Google Fit: Activity Tracker

It used to connect with my Garmin tracked activity which I thought was nifty. I would appear to be that Google Fit tracks via my mobile only, which is so sad. I track my running via my Garmin fēnix 6 plus HR chest strap only. No mobile phone on my runs.

This app has been amazing for years. For some reason, it’s no longer calculating my active time properly when I enter in my time walked. I also notice that sometimes it’s subtracting from the time on the very right. Please fix this!!

The discrepancies in data between the Apple Health app and Google fit are getting worse. You actively see step data counting downward almost EVERY TIME YOU OPEN THE APP. Having to manually input the deleted step data is beyond aggravating. I assume we’ll have to get a new Google AI app for this.

Never accurate, data always delayed, and after work out 5hours later will reduce records, ex. On 09/28 walking 3 hours, around 13400 steps with heart rate 46, after 5 hours late became 16 only!

Tried the app, first day it was tracking my steps somewhat accurate… second day, completely inaccurate. I walked 2.5 miles, yet the app calculated that I walked 0.8 miles… Google please do better because I’ve used off brand apps that calculated everything from push ups to walking accurately. Currently looking for that app as I review this. Deletion on the way!

Why doesn’t this app connect to Apple Watch? Without that it doesn’t get all of a persons activity

No reason that a company like google can’t make their app work correctly. Can’t import and can’t track on its own. Virtually useless if you have to keep adding your activity in yourself from Health. Resetting and connecting constantly. I raised my blood pressure using this horrible app. Obviously doesn’t get tested or updated. Absolute waste of my energy in Toto. Work on your apps, Google. There’s no reason for it

I truly appreciate this app and the hard work that goes into maintaining it. Keeping track of my daily steps is extremely important to me and when the Google Fit app rolls back or does not count my steps accurately it can be a bit frustrating. :(

I’ve had this app for about a month now. It worked for a couple weeks right in sync with my regular iPhone health app, but it no longer reads accurately. My iPhone health app reads the right mileage and steps and the google fit app reads 1/2 a mile less and 2-3000 steps less every time. Today I even watched it go up to the right number of steps then it went backwards 3000 steps! It’s becoming very frustrating and I’m ready to delete it from my phone!

I’m not sure if it’s because I switched to IPhone or if the feature was removed, but when I had an android, Google Fit would count my steps and also had a feature you could turn on for “fast pace” and it would make a ticking sound to help keep you going at the same pace. Ever since I switched it doesn’t do either anymore. I haven’t found a step/mile counter that I’ve liked since and really miss those features.
