Google’s Gemini-powered version of Fitbit continues to improve monthly. I called the experience a pleasant work in progress for our review, as I continue to use it daily for sleep, steps, and weekend runs. But for those who want more customization, fine-tuning, and additional features? The company announced a new update yesterday, which added seven new improvements to the app. 

  • Fitness Coach Recommendations: We’ve listened to your feedback and have updated our fitness coaching to offer a more flexible experience. You’ll now receive personalized weekly targets and tailored workout recommendations designed specifically to help you reach your health goals. 
    • Note: For Public Preview users with previous plans, you can still download or delete your existing scheduled plans here. Our team is actively iterating on this feature to bring you even more improvements—stay tuned! 
  • Step-by-step Workout Execution: Complete workouts from your Coach with new step-by-step workout guidance.
  • Adapt your Fitness Plans (Coming soon): You will soon be able to adapt your workout plans through conversational interactions with your coach or by using the Adapt missions or Adapt workout buttons in the Fitness tab. This feature is coming in a later update—stay tuned!
  • Coach Messages in the Today tab: Stay motivated with personalized messages throughout your day, including Morning Moments, Post-Workout Summaries, and End-of-Day or End-of-Week updates in the Today tab.
  • Conversational Check-Ins: Interact with your coach more naturally using the revamped text check-in feature.
  • Revamped Sleep Score: Get a better understanding of your rest with a new Sleep Score and a more transparent view of how your score is calculated. 
  • Edit Your Sleep (Android only): You can now edit your Sleep logs. To do so, tap on sleep summary from last night, tap on the 3 dots, and tap Edit Sleep. Please provide feedback on any issues you experience. This feature will be available on iOS soon.

Since its inception last year, Google and Fitbit have been on it regarding customer feedback for improvements. Interested users should be on the lookout for a Fitbit update to v4.68 to get access to everything mentioned above.
