Google has officially replaced the standalone Fitbit app with its new Google Health application, a move that was previously announced. This transition integrates Fitbit's health tracking capabilities into a broader platform that includes Google's AI coaching features.
Many users have expressed dissatisfaction with the new interface. Common complaints include a reduced ability to customize the home screen, with limited space for displaying key metrics. A significant portion of the main page is now dedicated to AI-generated activity updates and coach notes.
This change has led to confusion and frustration among long-time Fitbit users who preferred the previous app's layout and functionality. The shift introduces a new user experience centered around Google's AI, which diverges from the established Fitbit interface.
