The Fitbit app will shut down on May 19, 2026 to make way for Google Health, a unified app that concentrates activity, sleep, nutrition, and health on a single screen. It includes an AI-powered assistant for training plans and trend detection. The subscription price remains at €9.99 per month or €99 per year. Daily goals are being eliminated and a personalized weekly cardio goal is being introduced. Additionally, a screenless tracker is being launched for $99, focused on measuring sleep.
Goodbye to daily goals: now AI decides your weekly cardio 📊
The most notable change is the disappearance of the classic daily goals for steps or active minutes. Google Health replaces them with a weekly cardio goal adapted to each user, calculated by the AI assistant. This model seeks flexibility and long-term consistency, although it eliminates the immediate gratification of seeing the activity ring closed every day. The app will also integrate data from multiple devices and medical history, becoming a health control center that learns from your patterns to suggest changes.
New screenless tracker: so you don't see how little you sleep 😴
Google is launching a screenless sleep tracker for $99, ideal for those who prefer not to know the time at 3 AM while tossing and turning in bed. The device focuses on measuring sleep stages, heart rate, and blood oxygen, but without visual distractions. Of course, you'll have to open the app to see the data, because the band won't even give you a good morning emoji. At least, you won't be able to blame the watch for your bad nights.
