Your Fitbit device comes preloaded with a variety of apps including Alarms, Weather, and Exercise. On certain devices, install additional apps using the Fitbit Gallery.
Apps can be published either publicly or privately. Publicly shared apps appear in the Fitbit Gallery search results, and are subject to Fitbit review. Privately shared apps, which are typically used for developer testing, can only be found by clicking a direct link to the app. Only install apps from sources you know and trust, and be mindful of what data you share with third parties.
If you have trouble setting up an app, see How do I set up and troubleshoot apps on my Fitbit device?
Following a careful assessment of the impact of new regulatory requirements, we have made the decision to remove the ability to install third-party apps and clocks from the Fitbit Gallery for users in the European Economic Area in June 2024. You still have access to a selection of Fitbit and Google apps. Users in other countries will not be impacted.
These changes affect the following Fitbit smartwatches:
- Fitbit Sense 2, Fitbit Sense
- Fitbit Versa 4, Fitbit Versa 3, Fitbit Versa 2, Fitbit Versa Lite, Fitbit Versa
- Fitbit Ionic (if you still have a Fitbit Ionic, click here for information on the voluntary recall)

Find and install new apps for your device in the Fitbit Gallery, which you access from the Fitbit app. The Gallery offers apps to address a variety of health, fitness, timekeeping, and everyday needs. For example, the Weather app allows you to check your local weather on your wrist. Additional apps are added periodically to the Gallery, so check back often to find new apps. To learn more about developing apps for the Gallery, see
dev.fitbit.com.
Some apps and clock faces require a paid subscription service or a one-time activation fee (to a developer). If a developer requires an activation fee, you may see a "Paid" label above the app or clock face description:

For these apps and clock faces, the developer will process and provide instructions for payment. Many developers use the third party service KiezelPay to accept payment for their app or clock face. You'll see a message on your Fitbit device asking you to visit a website and enter a code. For more information, see KiezelPay’s FAQ. If you decide not to purchase a paid clock face and want to remove the message, change your clock face. For more information, see How do I change the clock face on my Fitbit device?
Apps are shown in groups of 4 per screen on your Fitbit watch.
To change the placement of an app:
- On your watch, swipe to the left until you see the app you want to move.
- Press and hold the app until it increases slightly in size.
- Drag the app to a new location.
Many apps include options to adjust the notifications, allow certain permissions, and customize what it displays. Note that turning off any app permissions might cause the app to stop functioning.
