  1. Google launches Fitbit Edge AI health wearable

    TechNews reports that Google unveiled Fitbit Edge, a health-focused wearable positioned between the screenless Fitbit Air and the Pixel Watch 5. It combines health sensing, activity tracking, and AI-personalized health management, while Google Health integrates data across wearable form factors for long-term health-data analysis.

  2. Google invests in Flo Health to bring period tracking to wearables

    Google announced a multi-year partnership with and an investment in Flo Health, the menstrual-cycle tracking app that says it has more than 80 million monthly users; the investment amount was not disclosed. Starting in early 2027, Flo's cycle insights will connect to Google's health platform and combine with wearable measurements including sleep stages, resting heart rate, heart rate variability, skin temperature and respiratory rate, while the companies also plan women-specific products and research into perimenopause, pregnancy and postpartum recovery. Google says data sharing requires explicit permission given separately for each data type and purpose and can be withdrawn at any time, that Flo data will never be used for advertising or sold, and that Google Health Coach algorithms are designed not to log or store sensitive women's health events. The announcement comes after a consolidated class action over period-tracking data allegedly shared with Google and Meta between 2016 and 2019, in which Google and Flo settled for a combined $56 million while Meta did not settle and was found liable under California privacy law.

  3. Fitbit Air gains LLM-powered workout detection, over 100 activities

    Google announced an upgraded automatic workout-detection system for Fitbit Air, rolling out later this month to Pixel Watch 3, 4 and 5 as well as the newly announced Fitbit Edge. The update uses a new motion-detection software model and LLM reasoning that combines location and routine with movement data to classify activity; Google says this doubles classification accuracy and cuts missed workouts by more than half, while expanding recognizable activities from about 10 to over 100, including strength training and swimming. Google is also bringing Health Guardian health-monitoring features to Fitbit Air and Fitbit Edge, though these require a Google Health Premium subscription ($9.99 / £7.99 / AU$14.99 per month).

  4. Google launches $180 Fitbit Edge with AI health coaching

    Google announced the Fitbit Edge on October 12, a $179.99 fitness tracker positioned between the screenless Fitbit Air and the Pixel Watch 5; it is on pre-order now and ships October 27, with a Stephen Curry special edition at $219.99. Google says the 11.5mm tracker has its largest and brightest tracker display, 46% more viewing area than earlier Fitbits, and includes built-in GPS, an ECG and a skin temperature sensor; it calls the Edge its first fitness tracker with a replaceable battery, and claims up to seven days of battery life, though ZDNET notes that falls to about two days with the always-on display enabled. Buyers get three months of Google Health Premium, which unlocks an AI health coach before requiring a paid plan, and later this month Premium users will get Health Guardian for blood pressure trends and insulin resistance, which Google says is for general wellness rather than diagnosis.
