Hi @Sugarlipss - some simple things to try
If the last one isn't working or you are still not getting message notifications try
Logout of the Fitbit App and swipe off the active window and in Android clear the storage cache and force stop it and then restart the phone.
Make sure there are no other devices running the Fitbit App switched on.
Restart the watch by holding the button for 10 seconds till it vibrates and the logo appears and wait for it to start.
Login and wait for any pair, link or Fixit prompts and sync.

Welcome to the Fitbit community, @Sugarlipss!
Concerning Alexa on your Versa 4 I'd like to point out that you need an Amazon account use Alexa on your device. If you don't have one, you can register here:
Next please follow the instructions provided here to set up Alexa on your device:

To set up your Versa 4 for receiving on-wrist calls, I'd suggest having a closer look here to see how that's done:

This should be good start to start to overcome first hurdles on the points you mentioned. If you do have any questions about details, do not hesitate to come back.

Hi there, @Sugarlipss. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided in your post about the issue with your Versa 4.
If the steps recommend by @Guy_ and @Talahthas don't make any changes, please try the following:
With the steps above, what I want you to do is to pair your Versa 4 first to your phone's Bluetooth settings before any other Bluetooth device is connected to your phone.
