Google Health manual blood pressure logging rolls out to Fitbit Air devices
Google Health's version 5.12 update, which added manual blood pressure logging, is beginning to reach Fitbit Air owners on both Android and iOS after a delayed start. Users can enter readings manually or sync them from compatible apps via Health Connect or Apple Health, with results displayed as graphs under the Heart section. The Fitbit Air itself still cannot measure blood pressure, so a separate monitor is required.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The staggered rollout, with some users still stuck on older app versions, suggests Google is testing the feature incrementally rather than pushing it to all devices at once. Making manual logging free rather than tied to a Health Premium subscription could broaden adoption of the Health app as a central hub for personal health data ahead of any future built-in sensor capability.
- Manual blood pressure logging from Google Health's 5.12 update is now appearing for Fitbit Air users.
- The feature works on both Android and iOS, syncing with Health Connect or Apple Health.
- Fitbit Air cannot measure blood pressure on its own; a separate monitor is still needed.
