Apps on Versa 4, where are they?

[wdprny]

Dear Fitbit,

Where the hell is support for third-party apps? Media and owners roasted you for the lack of support for them. Where is the support for them? Will it be coming? Are you willng to change it? The watches have so much potential, it's ruined by this stupid policy of yours.

I was happy with using Versa 3 as it had the option for additional apps, but it's ruined in Versa 4. What is wrong with Fitbit? Not to mention, the Fitbit app is recomending to check out the apps from gallery... which is another punch to the gut.

Hi @wdprny - this is a users forum, we don't know the logic behind the Sense 2 and Versa 4 dropping many of the features of previous watches. But thanks for the links.

Note that although the watches are nearly a year old there is still no SDK for them so users cannot create either their own free clock faces or apps using CLI, which is all that is left since Fitbit Studio was removed..

I was posting feedback here as Fitbit customer representative instructed me to do. I didn't even know that I can't even create the watch faces for those watches. What the hell is this kind of behaviour 🤨

So sadly I somehow choose the wrong subforum, which is helping Fitbit ignoring this issue that they created. Might repost.

@wdprny - all forums are user only. So it was the right place. Except you won't get a Fitbit response.
