Fitbit for Android has now been downloaded over 100 million times from the Google Play Store.
The Fitbit app — which was released on March 16, 2012 — hit this milestone today and now reports 100,000,000+ downloads. On Google Play, there’s still a separate developer account, but it’s part of the main Google one on the iOS App Store.
The companion app for Fitbit OS-powered smartwatches and trackers is available on Android phones and tablets, though the latter is just stretched out and not particularly optimized. There’s a Steps Widget and even a live wallpaper, as well as Pixel Thermometer integration on the 8 Pro, 9 Pro, and 9 Pro XL.
Fitbit is also on Wear OS for the Pixel Watch, with the wearable experience quite nice and perfectly distilling necessary information.
It comes just over a year after the big Material You redesign started widely rolling out. Fitbit is about done updating all the stats pages with recent revamps of Sleep, Heart rate, Body responses & mood, Mindfulness, and Stress management score. That just leaves Health metrics, Weight, Food, and Water.
Google Fit is also at 100+ million downloads for those wondering
The biggest thing Fitbit users have called for is a dark theme. One was promised in October of 2023, but it’s not here yet. Fitbit might be waiting for all the stat pages to be overhauled first. At the same time, Google also teased “reducing spacing and optimizing the layout.”
Other big updates this year include a settings redesign and Health Connect integration, while the fitbit.com dashboard was fully replaced by the mobile app.
Looking ahead, we’re waiting for the LLM-powered Fitbit Labs that will let you interact with data in a conversational manner.
