Summary
In an email to Fitbit users, Google has announced that the deadline for users of the fitness service to migrate to a Google account has been pushed back from 2025 to 2nd February 2026.
Those who don’t migrate their data will have their historical data deleted after the new deadline.
The move follows Google’s acquisition of Fitbit in early 2021, with the company claiming the move would simplify the login process for users and allow them to manage their data via the Google Privacy Centre.
However, the acquisition raised concerns among regulators that it could lead to the company having too much control over users’ health data.
Following the acquisition, the company also announced that new Fitbit hardware and features would only be accessible via a Google account.
