Google Assistant has arrived, but it's unavailable in your region

[LoganGeorge]

As in the title, after a nice update to the sense, the option for google assistant was added in. The unfortunate finding though was that it is unavailable in my region (according to the app), however on the website it clearly states that my country (Australia) should have access. After talking to an online representative, they came to the conclusion that it would not be available to Australians until late December. Where are these ETA's coming from? Where is the release schedule?

You can put the Google Assistant language to your desired language once you get it set up on the watch.

However if you logout of the Fitbit phone app you may have to set it up again.

I changed my region under language setting to US and got it working no problem. Didn't need to change it anywhere else.
