We learned from Google’s keynote and the existence of the Pixel Watch that the company is still investing in its wearable devices and attempting to bring more wellness features into the frame. Google also quietly introduced Health Connect, a new platform for health app developers to implement to securely share and access health and fitness data between different Android devices. It’s particularly great news for Samsung watch wearers, who have had to jump through hoops with third-party apps to get health data synced between Samsung Health and Google Fit.
