Where Does Google Fit Store Activity History?

Google Fit history lives in your Google account with the phone holding a private cache under its package sandbox.

Last updated

Google Fit is account-backed. Workouts, heart points, and weights sync to Google servers. The local sandbox holds cached views and pending syncs. Deleting the app drops the cache while the archive stays put.

Takeout is the honest export path. It covers more than the in-app history screen shows. On current Android versions Fit shares the stage with Health Connect, which owns sensor permissions underneath.

Where Google Fit stores this, by platform

Android
/data/data/com.google.android.apps.fitness

Private sandbox for cache and pending syncs. History itself is account-side. Full archive comes from Google Takeout, not from these files.

Frequently asked questions

How do I export all Google Fit data?

Use Google Takeout and select Fit data. That yields the full archive including sessions and weights. The sandbox copy is a cache and deletes with the app.

How do I move Google Fit history to a new phone?

Sign in on the new phone. History syncs from the account. Health Connect now mediates sensor writes on recent Android, so check its permissions if tracking stalls.
