Google Pixel Watch 2 users are expressing their desire to see Fitbit available on non-Google Wear OS watches. The integration of Fitbit into other smartwatches would provide users with the familiar health and fitness tracking features they have grown accustomed to. Currently, Fitbit is exclusive to the Pixel Watch 2, but users are hoping for a change.
The idea is to either make the Fitbit app downloadable on any Wear OS watch or open up Fitbit’s API for third-party watchmakers to integrate into their devices. This would allow users to switch between different smartwatches without losing access to their Fitbit data. The convenience of having all health data in one platform is a major selling point for users who have been loyal to Fitbit for years.
With the increasing fragmentation of health platforms on Android smartwatches, users are finding it challenging to sync their data across different services. By offering Fitbit on all Wear OS watches, Google could streamline the user experience and gather more valuable data. This move could potentially benefit both users and smartwatch makers by reducing the investment needed to develop new health tracking solutions.
While it remains to be seen if Google will make Fitbit available on all Wear OS watches, users are hopeful for a future where they can seamlessly switch between different smartwatches without losing access to their Fitbit data. The integration of Fitbit into non-Google Wear OS watches could revolutionize the health and fitness tracking experience for users.
