You deserve praise, you’re one of the only people that actually showed what the new update does. AND YOU ACTUALLY TOOK A CALL! This watch is everything I need for an advanced fitness tracker, thanks.

[@TinkerForward]

Thanks! I appreciate your comments! I hope this video helped you learn more about the update and that you found it useful.

[@omgtkseth]

Thanks. Lots of idiots are uploading videos saying you can now take calls on the phone, but no one actually demonstrated it.

[@kimberlyrasner8361]

After watching several videos to figure out how to use talk using my watch, yours finally answered my question. I was literally about to return the watch. Thank you so much 😊

[@sergiopereiradinis9579]

It was not easy to confirm we could actually do on-wrist call on the versa 3. Thank you!

[@marinemom4156]

Thanks for the shout out! I just purchased the Versa 3 and will follow your videos for more information.

[@TinkerForward]

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@rishabupadhyay5048]

Thank you for demonstrating calling option in this video. I could not find anyone demonstrating this. Helpful!

[@TechShmoo]

Great update. I'm still waiting on audio replies from Google Assistant until I invest in a Sense. My other main concern is that the heartrate monitor of the Sense seems worse than my current Charge 4. Hope to see that improved as well.

[@myhazeleyezz6077]

Was having issues setting up voice calls. Your video helped! Thank you!

[@TinkerForward]

Great to hear the video was helpful!

[@tobybromfield3664]

Is there any difference between Google assistant and Alexa on the watch? Can one fo things the other can't?

[@tazzed4906]

I just got the versa 3 and have been really struggling to it alert me when my phone rings, receive a text or email. I have tried numerous things, such as logging out of fitbit, force stopping the app, resetting my fitbit w/o doing a factory reset. My Bluetooth shows Bluetooth controls then one minute the versa 3 doesn't show then it does but says I need an app to use it. I'm at a loss at what to do.

[@michaelhall7663]

Great but I can't wait for the update to allow the ability to make calls from the V3. Maybe a virtual e-sim card would make it possible?

[@TinkerForward]

That would be cool! We will wait and see.

[@brendacrawford260]

I was able to set it up on my iPhone 12 ,can’t wait to use it .

[@woofwoof2015]

Question can you do on wrist calls with it then?

[@felipeyanez7786]

This make it good value for Money. In Europe arrives in 2021

[@TinkerForward]

Its a great update! I bet it will be exciting when it arrives in Europe in 2021

[@Yhuns._isa]

Hi My app doesn't have the device lock option. how to go about it? I already tried reinstalling it but still no option. 😥 Hope you can help me. Thanks

[@MrArnmor]

Will versa 3 work with I phone.

[@violet-mp1mk]

Is there a way we can use the oxygen monitor all the time?

[@WanderingCamel]

nice review，looking forward new updates about this fitbit os

[@cacdacweber]

why my versa 3 don't have a Spo2 reading clock face?..

[@terry6532]

This helped me.

[@TinkerForward]

I'm glad it was helpful Terry! Thanks for watching! I have more useful fitbit tutorial videos coming in the next few weeks to help you get the most out of your fitbit.

[@jennifermosley9771]

Can you add contacts

[@faromusic7230]

Does Google assistant work from the Versa with an Iphone? To reply to messages for example!? please advise

[@thatdudedez6751]

NOTHING WORKS WITH AN IPHONE IF IT ISNT APPLE. ITS THE REASON EVERYONE HATES THEM

[@Stay_ClassyYT]

Great feature

[@TamimTech22]

Did the update did the heart rate sensor

[@TinkerForward]

Good to hear!

[@TamimTech22]

I meant to ask did the update fix the heart rate sensor

[@Jordan-lv5yb]

Hi nice videos

[@Kevin-uj9pz]

If the Apple Watch had a longer battery life, this would be a short video! You would say get the Apple Watch if you have an iPhone, thanks for watching. I can’t wait for the day that apple significantly improves battery!

[@lucybunce9061]

Does your phone need to be turned on for it to work?

[@TinkerForward]

Hi Lucy, yes your phone needs to be turned on and within bluetooth range of your Fitbit for it to work. Thanks for watching!

[@lucybunce9061]

@@TinkerForward ok thanks for the info... I’m thinking of getting a Fitbit versa 3 so this vid really helped 😁

[@stevenjonas1]

I've got android and texting just isn't working for me. It only allows me to open the text on my phone. I updated to 8.0 oreo and then the calling feature began to work but the texting still is not, any ideas?

[@TinkerForward]

Hi Steven, I believe the current android version is 11. (Thats what I'm running on my phone.) The texting for the watch may not work with 8.0 oreo. You want to make sure you have the latest Fitbit OS and Android versions installed to take advantage of all the features.

[@2007crf450r]

sad part is i bought a 35 dollar smartwatch that can make and receive calls from the watch . sad they dont have this option to call from the watch would make it the perfect watch oh well i guess im stuck with this versa 3 now

[@theavenger3363]

I’m a Fitbit fan but the software is very laggy and the UI is clunky. Not the best implementation in my book. Apple Watch 7 is in my crosshairs. Good luck in life to everyone.

[@sahilpanjwani2277]

Galaxy watch active 2 is much better at similar price

[@xestikia]

How come

[@MariaFlorenciaArg]

Also bigger and uglier...
