Google Fit: Activity Tracking

Activity and health tracking in one place

Google Fit: Activity Tracking is a Health & Fitness app for people who want a central record of everyday movement, exercise and selected health information. It can track activities such as walking, running and cycling, helping users review what they have done and how consistently they are moving.

What it measures

The app uses Heart Points to give more weight to moderate and vigorous activity than to simple movement totals. This provides a goal-oriented view of exercise based on the intensity of an activity. Compatible phones, watches and connected services can contribute information, reducing the need to record every session manually.

• Activity tracking for common forms of movement and exercise
• Daily and longer-term progress views built around activity goals
• Connections with selected fitness, nutrition, sleep and wearable services
• Optional heart-rate and breathing-rate checks using supported phone cameras

Who it suits

Google Fit is most useful for users who want a straightforward overview rather than a specialist training platform. It can work as a primary activity log for casual walkers and runners, or as a shared dashboard when data is spread across a watch and other health apps. The broad integration focus also makes it relevant to people who already use several services and want their records in one view.
