If your phone still shows the Fitbit app and you never linked your account to Google, 15 July 2026 is your data deletion date. Wearable Converter exports your full Fitbit history and moves it into Garmin Connect, where there's no subscription and you actually own your data.
If you never migrated your Fitbit account to a Google sign-in, this is what disappears from Google's servers on 15 July 2026.
Every step you have ever logged. For many users that's years of daily totals, sometimes a million-plus steps a year.
Years of weigh-ins, body fat percentage, BMI history. The trend lines you used to track long-term changes, gone.
Sleep stages, resting heart rate, heart rate variability. Garmin doesn't accept imports of these so they don't transfer, but they still disappear from Google's servers on 15 July.
Every logged run, ride, swim, walk. Distance, duration, calories per session. Same as above, Garmin can't import them, but they still vanish from Google.
Every achievement badge, every lifetime milestone. There's no equivalent in Garmin, but Google Takeout exports them so at least you keep a record.
Google has not promised any extension and there is no recovery process. After 15 July, the data is gone from their servers. The only copy is what you exported.
Google Takeout will export everything for you, but the file format is wrong for Garmin, and Garmin's import process is undocumented.
Google Takeout exports your history as JSON files (still labelled "Fitbit" inside, even after the rebrand). Garmin Connect only accepts a very specific CSV format that's not documented anywhere obvious.
Your history is split across hundreds of individual JSON files, one per data type per month. Merging them by hand takes hours.
The export stores data internally in imperial regardless of your display settings. Without the right conversions, your data lands in Garmin completely wrong.
No technical knowledge needed. If you can download a file and click a button, you can do this.
Use this direct link to open Google Takeout with Fitbit data already selected. Request a download and Google will email you a ZIP file of your full history. Allow several hours, large archives take time to prepare.
Drop your ZIP into Wearable Converter. It runs entirely in your browser, your data never leaves your device. Google doesn't see this happen, and neither do we.
Get a clean ZIP of Garmin-ready CSV files, split by year for reliable importing.
Upload each CSV to Garmin Connect. Your full history appears, ready to go. No subscription required.
Garmin Connect has specific limits on what historical data it accepts. We convert everything it allows.
Garmin Connect is free for the life of your device. Body Battery, Training Readiness, Sleep Score, all included. Nothing locked behind a Premium tier.
No subscription. No monthly fee. Pay once, use it as many times as you need.
