Fitbit is now pre-installed on the Oppo Find X8 series as part of the default Google app suite, marking a shift away from Google Fit.
Traditionally, new Android phones come with a suite of Google apps. However, the Find X8 series replaces Google Fit with Fitbit in the default Google app folder.
This move reflects Google's increasing integration of Fitbit into its ecosystem, particularly with the Pixel Watch. Google's Black Friday deals often feature Fitbit integration.
Earlier this year, Google deprecated the Fit API, signaling Fitbit's future as the primary fitness tracking service for Android and Wear OS. Developers have until June 30, 2025, to transition to Health Connect. For those interested in other fitness trackers, explore UMIDIGI's Black Friday deals.
A Google spokesperson confirmed that Fitbit can be included in the default app package by OEMs. While this option has been available since earlier this year, Oppo is the first to implement it. This shift aligns with ColorOS 15's focus on smarter, smoother experiences.
This change suggests that more Android devices may include Fitbit as the default fitness app in the future.
