Get to a healthier and more active life with Google Fit! It’s hard to know how much or what kind of activity you need to stay healthy. That’s why Google Fit collaborated with the World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Heart Association (AHA) to bring you Heart Points, an activity goal that can help improve your health. Activities that get your heart pumping harder have tremendous health benefits for your heart and mind. You’ll earn one Heart Point for each minute of moderate activity like picking up the pace when walking your dog, and double points for more intense activities like running. It takes just 30-minutes of brisk walking five days a week to reach the AHA and WHO’s recommended amount of physical activity shown to reduce the risk of heart disease, improve sleep, and increase overall mental wellbeing. Google Fit will also help you: SEE YOUR WORKOUTS Get insights and see stats such as heart rate, speed, pace, route, and more for your runs, walks, and bike rides. MONITOR YOUR GOALS See your daily progress on your Heart Points and steps. Meeting your goals all the time? Easily adjust your goals to keep challenging yourself to achieve a healthy heart and mind. MAKE EVERY MOVE COUNT All physical activity can help you lead a healthier life, and with Google Fit you can track it all in one place. Working with your favorite fitness apps and devices, Google Fit builds a journal of your activity.

Terrible update
The recent update of the sleep stages, etc. is terrible. No contrast in color format and difficult to read. Benchmarking almost non existent.
Doesn't give points for move minutes
Shows my cycling 33 miles in a little over 2 hours. Only gives credit for steps. Manual entry of cycling then gives double the miles. Removed from phone
Definitely Needs Improvement
I track my steps daily with Google Fit and with Apple Health. When I am finished with walking I check my progress and at times both apps will match, but more and more Google Fit will show a certain number of steps but then will rollback and I will lose sometimes a few thousand steps. This is very frustrating to me and I do not know why this happens. I work hard in trying to get my A1C levels down but Google Fit isn’t working as efficiently as it should be for me.
Upset!
App not working correctly for my sleep tracking, please fix!
Complete and utter garbage
Occasionally, Google’s own apps are better on iOS than on Android, but this is not one such case. Today, according to this app, I acquired 14 heart points on a 1.5-mile, 22-minute walk…which I somehow accomplished in 4 steps. This was synced from my Pixel Watch, which says I got 13 heart points for that 2104-step walk. This and numerous other bugs have been plaguing Google Fit FOR OVER A DECADE, and Google doesn’t seem to care to fix them. (It would take many, many paragraphs to detail all of the issues, and the best that Google’s customer disservice can manage is to recommend inane “troubleshooting” steps like clearing app cache, as though getting a new phone entirely doesn’t rule out client-side issues.) Perhaps the Google Fit cloud service is to blame, but regardless, I’m happy to penalize the app with an appropriate rating. This is just disgraceful.
Great but missing one thing
I really enjoy Google Fit's activity summary. It is just enough data and nicely presented. I also like the weekly summary story. My one qualm is that I have a Fitbit, which Google owns, to track my sleep and wake me up. I don't understand why it cannot sync the sleep data to Google Fit on iPhone. It can do that on Android but not iOS. That is the one missing feature.
not syncing across devices
Good app overall. But obviously not syncing heart points across devices. I have both an iPhone and a Samsung. The heart points I acquired on Samsung phone is not showing up or counting towards heart points in my iPhone
