The install on your Android Wear device is under 3MB. Along with the install is the version for Android Wear and when you sync up your Wear device, Google Fit will be installed on that device at that point. Google Fit is a small 29MB install for your Android phone running Android 4.4 or higher. But you will need a bit of patience for now. And it’s free and with Android Wear support, the future is bright for this app. Plus, there are already other apps like Withings and RunKeeper that plug into Google Fit to be that central hub of activity. There are plenty of both and if Google continues to build on it as they have done over the past few months, it will be a powerful application for you to keep track of your steps, miles walked, runs, swims and other activities along with your weight. I’ve been using Google Fit for the past several weeks as I explore its benefits and its limitations. The data’s there, but tucked away so you only focus on the here and now. It’s not cluttered with endless bar charts or huge amounts of data shoved in your face. Yet there is a simplicity about the app that makes it a joy to use. While designed to be a hub of all your physical activity, Google Fit has some growing up to do. When compared to some of the more advanced activity tracking apps available in the Google Play Store, Google Fit seems pretty basic.
