  • Google announced last year that Fitbit would start using Google accounts for sign-ins when Google accounts on Fitbit launch in 2023.
  • Fitbit account support is scheduled to end by 2025, requiring a Google account going forward.
  • Account migration has begun as the Pixel Watch 2 and Fitbit Charge 6 will be the first devices to require a Google account to log into Fitbit.

If you haven’t migrated your Fitbit account to a Google account yet, you may want to start doing it soon. Google’s latest Fitbit integrated products — Pixel Watch 2 and Fitbit Charge 6 — won’t work with a Fitbit account.

Yesterday, Google unveiled a slew of products during its Pixel hardware event, including the Pixel Watch 2. A few days before that, the company announced the long-awaited Fitbit Charge 6. Google has confirmed that both devices will require a Google login to sign into Fitbit, being the first of Google’s products to do so.
