Hi!

 

More on this here : https://dev.fitbit.com/blog/2020-09-24-announcing-fitbit-os-sdk-5.0/

 

Fitbit OS 5.0 is Fitbit's largest and most impactful smartwatch update since the launch of Fitbit Ionic in 2017. It brings meaningful improvements to the watch interface, including a stunning new visual system, faster navigation, and general usability improvements. We designed our updates to fit the unique squircle display, an exclusive feature for Sense and Versa 3.

 

Happy reading!

How can I verify 5.0 is installed? According to my app the current firmware version is 44.128.1.42.

@Trankster it was shipped with Fitbit OS 5 already on it. That's why the navigation is different then the Versa 2 (button brings you back to watchface, to move back a screen you need to now swipe from left to right).

Good to know. I had a Charge 3 previously, so the navigation change was not obvious to me.  What is confusing is the only system version I could find was firmware 44.xxx on both my Sense and Fitbit app.
