Food Tracking Alternative to Google Health

As a person who relied on Fitbit to track foods, the ability to add custom foods was invaluable, with the transition to Google Health they have seemingly removed this feature? What other apps do people use for tracking calories/macros that I could use instead that have this feature?

Fitbit Coach just sucks.

I’ve been using it over a month. Even listening to some recommendations on whether to workout on a certain day basis my readiness or not and I’ve conclusion that in its current state it just sucks.

It hallucinates all the time. The app and the device show something else, while the “coach” is in a different world.

I think I’m going to discontinue the premium plan.

Air order says delivery 29-1 Jun, product page says 28-29

Placed order a week ago and delivery estimate is longer than me placing a new order right now. That doesn't make sense right?

Fitbit coach keeps on hallucinating

I have a Fitbit inspire, it just does not have the capability to do form analysis. All of these stats are made up.

Custom Food Calorie Tracking

Did they remove the ability to track custom foods with the switch to Google Health? A product that I scanned had completely inaccurate data and I couldn't find a way to track the numbers I saw on the packaging.

Quick question about maximizing Premium trial length before setting up a new device (6 months vs 3 months)

Hi everyone,

I’m currently a new user to the Fitbit ecosystem (running the app on my phone without a tracker yet).

Right now, the Fitbit app is offering me a 6-month free trial for Premium as a new user promotion. However, I am planning to buy a new device soon (likely the new tracker), which I know comes bundled with a 3-month free trial.

My goal is simple: I just want to secure the longest free period possible (the 6 months instead of the 3).

If I activate the 6-month trial in the app just before I unbox and pair the new device, will the system let me keep that 6-month timeline? Or will pairing the new hardware automatically override my active status and force me down to the 3-month hardware standard?

Has anyone tried "cherry-picking" the longer app promo right before linking a new device? Did it work, or did the system mess up your trial expiration date?

Thanks for the help!

Yes, nutrition can be accessed in 1 click

You just need to edit the home page. I keep seeing people complaining about the difficulty level of getting to nutrition pages.

Edit the home page. I discovered this the other day.

New App-Exercise Tab

I got everything switched over finally! Thanks to the help in here. I did call customer support but they had no answers. So my husband removed me from his family and we made up random emails for my kids. I managed to keep my data. However the entire exercise tab is gone. I can't view past exercise, I cant view current exercise. You can see here its there but its clearly glitched. Does the new app no longer track exercise? If this isn't an option ill just go ahead and buy a new device now with another company. Do you guys have access to your old exercise info? Do you guys have your exercise tab still after switching? Does it take a few days to load or something? Any advice is greatly appreciated! I can not understand what theyre doing. Plz lmk if this is a tech issue with the app and ill try customer service again tomorrow. Thank you! Below is a picture of my app perfectly fine and working except exercise.

Looks like Fitbit community is being removed completely

I kinda figured that'd happen. Could be a bug but it looks like they're not transferring previous community discussions over to Google health community

Fitbit AI Coach

Has the Fitbit ai coach previous stopped for now? It disappeared from my app.

It was really cool while it was working for about 3 days.

I found it very motivating to have personalised feedback and suggestions!

New Google Health Widget

I could not wait till the official release, I downloaded the application from the APK mirror portal and installed it on my Pixel8Pro

I'm loving this new widget, it works correctly, if you click on the littler heart icon, it goes to home page. But if you click on any on the other indicators it opens up your trends. There is a refresh button and a direct ask coach button as well. (I'm on my free premium plan, coming from my Pixel watch 3 purchase).

What do you think?

The running stats in Google Health are a downgrade

I just went on a run and always check my pace on the individual kilometers. Apparently that is no longer possible. It appears that Google Health has very limited insights compared to Fitbit.

Did anyone else notice this?
