It’s been over a week since the Fitbit app transitioned into the new Google Health app, bringing with it a complete design revamp and the possibility of more integrations and a more centralized health experience that ties together Fitbit, Google Fit, and Health Connect.
But, having used the app for a week, my personal opinion of it was very mitigated. Yes, the new design looks more alive and is more interesting, but the user experience has taken a huge step back in the name of AI and Google’s fascination with throwing a wall of text at what could be a simple graph with a small explanation. Not to mention that all the stats and graphs are now unsortable, inconsistently placed inside the app, and downright obfuscated in a few cases. It’s so bad that I said I hate the Google Health app and asked you how you felt about it. Did you love it?
