Google has closed Google Fit on the Web, focusing on Android and Wear OS

Last August, Google Fit was completely redesigned with new settings, the Material theme on Android and a leading role in Wear OS. With this new focus on mobile, Google kills the desktop web client service next month.

The depreciation was announced this week by a big orange banner at the top of fit.google.com which provides a long explanation. Google closes the desktop client to "focus its efforts on adding new features that enhance the Google Fit experience for smartphones and smartwatches." The website will continue to run until Wednesday, March 19th.

Google Fit is committed to helping you adopt a healthier and more active lifestyle and to facilitate healthy behavioral changes. Over the past year, we have redesigned Google Fit with new business goals based on the physical activity recommendations of the American Heart Association and the World Health Organization. , added guided breathing widgets and home screen and organized a 30 day New Year's Challenge. While we continue to focus our efforts on adding new features that enhance the Google Fit experience in the field of mobile and smart watch, we will disable this website on March 19, 2019. To follow your activities and track the progress of your health goals, install the Adapt the application on your Android phone or carry smartwatch OS.

The redesign of last year's service did not extend to the Web. Today, it still retains the original material icon and red heart icon, while missing moving minutes and heart dots. The number of steps, distance, and activities still appear online after the redesign, but the lack of new Fit settings was probably a telling indicator that the number of days on the website was limited.

In addition to displaying statistics and recent activities on a larger screen, Google Fit on the Web has excelled at showing a long-term monthly view of your business. Users can also save weight and other unsaved activities.

For users of the phone and the Wear OS app, Google's commitment to "add new features" is promising. The Android app is a good example of the Material theme, while it is now accessible to everyone. Recent updates have added several home screen widgets and breathing exercises to portable devices. Google also hosted a New Year's Challenge to encourage users to be more active, with 325,000 attendees.
