EU Fitbit users to lose access to third party app and watch faces
Fitbit users across the European Union should brace for a significant shift in the way they customize their smartwatches. Google has announced the removal of all third-party apps and clock faces from the Fitbit app gallery starting in June 2024.
Why the sudden change? The update points to newly imposed «regulatory requirements» from the EU as the reason. According to the support page where the change was quietly announced, EU Fitbit users will have until June 2024 to add any third-party apps or clock faces before that feature is shut down.
