I too have returned my Fitbit Versa 4. It is a downgrade from the other Fitbit models. No third party apps is ridiculous.  Why would you provide a lesser product when putting out the next generation of watches? Please fix this. Do better Fitbit.

So 2 and a half years later, and still not a single blip from fitbit/google about this?

This is the single most disappointing product I have *ever* purchased!

Well, at least now it is possible to buy a decent android wear watch with 4-5 days of battery life. Obviously not from google/fitbit, who only have 20 hours of battery life!!

My Versa 4 has officially stopped working. It will no longer hold a
charge. Never had this happen before with a smart watch. Did multiple
resets & nothing.

My Versa 3 just died so I was sadly forced to get the Versa 4 with the knowledge that there are still NO third-party apps available.  WTH???  Such a downgrade to not have Starbucks and the ability to control Spotify from my watch.  I am so disappointed and so unhappy with this.  Please give us the option to use third party apps that are available on the other watches.  Not cool!  I can't believe this hasn't been addressed.  It's been at least 3 years?  Come on, do better and give the people what they want.  Makes no sense why third-party apps would be removed when the "new" version is supposed to be an upgrade.  I also miss the flashlight app.  😞

Stop making this smart watch dumb. Acknowledge your paying customers and fix this glaring mistake. 2,500 votes and hundreds of comments are significant enough to be addressed. 

If the customer is more than a piggy bank to Fitbit - ACKNOWLEDGE AND FIX THIS. 

 

I will return my new versa 4 if this issue is not addressed within a timely manner.

Hello Fitbit!

It's been over two years when are we getting third party apps back?

Spotify is a must!
