Google Sets 2026 Deadline for Fitbit Account Migration

Google has officially set a deadline of February 2, 2026, for Fitbit users to transition their accounts to Google Accounts, warning that failure to do so will result in the loss of all stored data. This change, which began in 2023, is aimed at consolidating Fitbit's independent account system into Google's unified platform, enhancing user experience and security. Users who do not migrate will see their historical health and fitness data deleted, and the option to export or delete data is available until the deadline. The initial deadline was set for 2025 but has now been extended to provide users with more time to adapt. The merger is part of Google's strategy following its acquisition of Fitbit, which took place in January 2021. Users are encouraged to update their Fitbit app to access migration options easily.
