The iPhone supports a limited set of Bluetooth profiles: iOS: Supported Bluetooth profiles - Apple Support

You can use the Fitbit app to set up a tracker with your new or existing Fitbit account. After setup, your tracker will sync its data with the Fitbit app, allowing you to view your stats, log food, and more.


Unlike standard Bluetooth devices such as headsets, your Fitbit tracker must be set up directly through the Fitbit app and not through the Bluetooth settings on your iOS device. You will not see your tracker when you look at the list of Bluetooth devices connected to your iOS device. If you do try to set up your tracker using Bluetooth instead of the Fitbit app, you'll receive an error that says "Incorrect Pin or Password Error."
