Google Confirms New Fitbit Hardware for 2026

A revamped Fitbit app with a Gemini-powered coach is slated to fully launch alongside the devices.

Overview

  • The confirmation came during a press preview of the redesigned Fitbit app and Personal Health Coach, with Fitbit’s head of product hinting at 2026 devices.
  • Google has not disclosed specific models, specifications, pricing, or exact launch timing beyond the 2026 window.
  • The Personal Health Coach uses Google’s Gemini AI to deliver tailored plans and insights, with the full experience planned for 2026.
  • A public preview of the overhauled app and AI coach is rolling out to U.S.-based Fitbit Premium users on Android, with iOS access promised later this year.
  • Past statements position Pixel Watch as Google’s smartwatch, and reporters expect Fitbit’s 2026 lineup to skew toward long‑battery fitness trackers rather than new Fitbit smartwatches.
