Make phone calls on the Sense series

I had a fitbit blaze, i loved it, had for a couple of years then my husband bought me galaxy watch, it needs charging everyday, sposed to be every 4 but the point of this is that my fitbit blaze is still going strong as I passed it on to my daughter and she loves it also, the only reason I changed was the facility to answer the phone on the watc

I just saw that the on-wirst call will be available for the new Versa 4 and Sense 2 but it seems like it won’t be for the "older" sense and versa 3...What can I say? Only one: probably really money rules the world 😞

My understanding is that we will only be able to receive in wrist calls, until the Google Release of the Pixel, then two apps will be needed, one for Pixel, one for the Fitbit software on the Pixel. 

 

Please remember when the Versa 3 and Sense was released, we where told that we will be able to make calls.

I own an iPhone. I can receive texts, but not send a quick reply. I can receive phone calls but not make them. Is there any way you could create an update or special app for use with my Sense model and iPhone 12 ProMax?

This is a critical feature me having moved from an Apple Watch I really miss being able to call people using the assistant and you can answer calls on the Fitbit sense so why can’t you make calls too!! It also separates the sense and the Versa

I have paid £219 for a Fitbit Smartwatch Sense 2 and am shocked that it cannot make outgoing calls, only receive calls! I think an outgoing calls feature should be included on the Sense,2 watch as many cheaper watches have outgoing calls feature. Can Fitbit do an update to allow outgoing calls on existing already purchased Sense 2 watches?
