How to Tell if Fitbit Alta Is Charging
- It takes between one to two hours to fully charge a Fitbit Alta, and you can check its battery level while it recharges by tapping the screen.

- If your Fitbit Alta is not charging properly, wipe the pins on the charging points of the tracker and charger with a clean, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol.

How to charge a Fitbit Alta
1. Connect the USB plug of the charger into a computer or wall adapter
2. Squeeze together on the clamps on the back of the charger to open them wide.
3. Align the pins on the back of the Alta with those set into the charger.
4. Release the clamps to leave the charger secured in place.
If the device gently vibrates, and you see a battery icon appear on the Fitbit Alta's screen, you have successfully connected the tracker to a power supply.
If you know you've connected the charger, but your Fitbit isn't charging, it might need to be cleaned. To clean it, take a clean, lint-free cloth and lightly dampen it with isopropyl alcohol. Wipe down the charging pins on both the charger and the Alta, and dry them afterwards.
Now go enjoy an hour or two not being tracked.
