- Fitbit is reviewing its application
- Health metrics have been renewed to look cleaner and more modern
- Fitbit has also brought the deadline of the Google account switch at 2026
After a fairly gloomy race, there are two good news for Fitbit users this week. The company has reviewed its health metrics in the application, and users can keep their Fitbit accounts for a little more.
The very necessary update of the application of the application was detected by 9to5google, which reports a series of radical changes in the application. There is a new introduction page that shows its health metrics compared to its personal range.
Fitbit has also abandoned the design of two tabs and trends, with today’s page that now shows its metrics, personal range indicators and a more elegant list for respiratory rate, blood oxygen, resting heart rate, the variability of heart rate and the variation of skin temperature.
If you take advantage of any of these statistics, you will obtain the usual trends graphics, but with opinions for week, month and year instead of seven, 30 and 90 days.
FITBIT account deadline extension
Apart from a new application, Google has also announced that it is extending the deadline to change to a Google account, pushing it to 2026.
In an email seen by Techradar, Google has written to the clients that indicate: “As we have previously shared, Fitbit is now part of Google, and the holders of the Fitbit account must make the transition to Google accounts to continue using Fitbit. If you want to continue using Fitbit, you must move to a Google account before February 2, 2026 For Fit Bitb, you must also move to a Google account. “
In 2022, Google confirmed that the accounts would be eliminated by 2025. Although we did not have a specific date previously, this is definitely an extension of that period.
It is welcome news for Fitbit fans, which otherwise have appeared greatly at some time. Google announced that put to Sundset Fitbit Smartwatches in favor of its Google Pixel clock line and has abandoned Fitbit.com as an online store.
More recently, a battery overheating problem with certain Fitbit devices forced a software update that has drastically reduced battery life in some models, and users report that their devices no longer last a full day with a single load.
Scripture is still on the wall for Fitbit, but these last developments create a relief of rare light.
