Google Fit Update Includes a Home Screen Widget, Breathing Coach for Stresses of Holidays

An update for Google Fit is rolling out this week, full of new features for users on Android and Wear OS devices.

Google lists two main things as new: Home screen widgets and a breathing coach. For the widgets, they are just as you’d picture, a widget that shows activity tracking, heart points, steps taken, calories burned, and more. If you’re big into Fit, and still use widgets, it’s a must have.

Google also realizes that this time of year may be stressful, with the gift shopping and errand running. To combat this, a breathing coach is now available in Fit, able to guide you through a breathing exercise to help you unwind and relax.

All Fit users on Wear OS and Android should see this update this week.
