What’s in the box

The detachable bands on Inspire 2 come in a variety of colors and materials, sold separately.
Set up Inspire 2
For the best experience, use the Fitbit app for iPhones and iPads or Android phones. To create a Fitbit account, you’re prompted to enter your birthdate, height, weight, and sex to calculate your stride length and to estimate distance, basal metabolic rate, and calorie burn. After you set up your account, your first name, last initial, and profile picture are visible to all other Fitbit users. You have the option to share other information, but most of the information you provide to create an account is private by default.
Charge your tracker
A fully-charged Inspire 2 has a battery life of 10 days. Battery life and charge cycles vary with use and other factors; actual results will vary. To charge Inspire 2:
- Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer, a UL-certified USB wall charger, or another low-energy charging device.
- Align the pins on the other end of the charging cable with the gold contacts on the back of Inspire 2. Gently press Inspire 2 into the charger until it snaps into place.
Charging fully takes about 1-2 hours. While the tracker charges, you can press the buttons to check the battery level. A fully-charged tracker shows a solid battery icon with a smile.

Placement for all-day wear vs. exercise
When you’re not exercising, wear Inspire 2 a finger’s width above your wrist bone. In general, it’s always important to give your wrist a break on a regular basis by removing your tracker for around an hour after extended wear. We recommend removing your tracker while you shower. Although you can shower while wearing your tracker, not doing so reduces the potential for exposure to soaps, shampoos, and conditioners, which can cause long-term damage to your tracker and may cause skin irritation.
For optimized heart-rate tracking while exercising:
- During a workout, experiment with wearing your tracker a bit higher on your wrist for an improved fit. Many exercises, such as bike riding or weight lifting, cause you to bend your wrist frequently, which could interfere with the heart rate signal if the tracker is lower on your wrist.
- Wear your tracker on top of your wrist, and make sure the back of the device is in contact with your skin.
- Consider tightening your band before a workout and loosening it when you’re done. The band should be snug but not constricting (a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially affecting the heart-rate signal).
Clip Placement
Wear Inspire 2 on or close to your body with the screen facing outward. Secure the clip tightly to a shirt pocket, bra, pants pocket, belt, or waistband. Try out a few different locations to see what’s most comfortable and secure for you. If you experience skin irritation when wearing Inspire 2 on your bra or waistband, clip it to an external piece of clothing instead, such as your belt or pocket.
Handedness
For greater accuracy, you must specify whether you wear Charge 5 on your dominant or non-dominant hand. Your dominant hand is the one you use for writing and eating. To start, the Wrist setting is set to non-dominant. If you wear Charge 5 on your dominant hand, change the Wrist setting in the Fitbit app: From the Today tab 
in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture Charge 5 tile Wrist Dominant.
Wear and care tips
- Clean your band and wrist regularly with a soap-free cleanser.
- If your tracker gets wet, remove and dry it completely after your activity.
- Take your tracker off from time to time.

Change the band
Inspire 2 comes with a small band attached and an additional large, bottom band in the box. Both the top and bottom bands can be swapped with accessory bands, sold separately on fitbit.com. For band measurements, see “Band size” on page 47. Most bands for Inspire and Inspire HR don’t fit Inspire 2. Check fitbit.com for certain bands that are compatible with the Inspire series. The Inspire clip accessory isn’t compatible with Inspire 2.
Remove a band
- Turn over Inspire 2 and find the quick-release lever.
- While pressing the quick-release lever inward, gently pull the band away from the tracker to release it.
- Repeat on the other side.
Notifications from your phone
Inspire 2 can show call, text, calendar, and app notifications from your phone to keep you informed. Keep your tracker within 30 feet of your phone to receive notifications. Up to 10 notifications are stored in the Notifications app on your tracker.
Set up notifications
Check that Bluetooth on your phone is on and that your phone can receive notifications (often under Settings Notifications). Then set up notifications:
- From the Today tab in the Fitbit app, tap your profile picture Inspire 2 tile.
- Tap Notifications.
- 3. Follow the on-screen instructions to pair your tracker if you haven’t already. Call, text, and calendar notifications are turned on automatically.
- To turn on notifications from apps installed on your phone, including Fitbit and WhatsApp, tap App Notifications and turn on the notifications you want to see.
Note that if you have an iPhone, Inspire 2 shows notifications from all calendars synced to the Calendar app. If you have an Android phone, Inspire 2 shows calendar notifications from the calendar app you chose during setup.
