Google’s latest health upgrade is sleeping on Fitbit support
Even a Google Health Premium subscription won't unlock this missing health insight.
Google has introduced new health features, but Fitbit Edge and Air users are missing out on one key functionality. The new sleep breathing quality feature, part of Google's Health Guardian insights, is not supported on Fitbit Edge and Air trackers despite owners having access to blood pressure and insulin resistance trends with a Premium subscription.
This discrepancy was confirmed by Google's own online store comparison. While Google claims that more devices will receive this feature, they have not yet confirmed if Fitbit Edge and Air will be included. The Pixel Watch owners, on the other hand, benefit from a broader range of health tracking capabilities, including blood pressure, insulin resistance trends, and sleep breathing quality, all accessible with or without a Premium subscription.
