Google could soon bring the new Fitbit app experience to free users

Google is enhancing the Fitbit app experience for free-tier users, expanding access to the redesigned app initially available only to Fitbit Premium subscribers and Public Preview participants. The latest version, v4.60, introduces features such as weekly cardio targets, new Fitness and Sleep tabs, and a Health tab for deeper health data analysis. Users will be able to switch between the standard and redesigned app versions. However, certain features, like the AI-powered "Ask Coach," will remain exclusive to Premium subscribers. The changes are part of Google's commitment to health and fitness technology and will soon include a broader audience in the Public Preview program.

Fitbit finally listened! Dark Mode arrives on Android after years of user demands

Fitbit has rolled out the dark mode feature in its Android app with version 4.50, allowing users to manually activate the "Dark Theme" or have it automatically adjust based on system settings. This update aims to reduce glare in low-light environments and may extend battery life on OLED devices. However, not all app elements are fully optimized for dark mode at launch, with some inconsistencies expected to be addressed in future updates. The rollout began on August 21. Additionally, Fitbit is exploring AI tools to enhance health tracking, including an AI-driven lab report summary tool and a Symptom Checker that provides personalized health suggestions.
