eFit has moved to Google Health for activity syncing. The direct Google Fit app and Fitbit app connections have been retired. This guide helps you switch over.
What changed
- You no longer connect the Google Fit app or the Fitbit app to eFit directly.
- You now connect Google Health one time, and it covers every device you use.
- Your Fitbit, Garmin, and Samsung devices still work. They send their data through Google Health, and eFit reads it from there.
If you used Google Fit before
- Make sure your activity is reaching Google Health. On Android this happens through Android Health Connect (see Connect on Android With Health Connect).
- Open eFit, go to Fitness Tracker, and if you were connected before, select Disconnect Google Health first.
- Tap Connect with Google Health and sign in with the Google account that holds your activity.
If you used a Fitbit before
- Install or update the Google Health app. The Fitbit app became Google Health in May 2026, and your Fitbit pairs and syncs inside it directly, on Android and iPhone alike.
- In eFit, open Fitness Tracker and select Disconnect Google Health if you had the old Fitbit connection.
- Tap Connect with Google Health and approve the permissions.
If signing in with Google drops you on a Fitbit page asking for a password, see Sign In With Google Sends You to a Fitbit Page. It happens whether or not you ever owned a Fitbit.
Will I lose my old activity?
No. Reconnecting does not remove the activity history already recorded in eFit. The switch only changes how new activity reaches eFit.
If eFit says your account needs a Google Health profile
Installing the Google Health app is what creates that profile, and it has to happen before eFit can connect. Years of steps already on your phone do not create it on their own. See eFit Says Your Google Account Needs a Google Health Profile.
