Google Fit is Google’s platform focused on tracking users’ physical activity and health.

Google Fit works best on devices specifically designed to track workouts (such as wearables). However, it also allows mobile devices that have certain sensors to be able to collect information about your physical activity.

Google Fit also allows third-party apps to connect, which is very useful for fitness apps and services. The data collected can be synced between all the devices where you have connected your Google Fit account.

However, according to multiple reports, the Google Fit app is not loading or showing connected apps or devices for some.

Connected apps or devices not appearing in the Google Fit app

The Google Fit app works like a hub where all devices and apps synced with Fit appear. So you can easily know which apps are receiving the information about your physical activity.

The app also allows you to remove synced services and devices with just a few taps. However, some Google Fit users are facing an issue where connected apps or devices do not appear in the list.

Google fit not showing connected apps.

My Google fit is not currently showing connected apps. Is anyone having issues with it?

Not sure if it’s because I installed my Samsung gear watch and installed Samsung health. I deleted both of those and I still don’t see any connected apps. What can I do to fix this. I’m thinking it was the Samsung health, all I did was installed nothing else.

Some users report that the synced apps and devices appear in the Google Fit app if you’re using a tablet.

After resetting phone, unable to get apps to connect to Google Fit

I use Fit to track walking, and also connect my Renpho scale app and Omron BP app which have worked fine in the past. The Renpho actually stopped working a while ago but as a workaround had it installed on my Android tablet which synced fine with Fit while on my phone it would not.

Now I am unable to get either app to show in Manage connected apps in Fit, it says “Couldn’t load apps or devices” .

Issue already escalated for investigation

A Google product expert confirmed that the issue has been escalated. So, for the moment, affected users can only wait for new updates on the matter.

Okay, thanks all for checking that. I’m officially out of ideas here but I’m going to escalate this thread to see if our community manager can look into this.

In the meantime, please keep using Menu > Help & feedback > Send feedback in the Fit app to report this directly to the developers. Note that you won’t typically get a reply to feedback submissions but the diagnostic data provided with your comments should aid in the investigation.
