Wearables offer various benefits. One is to track your fitness, and knowing how to sync your fitness band to Google Fit is an excellent way to keep all of your info in an easy-to-access app. Google's health and fitness platform can connect with some of the best smartwatches for fitness on the market, ensuring that regardless of what brand of wearable you prefer, you'll be able to have a common location for your fitness data. Let's get into connecting your fitness band or smartwatch to Google Fit.
How to sync your Wear OS watch to Google Fit
Most Wear OS smartwatches come with Google Fit pre-installed. However, if you don't have the app already on your watch, you'll want to go to the Google Play store and install it. This even applies to the new Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 lineup of wearables since Samsung has switched platforms to Wear OS. You will also want to be sure that you have Google Fit installed and set up on your phone so that your watch can sync with it.
- Press the side button of your watch and select Google Fit from the app list.
- Once the app opens, tap on the arrow to proceed with setup.
-
Select that account that you want to sync your data to.
- Google Fit will now request permission to access health sensor data from your watch, approve these so that your steps, heart rate, and other info can sync to the app.
- Confirm that your height and weight are correct. If not, adjust to the right info.
- Next, you'll see some choices for what activity level you'd like to set as your goal. Choose one you feel matches your ambition. You can always change later in the app.
Now your Wear OS smartwatch will be able to help you keep all of your fitness data synced with your Google account. Depending on what sensor options your watch has, you can sync heart rate and steps, or if your smartwatch tracks sleep and blood oxygen levels like the TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra, all of that info will be saved to Google Fit automatically.

How to sync your Mi Band to Google Fit
Xiaomi Mi Bands' lineup is some of the best fitness trackers around despite the low price tag. While you can access your data from the Mi app, you can also sync it to your Google Fit account to have a backup and a central location for all of your health data.

How to sync other platforms to Google Fit
If you are using any Samsung smartwatch before the Galaxy Watch 4 series, running Wear OS 3, which syncs directly to Google Fit, this is the section for you. While you can't directly connect health platforms like Samsung Health or Fitbit over to your Google Fit account, a third-party app called Health Sync can help you do just that.
- Download the Health Sync app from the Google Play store onto your phone, then open it.
- Once the app opens, you'll choose where you are syncing data from.
-
Next, you will choose where to sync that data to.
- Select the Google Fit account you want the info to sync to.
- After reviewing a few prompts, you will be able to pick what health data you want to sync to Google Fit.
- You may be required to allow permissions for each set of data you want to be sent to your Google Fit account.
With options like the Samsung Galaxy Active 2 and the Fitbit Versa 3 being some of the most popular fitness devices out there, it's unfortunate that you can't sync directly to Google Fit from those companion apps. Thankfully, you can use Health Sync to do this for you.
