ViWizard Audio Converter: Why Necessary for Versa User?
"We are continuing to explore other music streaming options to further meet the needs of our users outside the U.S. but do not have any details to share at this time. Watch this space!"- from a Fitbit staff in 2017
5 years passed and we haven't seen any progress yet. From my perspective, there's not much possibility that Apple will become Fitbit's partner and let you play Apple Music on Versa since Apple has its own smartwatch business. That's why ViWizard Audio Converter is necessary for you. On the other hand, if you want to listen to some audiobooks while you are jogging or working, ViWizard is also capable of convert iTunes audiobooks and Audible audiobooks to common formats so that you can download them to your Fitbit too. So go get ViWizard and let it be your Fitbit's best mate!
