Hi there, @Shellbell2772. Welcome to the Community Forums. 

In answer to your inquiry, yes you can read messages on the Fitbit Sense.

In addition to what @wtksk8r has shared with you, here are other notification tips:

  • To delete 1 notification, tap the notification > Clear.
  • To delete all notifications at once, swipe to the top of your notifications and tap Clear All.
  • For longer notifications, tap the notification to see the full message.
  • To exit the notifications screen, press the back button or swipe up.
  • If you clear a notification from your device, the notification is removed from your phone's notification center. If you clear a notification from your phone, the notification is removed from your device.

For more detailed information, see How do I get notifications from my phone on my Fitbit device?

Hope that helps.

The Sense will show the subject, the sender and the first few lines of a message. When you tap the notification you get a slightly longer view of the message but not the full message for longer ones. That is about all you can see on the Sense. When you tap open on the Sense the message opens on the phone.
