Is Fitbit still supported by Google?

Yes. Google acquired Fitbit in 2021 and continues to develop Fitbit products. The Fitbit brand will continue alongside Google Pixel Watch. Google is integrating Fitbit features into Wear OS and the Google Health ecosystem. The Fitbit app is being enhanced with Google features (Maps, Wallet, Assistant). Existing Fitbit users will continue to receive support and updates.

Which Fitbit should I buy for simple step tracking?

The Fitbit Inspire 3 ($80-100) is the best Fitbit for simple step and sleep tracking. It provides steps, heart rate, sleep, and SpO2 in a slim, comfortable design with 10-day battery. The Charge 6 ($160) adds GPS and Google features for more active users. For step counting and sleep tracking only, the Inspire 3 is the best value. Do not overspend on features you will not use.
