Google is officially putting health-focused AI to work on users’ wrists. Beginning October 28, the company will open a public preview of its Gemini-powered Fitbit Personal Health Coach for Fitbit Premium users in the US. The feature was first announced in August, when Google launched the Pixel Watch 4. It uses Gemini’s conversational smarts to blend fitness training, sleep analysis, and general health advice into a single chat-based experience.

Rather than simply a new feature, the rollout represents a test drive of Google’s broader vision of personalized wellness, coinciding with a complete Fitbit app overhaul. The app’s redesigned interface divides everything into four tabs: Today, Fitness, Sleep, and Health, and shifts the focus from daily streaks to long-term progress. Users can zoom out to view weekly trends, customize “Focus Metrics,” and move seamlessly between activity, recovery, and overall health data.
