It this update also for the Fitbit Blaze?

If so, you guys are so Awesome.

If not pls consider adding this option to the Blaze.

Again Thanks So Much.

Unfortunately they are almost definitely not adding replies to text on the blaze.

Although I'm glad that this was added to fitbitOS, it is only quick replies and there are only 5 of them.  If we are going to be limited to only having quick replies, it needs to be a lot more than 5.

How do you get the update?

[Karenja1]

Threw my computer

[Kitnpawz704]

So does this mean nothing for Apple. Of course not, 👎👎👎
GEE THANKS A HEEP!

Suggestion would be to have full reply conversations on the versa like the apple watch  

[D_man]

We need iOS quick replies on the Versa - surely someone can figure this out, it's 2018 c'mon people!

how about adding hardware on new versions to reply by voice ... https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Suggestions/how-to-add-significat-functionality-with-old-sch...

[Karenja1]

It would be great to update all Fitbit products to respond to text
messages, even if its just the quick response to text messages.

I like your idea. I just hope we can get the first request, especially to
Blaze. Reason being because it has been an on going request.

[Kitnpawz704]

Yes maybe some auto made ones more frequent things that are very common to say sorry and brief like
"Busy, call u later" TTYL, ttys, call me later, see you tonight, see you soon, etc etc etc.

Yes exactly

[Rich_Laue]

How does the AW do it? Can Fitbit implement this without infringing on patents? 

Is your request different from the current ones? 

Reply to text messages (scribble/keyboard

This would require a microphone to be added. 

Voice Text for Versa - To respond msg

[Karenja1]

 There should be the ability to reply to text messages on the Blaze.

Again over the years and months there is enough votes to have this feature added.

[Rich_Laue]

That is, if it is even possible to implement? 

[Limesti]

Yes! I don't know about a keyboard but quick reply options that you can set up on the phone app, or speach to text option would be amazing! 

[Karenja1]

Yes it would be.

[Kitnpawz704]

You can't have speech to text without a microphone they would have to make a new version with a microphone and it probably won't be water proof so you would get to choose between the two, my question is why can't they implement an apple you down load that you can set up your own quick replies, if you can add your own photos I an app can't someone develops an app that allows for you to make your own because fitbit can make a few quick ready made replies too choose from can't they, this is 2018

Not speech just scribble keyboard or keyboard

[Karenja1]

I would just settle for the quick response to text messages

[Rich_Laue]

For what tracker do you want this feature @Karenja1 quick response is working on both the Ionic and Versa. 

[Kristy79]

For versa ...maybe more than quick response
The android and apple try to compare to each other so maybe will
happen with update ....??? More is possible with every 1

[Karenja1]

The Blaze. We have been asking for this before the Iconic or Versa.

[Kitnpawz704]

Something please someone come up with something it's ridiculous
