Fitbit Sense ECG and Google Home in Australia

[Heist]

Hello I upgraded my ionic to a fitbit sense. I'm in Australia and the main features I'm after is Google home and the ECG. I tried searching both the web and forums. Is their any information or an eta this features will be available in Australia? Thank you

Thanks for the info.  Got to say they should put a label on the aus boxes to let people know that's the case.  The _only_ reason I paid extra for a sense was for that feature.  I'm now considering returning the watch.  Very unimpressed.
