Connect your Google Fit data

Access comprehensive fitness and biometric data from Android users through Google Fit using Thryve’s unified API. Enable connected health, fitness, and research use cases with ease.

Streamlined Google Fit Integration via Thryve

Google Fit is Android’s official health data platform, aggregating user health metrics from native sensors and third-party apps (like Strava, MyFitnessPal, and Lifesum). With Thryve, you can integrate this data using our secure, developer-friendly API—no need to manage Google’s complex backend infrastructure or permission scopes directly.

Thryve handles OAuth, token refreshes, normalization, and harmonization across all Google Fit data types.

Privacy-First Architecture, Fully Compliant

Thryve’s integration with Google Fit is built with privacy by design. Our SDK and API infrastructure comply with GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO standards. We ensure consent-based data access using Google’s official OAuth2 flows and token-based security for all endpoints.

Developer-Ready Setup With Full Support

To connect Google Fit, Thryve provides a complete developer onboarding process, including:

Domain verification walkthrough
Redirect script templates
Google Cloud project setup guidance
Scope configuration for the required health metrics

⚠️ Important: Google Fit is being phased out for new integrations. Thryve cannot onboard new clients via Google Fit anymore. All new clients will need to use Health Connect as the Android data source. Existing Google Fit integrations will continue to function, but we strongly recommend migrating to Health Connect for long-term support. For more information visit our Health Connect page!

You’ll also receive support during the OAuth app verification process and API credential integration.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions:
Connection Essentials

How do I connect Google Fit to my app using Thryve?
- Google Fit is being phased out for new integrations, so new clients can no longer onboard with it. Instead, Health Connect is the recommended (and required) way to access Android users’ health and fitness data through Thryve. With Health Connect, you can still unlock the same types of insights you’d expect from Google Fit, like steps, exercise logs, calories, sleep, and biometrics, but with better support, security, and long-term reliability. For more information please visit our Health Connect page!
