Can you reply to texts on Fitbit with iPhone?

Answered by Robert Flynn

You can reply to texts on your Fitbit device if it is paired with your iPhone. Quick replies are a convenient feature that allows you to respond to messages directly from your Fitbit device without having to take out your phone. However, please note that not all Fitbit devices support quick replies, so make sure to check if your specific device is compatible.

To set up quick replies, you need to ensure that you have the Fitbit app installed on your iPhone and that your Fitbit device is properly connected to your phone. Once these requirements are met, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Fitbit app on your iPhone.
2. Tap on the profile icon in the top left corner.
3. Scroll down and select the Fitbit device you want to set up quick replies for.
4. Tap on “Notifications” and then “App Notifications.”
5. Find the messaging app you want to enable quick replies for and enable the toggle switch next to it.
6. If quick replies are supported for that app, you will see an option to customize your responses. Tap on it.
7. Here you can edit or create your own quick replies. Fitbit provides some default options, but you can add your own personalized responses as well. Keep in mind that there may be character limitations for each quick reply.
8. Once you have customized your quick replies, save the changes.

Now, when you receive a text message notification on your Fitbit device from a supported messaging app, you can choose one of the pre-set quick replies to send as a response. Simply tap on the reply option and select the appropriate quick reply. Your response will then be sent to the sender.

It is important to note that quick replies only work for supported messaging apps that send notifications from your iPhone to your Fitbit device. If a particular messaging app does not support quick replies, you won’t be able to respond using this feature.

Additionally, quick replies may not be available on all Fitbit devices, so make sure to check the specifications of your specific device to see if it supports this feature.

Quick replies on Fitbit devices can be a handy way to respond to texts quickly and conveniently without having to reach for your iPhone.
