had noticed that it wasn’t on my wrist and I panicked. Mainly because the our store was a complete mess and finding it would be like looking for a needle in a hay stack. I was desperate, I had received that Fitbit as a gift from my mother and it cost her every penny she had to buy it for me. I downloaded other free apps (they didn’t really find my phone bad quality literally couldn’t find my FitBit signal when it was right under my nose), so I bought this one! So happy I did it actually works!! I was HOT around my register but I couldn’t seem to find it underneath the clothes but my HOT was nearly full when I put it on the counter (it’s actually very accurate FindMyFitbit says it’s 3-5 feet away when it says HOT) when I looked directly below my register I found it lying there and the interchangeable straps somehow unsnapped and it fell off without me even noticing! 10/10 recommend this!!! Walk slowly to it’ll take a few seconds to update the signal!!

As others have mentioned, I was very skeptical and unsure if worth the cost. Would it really work as well as they say it does?? Yes!! I hadn't had my Fitbit on for a few days, was away for the weekend and didn't remember to put it on. In my mind, it was in one of the usual spots: by the bed, bathroom counter, on the dresser. Today went to put it on and it was no where to be found. Walked around the house, kitchen, living room etc, though I didn't remember taking it off there. Last clue I had was it synced a dog walk last week before I was away. With the battery on the low side I knew if I was going to try I needed to do it now. One last look over the house and didn't see it so downloaded FindMyFitbit . Turned it on in my kitchen and within minutes I found it on a table adjacent to the dining room. It was in plain sight but not somewhere I would have taken it off or put it. No clue how it got on that table but glad its found! I suppose it may have eventually been noticed, but FindMyFitbit works GREAT to find it right away.

Updated: Worked a second time!

I didn't notice my Flex was missing out of my band until I got to work. I saw according to the Fitbit AP that I supposedly got 2 hours of sleep. So I knew at that point it was lost sometime in the night. I came home and searched my bed, my room, bathroom, etc. it was nowhere. Tried to sync it with the Fitbit AP with no luck there either. As a last resort I Googled find my Fitbit and this AP came up highly recommended. Very skeptically I downloaded it then walked all around my bedroom bath area to no avail. Walked all round the house, cold, warm, cold, warm. Finally to the kitchen, with phone in hand, and it says HOT right by my kitchen table! My purse, gym bag and a basket of clean clothes are on the table. I start with the clothes, then ransack my purse and gym bag. Nothing 😢. As a last resort I dump both purse and gym bag and check the lining in them. Miraculously it's between the bag material and the lining of the gym bag. Tiny hole in the lining it squeezed through. I would have NEVER found it without this AP! No idea how it got there. So weird. If I could give this AP 6 stars I would. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

You guys rock! This Fitbit just helped me to lose a significant amount of weight and it is like my best friend. To misplace it was really upsetting. Anyway, I immediately figured out what I had done to lose it. It’s not waterproof, so I take it off just as I’m getting in the shower and I put it on top of my clothes that I pile on the bathroom counter. Clearly I didn’t put it back on my wrist and I grabbed those clothes and threw them in my clothes hamper... with my Fitbit! I’ve been so busy the last few days that I haven’t even had a chance to start looking for it and I was worried that the battery might be dead but thankfully it still had a little bit of charge left! It was so precise, I was a bit surprised. But there it was, in the laundry basket. And this is one time that I was happy to be a procrastinator about doing the laundry!! I thought for sure that I was going to have to spend a lot of time hunting this thing down and I found it within five minutes. Probably the best six dollars I’ve spent in a long time. THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!

I had my doubts. I’d just set up my Fitbit 3 days ago after I’d bought it 4 years ago and forgot about it. I was shopping and looked at my wrist and it was gone. I looked everywhere but didn’t find it. As a last resort I bought FindMyFitbit and not finding my Flex with violet band in the house I used FindMyFitbit outside. I walk my dog in the back of my complex which is all natural with trees shrubs grass and leaves. Today they cut a few trees down. I walked slowly along where I usually walk back and forth and it was always cold. It was dark and I only had the phone flashlight and I didn’t have much battery on my phone when I saw warmer. I got excited but it kept going back to cold. I was ready to head in and it said hot! I kept walking to the house where I’d already looked around and there it was laying on the ground where I’d uncovered my rollator! Definitely recommend FindMyFitbit! I’d already been looking on EBay for a replacement! Well worth the cost of FindMyFitbit ! 😀👍

Tonight I looked all over the house for my Fitbit Versa2 watch and I couldn’t remember where I left it. I looked all over our three story house, but I couldn’t find it. I bought FindMyFitbit and started walking around the two main floors. FindMyFitbit would mostly say “cold” but once in a while it would say “warm.” I came down to the first floor and again mostly cold, then a warm, and then a “hot” light. I walked around this one overstuffed chair in the family room, then I walked away and it went to warm. WHAT? I looked under the chair and there it was. I said, “How did I do that? Take my watch off and it ended up on the floor?” So I’m blaming this all on our dog Lilly. She must have knocked it off the cushion and under the chair. That’s the only explanation. Now it doesn’t matter much, I’m happy, I have the watch and everyone’s asleep. I’ll tell them the story in morning. Thanks for FindMyFitbit . It’s well worth the money. JC

I read one review and took a chance on FindMyFitbit. I knew that my Fitbit was either in the house entrance, yard or car...possibly in the washer or dryer...yikes... I searched each area twice then searched apps...tried 3 FREE apps with not even a blip to alert me. As soon as FindMyFitbit downloaded it showed I had a Fitbit charge 2... I selected it and walked around the house a little bit near the front door it alerted me to ‘cold’... so I headed outside and it got warmer walked around my car and when I opened the back door it got hot... I searched my back seat again and still couldn’t find it, thought I was going blind or something... did it again and it was still hot so I looked again and it was hanging on the seatbelt strap! I had just hooked up my dog seat cover. You def have to have an idea of the area it might be but $6 is worth the peace of mind. It’s been raining so I didn’t want it to be in the yard.

I lost my fit bit a week ago. I’ve been having issues with the strap and have been doing a lot of work on the house so I figured it just fell off somewhere. I knew it was in the house because when I would get home I could still sync to my fit bit. My wife and I both spent multiple times looking for it (close to an hour once) and I was to the point that I was getting ready to purchase a new fit bit when I decided to search FindMyFitbit Store. I was able to find my fit bit in less than five minutes using FindMyFitbit, it locates the fit bit down to the foot, even inches. Don’t be distracted by the red “hot” letters, you want to focus on the redline to be as full as possible. Also don’t forget to think about floors in your house FindMyFitbit said I was hot but I was right above my fit bit which turned out to be in a storage bin in the garage in the basement when I was looking on the 1st floor. What an amazing app!
