Important note on Google Fit & Health Connect

Google Fit is being discontinued by Google throughout 2025. As a result, Google is encouraging Android users to transition to their new platform, Health Connect, for securely sharing data between apps.

If you previously utilized Google Fit, you'll now need to connect to the MoveSpring app via Health Connect. Please see this guide to learn how to connect to MoveSpring via Google's Health Connect.
