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.

Would love to be able to do quick responses to texts with my new Versa 2. I have an iPhone, but can’t do it on that platform.  Please include that ability in a future update for the Versa 2!  With Alexa on the Versa 2, even a voice reply to a text would be great! I know lots of folks who would be very happy when this is available. I don’t see why it is only for the Android devises.

Update for iPhone users to have quick reply features and the capability to use Alexa to respond to messages that include text, Facebook messenger, etc..

Having quick reply available for IOS users would be awesome. I would guess a lot of your users are IOS users and we’d sure like to use all the features available

I don't know why but Fitbit should take this idea into more consideration. I made this suggestion a long time back and many many other Fitbit users have agreed to it and made the same suggestion many times. I keep receiving emails that users suggestions are getting moved to a place where the suggestion has already been posted. But its getting moved to a place where the idea is not currently planned. what's the point in users making suggestions if they're not gonna be included. I really feel quick replies should be available for fitbit users who have iPhones as it makes our experience alot better. Fitbit should really think about the consumers who have ios and their experience with Fitbit without quick replies it's really difficult. They should be more aware and instead of moving suggestions and ignoring them, they should make a plan to put the actual suggestion in place. Quick Replies would make life a lot easier for those using iPhones. Saves a lot of time clicking a button on a watch instead of pulling your phone out. I hope Fitbit actually takes this into some consideration. I still believe Fitbit is a fantastic company when it comes to fitness trackers and smartwatches. I hope I don't have to think otherwise if they aren't looking at their customers' experiences.

The Versa 2 and other more expensive Fitbit devices should by now have the capabilities of responding the text messages.

I can see that people have already shared this suggestion over the span of two years, but the post is now locked. Nevertheless, I was pretty disappointed to spend money on a Versa 2 with the intention of using the Quick Replies feature, only to learn that this feature isn't available to iOS users. That's a pretty huge demographic to exclude!

The Versa 2 advertises having a quick replies feature, but that feature is only available to android users. Please apply that to iOS users as well - we pay the same amount of money for your device, therefore we should have access to the same features. Alternatively, you could refund every iOS customer who isn't able to use the full Versa 2 software

Enable quick replies for Versa devices on iOS. People have been asking for this since 2018. It's insane that we're now in 2020 and this basic feature is still "Not Currently Planned".
