I absolutely love my Fitbit Flex! I’ve had it since February and I wear it daily. The only complaint I have is how easily it can come off if I snag it just right. I’ve had a few close encounters where I almost lost it. Talk about panic mode! The first time my Flex accidentally caught the strap of my handbag. The second time it caught the grocery bag as I slipped the bag on my forearm. Clearly, I thought I was “Incredible Hulkette” carrying 50 bags out of the grocery store sans buggy. The third time, I thought I lost it in Wal-mart. I furiously drove back to see if it were in the path of my grocery list. As I was getting out of my car, to my surprise, it was on the side of my seat. *Praise Break and thank you, Jesus!* because this is a $100+ investment. I looked online to see if I could find something that could fix this issue.
I Googled “Fitbit fastener and clasp” and came up with quite a few options. Amazon and eBay had a variety. Of course I went with colorful! :)
Here’s a closer look of the fasteners and clasps. So excited that I found these! There were so many fun colors to choose from. Just slide the fastener on the band and it will snug your band like a watch fastener. The clasp is interchangeable too! I love my free gift from the company! I sent half of them to my sister to have a little bling fun! You can find the clasps and/or fastener accessories here, and here, and also here—or you can Google and see what you can find.
And BTW…
Tory Burch for Fitbit has launched!
You can find the new Tory Burch Fitbit collection here. I think I have enough bands (4) for now, but here are a few of the accessories that I like:
Fitbit also has some new, cool features:
- Run stats, route maps, and music controls. Yesssss…to MobileRun tracking!
- Exercise logging and workout calendar.
- New tracking feature with barcode scanner, calorie coaching, meal shortcuts, and expanded food database.
The new features have already rolled out to Apple users. Don’t worry Android users, our update is coming soon. Remember the saying, “first is the worst, second is the best”? Well that’s how I feel about Android being tardy to the party. At least Fitbit gets more time to work out the kinks with the new features so when it gets to us…it will be running smoothly!

This was the exact problem I had with my fitbit. The clasp broke, so I went and bought the different bands, and the clasps on them were even more cheaply made I thought. Plus mine stopped holding a charge. Bummed me out because I really loved my fitbit flex!
Des, you probably could have gotten a new one if it was still under warranty. I love my new accessories because I don’t want to spend another $100 on a new one. The bands also work for Garmin VivoFit!
I have never heard of FitBit before but it looks like a very cool product. I love the bright bold colors!
Thank you, Louida! Color is a must! :)
I just recently heard of FitBit and thought about getting one of these. Good to know that you need a fastener too.
You will love it, Lisa! It definitely helps get you moving! The fasteners are worth the investment. You won’t regret it!
I REALLY want a fit bit. I need to bite the bullet and just get one already!
You should TOTALLY get one, Krystal! I love mine and I don’t go a day without it. I’ll drive all the way home if I forget it! Lol It’s so worth it and the new features makes it even better!
