Summary
Google has rolled out Google Health as the new app for Fitbit and Pixel Watch users, replacing the longtime Fitbit app alongside the launch of the screenless Fitbit Air tracker.
£9.99-a-month Google Health Premium unlocks many of the new platform’s headline features, including Gemini-led workout plans, follow-along workouts and sleep audio; new Fitbit devices include three months free.
Google Health adds daily AI-generated readiness and workout prompts, health alerts for low or high heart rate and irregular rhythms, plus a medical-information section users can link to providers.
Fitbit Air is positioned as the most compatible device for the new platform, while Charge 6, Inspire 3 and newer Pixel Watches also work; older Versa 4 and Sense 2 models are expected to lose support over time.
The shift extends Google’s multiyear integration of Fitbit after its acquisition, moving users from Fitbit accounts and hardware toward a broader Google-branded health ecosystem.
