1. [R5] Google Health (Fitbit) 5/5 · US Life changing!: I initially made a review when the change first happened to Google Health and gave it one star and stated it was complete garbage. I was so wrong. I’ve used Fitbit since 2012 and don’t like change. However, in the last few weeks I’ve tried to embrace the Ai and give it a chance. That’s where this shines. Before it was only me trying to make sense of the data. Now, whatever I’m curi
2. [R23] Google Health (Fitbit) 5/5 · US All health tracking in one app with an AI coach to interpret data in premium: It has everything you need in a health tracking app such as: HR, HRV, RHR, ECG, O2, respirations, Sleep duration, sleep quality, sleep score, steps count, distance travelled, pace, HR zones during workouts, auto detect workouts, cardio load, calories burned, daily readiness, and recent activities. If you get premium it g
3. [R11] Google Health (Fitbit) 4/5 · US Not as accurate as Fitbit app: The new Google Health app is not as accurate as the previous Fitbit app regarding exercise. It will log walks but if I lap swim it will not accurately log my data. I lam swam for an hour and it said I did light exercise for 1 minute. I hope the bugs get worked out quickly. I miss the Fitbit app.
4. [R64] Google 1/5 · US Broken tab management: The AI/Gemini interface inside the Google App completely breaks basic tab management. When I click the "New Tab" button while inside an active AI thread, it fails to open a separate, additional tab. Instead, it completely ignores the command and overwrites my current thread. This destroys my active research progress and pollutes the AI's context window with unrelated questio
5. [R1] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US Dislike the new app: The new app after switching from Fitbit to Google health is terrible. It is not user friendly. Go back to the old version!
6. [R30] Google Health (Fitbit) 3/5 · US Google Health: This is not user friendly and a real let down from the Fitbit app.
7. [R37] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US I hate the switch!: I’m so confused that this app has a good rating…when I look at my Fitbit, it very commonly shows the symbol that indicates it’s not connected to my phone. Then I open the app to sync it and there’s days of data missing. Very unimpressed. The one Fitbit app worked perfectly. ☹️
8. [R63] Google 3/5 · US It’s Just Okay!: I prefer a different search engine that doesn’t change the screen if you leave it and come back to it. I also prefer one that doesn’t track your information or location. I also don’t like having suggestions based on something that I looked up because I wasn’t sure what it was.
9. [R7] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US Bugged sleep duration: Many times it doesn’t register when I sleep and the daily sleep duration is not cumulative so it only shows one sleep episode when you sleep two or more times
10. [R19] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US So slow and glitch filled: I feel completely ripped off because I replace my Fitbit the week before this update. I was supposed to get a free premium membership with that purchase but instead of being to the nice Fitbit app that added to my life it’s to this glitchy garbage app. The AI integration just makes everything so slow and overall just painful to use. I have actually stopped being motivate
11. [R40] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US Terrible updates: This app sucks and is so much worse compared to the previous Fitbit app. Terrible interface, loss functionality, and sync problems that can’t be solved
12. [R71] Google 1/5 · US Update bug: Now when I click on recent searches I’ve made, it no longer goes to those search results but just closes the window to where you most recently were. You have to hit the arrow all the way over to the side.
13. [R4] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US Pointless rebrand: The only good thing about this rebrand is it seems that if I cancel my subscription, I lose access to the annoying AI chat option/floating button. Can’t wait for that to go away. I loved the clean Fitbit interface and now it’s an overwrought mess like all Google apps these days. Am I just cranky because I lost my monthly sleep animal update? Maybe! But I’m considering an Oura ri
14. [R44] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US DO NOT BUY PREMIUM: The FitBit Google health app is awful. I recently purchased the FitBit Air band to track all the metrics and am using the app to build workouts for me. They say the AI Coach can help with the workout plans, but you ask the AI to create or edit something and it never executes your request correctly. I really wish they would improve upon this app because it is horribly laid out a
15. [R65] Google 5/5 · US Deon Davon Podcast: Outstanding google help protect all accounts they have great services in every platform
16. [R68] Google 5/5 · US Great Service: Attention to detail, professional and diagnosed the problem.
17. [R10] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US Horrible: Decades ive uses fitbit and introduced 1000s at churches and they are not happy with Google. Everyone loved fitbit.
18. [R42] Google Health (Fitbit) 1/5 · US Complete downgrade from Fitbit: I literally never review apps but I absolutely hate this app and I used the Fitbit app for years with no problem. Google Health does not log things properly - whether it’s sleep or missing entire workouts, the functionality is just not there. In addition, the UI is not intuitive and looks designed by someone with no consideration of human logic I am seriously consid
19. [R75] Google 1/5 · US Wow…: If anyone thought Google was bad before, being biased and all, just wait until you learn about Reckless Ben. Evidently google doesn’t care one bit about anyone’s privacy. They will give ALL your emails and information over to any corporation that asks for it. SHAME ON YOU GOOGLE. You can put those legos somewhere dark and lonely, Google.
20. [R117] Google 1/5 · US Too many changes on terms and services: This is why I hate google. Anytime a valid complaint comes their way their response or action is to add change or delete wording in order to avoid dealing with the complaints or violations. Apple doesn’t do this. They address the complaints directly and keep their terms and services agreements as is. They seldom change their terms and policies.
