Google Fit dev APIs shutdown set for June 2025
  • Kinda sick of this meme. It's not dead, it was replaced by Health Connect.

    Google Fit was the 'hub' for fitness-related data for all apps. Developers could link their app to Fit so users had one place for all their health data.

    Android took over Fit's role and called it Health Connect, which is now out of beta. Health Connect is the API that developers now use to store their data in one centralised location on the user's device.

    If anything, this is just a logical next step. Should Google have just started with Health Connect? Obviously. but I think it works better as an Android service and not a Google one.

    Google Fit is sticking around (for now), as a user app for tracking fitness. It uses Health Connect API to store data, and now other developers need to use Health Connect instead of the Fit API.

  • WhatsApp UI has updated for me (Version 2.24.8.85)

    I'm not in the beta, and this is what my WhatsApp looks like now. This might be old news, but until today I had the green UI.

    (Sorry for the crappy censor job. I wish Android had a blur feature built-in)
