Allow Charge 3 to accept the call with speaker phone mode

I just updated my Fitbit Charge 3 with the last firmware. I noticed a new feature was added to accept the call or decline the call. Accepting the call allows the phone to connect to the call.

 

What would be cool and easy to implement is a third option to accept the call with the speaker phone on.

 This is exactly what I need. Doesn't make sense to accept a call with my charge 3 from 2 meters away if it isn't a call in speaker mode.

I want the ability to accept calls with speaker on. This should be default

I'd like the ability to answer calls and receive texts to be as good as the Apple Watch as I prefer everything else about the Fitbit.

When Im receiving call on watch, I want to talk with free hands, so please, add possibility to andswer call via band and make it speakerphone, so I can talk without touching my phone. Thank You very much 🙂
