Quick Replies for iOS Devices

[Bdcraw]

When will it be availible to reply with iOS for apple users. I noticed Versa can reply to text but it says only for android. I will never switch to android and the reply to text is the only thing that Fitbit is missing. Apple Watch does all the same plus reply to text and taking calls. Big miss on Fitbits part.

In android, you can send replys right from your watch. If fitbit somehow gets passed IOS's closed operating system, then IOS can do it too. There have been many many times when I want to just send a thumbs up to my friends to show that I am there, and quick reply will help a lot with this.

Would be a great asset to be able and answer texts received on the Sense by Alexa while you are on the go.

What is the status for this feature. This is the only new vid feature I could want and it would make me and many other people perfectly happy with Fitbit. Also, how many people are needed to vote on this feature for it to be applied. Right now over 1200 people have voted for this to be a feature

[JohnnyRow]

It's not a question of how many votes here, but maybe how many people lobby Apple to allow it.

I have been replied to in this topic by people and I have a question. Are there any plans to collaborate with Apple to get quick reply’s for iOS.

Please add the feature of Quick Message Response for Fitbit Charge 4 (that is paired with iphone). This will allow quick message response when receiving a text or call.

Many of the features related to notification responses (voice commands, quick responses, etc.) to anything other than Fitbit notifications can only be used with android devices, regardless of Fitbit model. These features should be made available on iPhones as well.

I would like quick replies to be available on my iPhone. Spending over $200 on a Versa3 is frustrating because I really like Fitbit, but this takes away an important feature.

[DavideFitbit]

Hi @rmhilal, thanks for sharing your suggestion about having the Quick Replies feature available with iOS devices too, this feature suggestion already exists so I’ve moved your post here as it is Not currently planned. This helps to keep the forums more organized. 

We appreciate all the input we receive from users and the team of developer is constantly monitoring the forums and the number of votes and feedback to keep track of popularity and demand over time.

Thank you for your participation in the Community.

Quick Reply is a feature where you can reply to messages from apps such as WhatsApp just from the watch itself. This feature only works on Android phones and not IOS/Apple phones.

This feature is only available for Android devices and not iOS devices. I really really hope this feature will be added as soon as possible as it can make our life easier and a better user experience. I'm pretty sure most of us have the same thoughts. Thank you, Fitbit for listening and taking our thoughts into consideration 🙂

I am hoping in the future the versa 2/FItbit products in general will be able to support text replies from iPhones. Thanks!
