In 2019, when Google purchased Fitbit for $ 2.1 billion, it was not clear what to expect. It was obvious that the company would start moving existing Fitbit accounts to Google Accounts. The forecast was true in September 2022, when the technological giant announced that all users Fitbit will have to move their account to Google by the beginning of 2025.

Now we see the following important changes from Google on Fitbit. The fitness app has changed this week, with Google reorganizes the application to focus on personalization, accessibility and ease of use.
