In a recent review, we had no problem pairing the Fitbit Charge HR with the Moto G4 Plus using the Fitbit App. This time we will set up the popular fitness band with the ZUK Z1 in a similar manner.

Let's see if the ZUK Z1 can support the Fitbit Charge HR as well.

To make both devices start communicating, first you will need to download the right App. A simple search for 'Fitbit' on Google Play will allow you to easily find and install the Fitbit App.

  

When you launch the App, you will access the login screen. Since we already have a Fitbit account, logging in is quick, and you go straight to the main dashboard.

  

  

To add the Fitbit Charge HR to the Fitbit App, tap on the three vertical lines at the top left of the App and select 'Devices' from the list. Then select the '+' sign on the Devices tab and the App will ask you which Fitbit tracker you want to set up - choose 'Charge HR'.

  

Now, select 'Set up your Fitbit Charge HR and agree to the terms & policies. To allow the App to detect the Fitbit Charge HR device and sync with your ZUK Z1, you need to turn on Bluetooth from your phone. The Fitbit App then walks you through a quick start-up for the Fitbit Charge HR, including a nice video on how to set up the charging cable.

  

  

Then enter your name and the App will run you through the software update. Since this process happens over Bluetooth, you will have to place both the Fitbit Charge HR device and the ZUK Z1 close to each other until the update is completed.

The App then continues to present more useful tips on using the Fitbit Charge HR as well as letting you customize which wrist you want to wear it on and what type of clock face to use. The clean and simple illustrations make the contents easy to read and understand. 

  

  

Once setup has completed, the App will be able to sync automatically with the Fitbit Charge HR.
