Google wants you to be fit and healthy through this app

 Google introduced the Google Fit app in order to help users in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The company has now gone a step further and have introduced new features for Google Fit. The company claims that the new features will enable users to burn more calories.
The company adds that the new Google Fit is is centered around two simple and smart activity goals based on AHA and WHO’s activity recommendations shown to impact health: Move Minutes and Heart Points.
The new features are called 'Move Minutes' and 'Heart Points'. The objective of Move Minutes is to motivate users to add some more exercise to their routine. The app will now set goals for move minutes like 100 per day and then it will keep track of the progress. On the other hand, the Heart Points feature is aimed at encouraging users to get their heart pumping. For instance, if users increase their pace while walking then they will earn point for every minute. Moreover, a more intense workout will help users in earning double points.
In an official blog the company said, "When you’re walking, running or biking throughout the day, Google Fit will automatically detect these activities using your phone or watch sensors—like the accelerometer and GPS—to estimate the number of Heart Points you earn. If you’re into a different type of exercise, you can choose other activities like gardening, pilates, rowing or spinning, and Google Fit will calculate the Heart Points and Move Minutes achieved during your workout."
Along with this, the app will also offer tips which will help users to adjust their goals for better results.
Apart from the physical well being the Google is also focusing on the digital well being. The company has introduced this feature in Android 9.0 Pie. With digital well being the device will understand your habits, focus on what matters and will tell you to switch-off apps and spend time with family. For example, if you watch too much of YouTube or any other app, the Android dashboard will suggest you to take a break and talk to your family or friends.
