Fitbit Labs and Insight Explorer
Google has begun integrating its Gemini AI into the Fitbit smartphone app, which serves as a companion for Fitbit-branded wearables and Google Pixel Watches. The first Gemini-powered feature for Fitbit is Insight Explorer, which offers personalised responses to users’ health-related queries. However, this feature is available as an opt-in experiment within a new “Fitbit Labs” section in the app and is currently limited to select users.

The Insight Explorer feature on the Fitbit app is currently available only to Fitbit Premium subscribers in the US and supports English language exclusively. Eligible users can activate the feature by following these steps:
-
Tap on the “See all” option within the Fitbit Labs section. -

There may be a waitlist if the number of users exceeds the feature’s limit. Google mentioned that users can join the waitlist to receive notifications when more spots become available.
