Please enable emergency calling on Fitbit Sense. This is the biggest disappointment of this smart watch.

Welcome to the Fitbit community. 

 

Sounds like you want to make a feature request.

Even better this is the right suggestion to vote for. Posted in November 2017, 305 votes, only Reviewed by Moderator.

 

We have also this, posted in 2016, Not Currently Planned, that is very similar

 

Having said this I feel that nothing is going to be further implemented on Sense as Fitbit could be currenly focues only on the next Pixel Watch, running Wear OS hence much more capable than Fitbit OS.

Just seen the latest long Apple advert which focuses solely on the emergency calling aspect of their watch.

Essentially rendering Fitbit devices useless as they don't offer this facility and apparently don't intend to implement it for any of the many millions of existing devices if @SunsetRunner  is correct.

Instead Fitbit have been working on offering snore detection.

Probably most people given the choice would prefer to be rescued than know if they snored.

@SunsetRunner Even Wear OS doesn't have it built-in but at least there's the option of the app Noonlight. Too bad the app isn't on Fitbit.

@eezeepee unfortunately the app can't exist due to limitations of Fitbit OS API whose development looks stagnant since long time.
