Google Health has launched version 5.11, expanding automatic activity detection from 10 to over 100 activities on Fitbit Air and Pixel Watch 3‑5, and the Fitbit Edge. The update uses workout history, manual edits, and location data to log sustained heart‑rate workouts automatically, sending a summary notification within about 30 minutes. Users can confirm or edit entries, allowing the system to learn patterns and improve future predictions. Google claims the upgrade delivers nearly twice the detection accuracy and cuts missed workouts by more than half.
