If you replace your dog's Fi Collar, you can always keep their historical data and profile or set up a new profile.
Prior to starting activation for a replacement collar:
- Ensure you are running the most up-to-date version of the Fi app.
- You can check this in your phone's app store. If there is a newer app version, you will be prompted to update the app.
- Ensure you've unlinked the previous Fi module. Two Fi collars cannot be active at one time for one pet. See: How Do I Unlink a Fi Collar? If this is already done, proceed to the proper steps below.
- Please note, you should never unlink and then activate a Fi Collar as a troubleshooting step. If you need help with your dog's collar, please Contact Fi Customer Success.

Steps After Activation
Ensure your Fi GPS/LTE Subscription/Membership has transferred over. This should happen automatically, although if you login with an account different than the one used for the initial purchase, you may need additional assistance. If the subscription for your Series 2 does not auto assign, you'll see a yellow banner prompting you to activate a GPS subscription. If you already have a subscription/membership, please Contact Fi Customer Success, for further assistance.
