It doesn’t fix the Pixel Watch’s issues, but it’s a step in the right direction
based on one of six cartoon animals. The feature tracks 10 sleep-related metrics so users can get a big-picture view of how their routines affect their sleep and find areas where they can improve. Given that the Pixel Watch already tracked the majority of these sleep metrics, it was odd that this was originally gatekept to Fitbit devices.
Another perk: normally, you need to log 14 nights of sleep within a month to get a Sleep Profile on the first day of the following month. But, if you’ve logged 14 nights of sleep in October, Google says you should see your Pixel Watch’s Sleep Profile on November 22nd instead of having to wait until December 1st.
The Fitbit Sense 2 and Versa 4 will also get Google Wallet starting today. Google Maps is still “coming soon.”Meanwhile, Fitbit promised that Google Wallet and Google Maps were coming to the Sense 2 and Versa 4. What it didn’t say was that previously available smartwatch features would disappear from both devices, including Google Assistant and third-party apps. That resulted in two watches that somehow offered less than their predecessors.
With Google Wallet, the Sense 2 and Versa 4 will give users more options when it comes to contactless payments — a common feature in modern smartwatches. Fitbit Pay has been around for a while, but Google Wallet offers better integration with Android phones and is accepted more widely. That at least takes some of the sting out of the other missing smart features.
