Google Health 5.02 is out now: naps and hourly activity return
Google Health has been updated to version 5.02 on Android and iOS, available through Google Play and the App Store. Early reports from users suggest the redesigned app is restoring nap tracking and hourly activity tracking, two features Fitbit users lost, or had a much harder time finding, after the move to Google Health in May 2026.
The update looks like part of Google’s attempt to settle down the redesign after complaints about a cluttered interface, missing features, and bugs.
Those same early reports point to nap tracking and hourly activity tracking finally showing back up after disappearing, or getting buried, during the May 2026 migration from Fitbit to Google Health.
A recent Android Authority survey captured that mixed response pretty well. More than half of respondents said they liked the new look, but many of those same users also felt Google Health had become harder to use. Google has already pushed earlier fixes for exercise tracking, sleep score visibility, and food logging, and the company says more updates are on the way through summer 2026.
Google wants Health to be one place for wearable data, wellness tools, U.S. medical records, and its premium Health Coach service. The company also says your health data won’t be used for Google Ads.
If you relied on Fitbit’s smaller day-to-day stats, this update is probably worth grabbing. More than anything, version 5.02 will be judged on whether it makes the app feel useful again.
You can download Google Health 5.02 now from Google Play and the App Store.
