Google launches AI health coach on Fitbit with Gemini for personalized fitness & wellness

Google has introduced an AI-powered personal health coach for Fitbit, using Google Gemini technology to provide users with fitness, sleep, and wellness guidance in one tool and will be available in preview this October for Fitbit Premium subscribers through the redesigned Fitbit app, supporting the latest Fitbit trackers, Fitbit smartwatches, and Pixel Watches.

The coach personalizes plans by analyzing real-time health metrics, user preferences, and data from devices like smart scales or glucose monitors. Through a chat interface, users can set goals, indicate available equipment, and receive tailored workout plans that adjust dynamically based on readiness scores, sleep quality, injuries, or schedule changes.

Advanced algorithms analyze sleep patterns and stages, helping create personalized schedules and determining optimal rest needs. Users can ask science-based questions about training, recovery, or weight management, while the updated Fitbit app adds improved data visualization, better syncing, and dark mode to support adaptive, long-term health goals.
