As Apple announced Healthkit at WWDC 2014, rumors were going around that Google will hit back with its own fitness platform.
Google has announced Google Fit, a fitness platform that wants to act as an umbrella for all your fitness data, be it from your smartphone or fitness tracker or anything else. It will store all data available about your health, every metric possible from all the devices you own.
The vision is that Google Fit will be able to analyze that data and give you some helpful suggestions based on that.
And Google has already got some strong third-party support, with some notable names being: Adidas, Runkeeper and more. The full list is in the image above.
An SDK for Google Fit will be released by next week. More details aren’t available yet.
