Google Fit is still going strong, even though Fitbit has become a big part of Googleโ€™s fitness efforts, especially since the Pixel Watch was announced. James Park, the founder and CEO of Fitbit, said that both Fit and Fitbit will be around for a while and that Google has no plans to get rid of either one right now.

Weโ€™ve heard that the Google Fit app might get a new logo to prove that. You can actually โ€œcheck it outโ€ here.

Fit started in October 2014 with a logo that looked like a heart-shaped notebook. A redesign in 2018 kept the heart shape but made it fit with a design scheme that focused on combining simple shapes and strokes with Googleโ€™s signature four colors.

According to 9to5Google, this latest small change doesnโ€™t keep the logo the same, but it does bring out some parts. Green and blue are switching places, and the heart is no longer a closed shape. The yellow and blue parts now look like checkmarks, which could mean that exercise goals have been met. Andโ€ฆ I think thatโ€™s all.

Even though the icon isnโ€™t live yet, you can see a version of it in the appโ€™s complications in Wear OS. You see above a recreation 9to5 made based on what was told.

If what they say is true, I like the new look. Even though it looks pretty much the same, the new logo has a fresher feel. Also, a new icon usually means that Google cares about the product it represents. So, even though it was already clear that Google Fit wasnโ€™t going anywhere, this is another sign that it wonโ€™t.
