Fitbit's Charge 6 and Ace LTE are discounted to around $100, matching the price of the new screenless Fitbit Air, which offers AI-powered coaching via subscription.
The Fitbit Air is a minimalist fitness tracker lacking a screen but offering comprehensive health sensors, though Google's AI Health Coach integration feels unnecessary and overly chatty.
Google has replaced the Fitbit app with Google Health, integrating an AI health coach, but many users are frustrated with the new interface, lack of customization, and forced AI interactions, leading to widespread calls for the old app's return.
The Google Fitbit Air is a screenless fitness tracker that is lightweight and unobtrusive, offering comprehensive wellness tracking without constant interruptions. Its design emphasizes ambient health monitoring, blending seamlessly into daily life.
Fitbit Air launched with a new Google Health API that allows developers to build AI agents and services on top of 31 health data points including sleep, heart rate, and SpO2, with webhooks and granular permissions.
Google announces that the Fitbit app will rebrand as the Google Health app on May 26 for Android and iOS, combining Fitbit tracking with Google's holistic wellness features and personalized coaching.
