Tracked changes affecting Fitbit
- 2026-09 · reportedFitbit → Google Health side-by-side window reported to closeA window in which the legacy Fitbit Web API and the Google Health API run side by side is reported to extend into late September 2026 — the practical dual-read period for migrating integrations.
- 2026-09 · reportedFitbit Web API turndown (reported window)The legacy Fitbit Web API's retirement in favour of the cloud Google Health API is reported to land around September 2026. No official day is confirmed on a page we could verify; some third-party guides name September 30, which is weaker evidence, not stronger. Tokens are reported not to transfer — every user re-consents via Google OAuth.
- 2026-05 · reportedFitbit accounts: Google Account consolidation gate (reported)Users on legacy Fitbit-only logins are reported to need consolidation into a Google Account by roughly mid-May 2026, and reportedly cannot use the successor API until they do — a gate on your migration, not a detail inside it.
