A year ago it became official Google Purchase of Fitbit, an operation that caused a lot of talk because of the possible consequences for users of the brand’s bracelets and watches in Europe. Since the announcement of the transaction, the two companies have worked to unite their services, which we are starting to see, now with Google Assistant.

New functionality of the Google Assistant

The new Google Assistant settings became official among Android users in October. In these settings we find a list with all the parameters or services to use the wizard, like music, shopping, time and more, where you can also choose the default app when performing a specific action (play music and use Spotify by default, for example).

In this list a new option is introduced which is well-being. For now, it is only possible to link the Fitbit app in this new option of the assistant, but it is a section with which you can link the assistant to the wellbeing and control apps. physical activity. It can be a daily physical activity (steps, calories, distance …), in addition to sleep or nutrition.

Be linked, you can ask the Google Assistant for information about of these applications. If you want to know how many hours you slept last night or how many steps you took yesterday, you can ask the assistant directly. For now, the function only gives information about sleep, although it will surely soon be extended to more activities related to the well-being of the user.

It’s unclear when this new option will be extended to Android users. Some already have access to it in the wizard, but at the moment it seems very limited. We will therefore have to wait a bit for it to reach everyone, in addition to being compatible with more services outside of Fitbit.
