Google has announced to Android developers that the Google Fit API has become outdated, no longer accepting new user registrations. The API will remain operational until June 30, 2025, after which developers are advised to transition to Health Connect before the specified time.
Introduced in 2014, Google Fit has served as a health platform. However, the unveiling of Health Connect in collaboration with other players in 2022 suggests the inevitable merger with Google Fit in the near future.
It is important to note that Google’s announcement pertains to the Google Fit API for developers only and does not affect the functionality of the Google Fit app on Android, Wear OS, and iOS, which continues to operate as usual.
