TL;DR

The deadline to move your existing Fitbit data to a Google account is fast approaching.
You will lose your data if you don’t migrate it by May 19.
The process is simple and takes a few steps, so there’s no reason for you not to.

If you’re a long-time Fitbit user, you are required to switch to a Google account if you haven’t already done so. The deadline Google set for the transition is May 19, 2026, after which all your previous fitness activity stored in your Fitbit account will be lost forever.

The writing has been on the wall since Google completed its acquisition of Fitbit in 2021. Two years later, i.e., in 2023, Google started offering users the option to associate their existing Fitbit devices with a Google account instead and gave them the option to migrate any data.
