Can You Accept Calls on Fitbit Versa and Sense?

Fitbit smartwatches don’t feature built-in SIM slots but they connect to your phone to assist in answering calls.

The process of accepting calls on Fitbit is the same as on your phone. Simply, tap the green button to accept calls and the red button to reject calls.

Ensure your Fitbit and phone stay connected because if they are not you won’t get call notifications.

Once you pick up a call, just talk, your caller automatically hears you thanks to the built-in microphone and you can hear him/her through your wireless headsets.

Best Fitbit for Calls

I would recommend the Fitbit Versa 4 and Sense 2 for making and receiving calls.

How Does Fitbit Calls Work?

When a call reaches your phone, it is pushed to your Fitbit as a notification, on the watch tap the green telephone icon to receive or the red telephone icon to reject the call. Answering calls on Fitbit smartwatches is possible thanks to the built-in microphones, which aids in communication.
