Google is hitting pause on the Fitbit app’s social features

• Social features on the Fitbit app are being paused in preparation for the Google Health app transition.
• You will not be able to send messages, view leaderboards, or add or remove friends.
• Access to a new social experience will open up when you’re in the Google Health app.

While it may not be the most important feature in the Fitbit app, the social functionality is one of the core parts of the experience. Being able to share your stats and accomplishments with friends is part of the fun. And having access to leaderboards can be just the motivation you need to push on. If you’re a frequent user of the app’s social features, you should know that they are being put on pause.
