How apps share data on Google Fit
Before you connect an app to Google Fit, Google will ask if you want to allow this app to store new data to Google Fit and view data that you’ve already stored in Google Fit.
- Store new data: The app can save information to your Google Account on Google Fit. Only some apps store data and when they do, any other apps or devices that you’ve given permission to view data can use information that they’ve stored in your Google Fit account.
- View existing data: The app can use information saved to Google Fit by other connected apps.
After you give permission, a connected app can access information in your Google Fit account from any device where you have it installed. If you give an app permission to connect to Google Fit on one device, you can download that app on a second device and it will automatically connect to your Google Fit account.
Apps connected to Google Fit share and use your info in one of two ways:
- Collaborative sharing: Usually, apps let other connected apps view the fitness data that they've stored in Google Fit.
- Isolated storing: Sometimes, apps store data in Google Fit without letting other connected apps see it.
Types of data that Google Fit stores
Activity information
Activity information is data about your physical activity.
Activity information can include step count, calories burned and speed for activities like running, walking or cycling. When you let an app see activity information, that app can view all activity information stored in Google Fit, including information collected and stored by Google and other apps.
Location data
Location data is information about where you are and where you have been.
With location data, the app can indicate statistics, such as how far you've run or how fast you were cycling. If you let an app see your location data, that app can use the location data stored in Google Fit by other apps.
Nutrition and hydration
If you enter nutrition and hydration information through a connected app, Google Fit will track your food and drink.
Nutrition and hydration information can include calorie intake, macronutrients, micronutrients and water intake.
