Quick Replies for iOS Devices

Status: Not currently planned Submitted by on ‎03-18-2018 07:46

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.

I would love to be able to quick reply from my fitbit with my Apple phone. That was one reason I bought the fitbit instead of the Apple Watch, was because it had this capability only to realize it was not available with the iOS system. Please get this functionality integrated with the iOS operating system!

I would love to have the option to do a quick reply on my versa when a text comes in. This is available on android devices but not on ios devices because apple is denying the request at this time. This is not a good selling point for them as I keep running into more and more issues. I love my versa but wish I could use it to its full capacity.

Please make quick replies available to users of the iPhone! This is one of the features that helped me choose the Versa and i’m disappointed to find I can’t use quick replies.

With so many of us getting Fitbits over Apple Watches because the tracking is better, makes no sense to not have quick replies for Apple. Come on guys, get it together please!

It’s not Fitbit who is keeping quick replies from happening, it is Apple. People should complain to Apple (though I’m sure they’ll advise buying an Apple Watch) so for now Fitbit really has no options. Blame Apple for this issue. I’m critical of Fitbit when they deserve it, but in this case, it’s not their fault.

I really think we all know Fitbit’s not really the holdup. We just want them to make it a priority and see what can be done about making these functions available for iPhone users

There is a message saying report to Fitbit if you want quick replies and they will send them to Apple.

I understand it’s Apple causing the hold up —— BUT Fitbit should not have advertised something they did not have yet

Hello! 

 

Any update @SantiR when quick replies will be released for iPhone? Is it roadmapped for 2019? 

 

Thanks!

Apple users need to be able to do quick replies too.  If not, I think there will be movement to another brand of device.
