Conclusion

Versa is one of the most used and popular Fitbit watches. It has an in-built altimeter sensor. An altimeter sensor helps to find the altitude of any substance. In this case, the watch will display your altitude while you are trekking, and thus it has an altimeter sensor which is a hole behind the watch. Please do not insert anything in that hole as it will damage the smartwatch.

If you cannot perform any of the above steps because your Fitbit is not responding, you need not worry. Just connect your watch to the charger using the USB port. Now try pressing the buttons again to switch it on (either you see the logo or you feel the vibration). If it is not charging, you should check for the chord and replace it immediately if damaged. Then try to restart your Fitbit Versa using the steps, and it will run successfully.
