Track Your Blood Pressure with Fitbit Air: A Rad New Feature!

Hey there, Nudgeville crew!

What’s up, fellow skaters and health enthusiasts? If you’re rocking a Fitbit Air, I’ve got some rad news for you! Google Health just dropped a new feature that lets you track your blood pressure right from your device. That’s right, no more guessing games about your health stats!

So here’s the deal: with the recent update to Google Health app version 5.12, you now have the ability to log your blood pressure readings manually. You can either enter them yourself or sync them from other compatible apps. This means that keeping track of your health is easier than ever, and you get to see how your readings change over time with cool graphs. Talk about bringing your health game to the next level!

Now, don’t get too hyped just yet. The rollout is happening in stages, so not everyone has access to this feature right away. Some users are still hanging out on version 5.11, waiting for their updates. But I’ve seen peeps on Reddit already confirming they’re getting this feature on both Android and iOS, which is super sweet! If you’re one of the lucky ones, just hit up the Today tab, tap on +Log, and select Blood Pressure to enter those numbers!

Just a heads up, though—you’ll still need a separate blood pressure monitor to actually take your readings. The Fitbit Air isn’t quite ready to measure blood pressure itself. But once you grab your readings, you can pop them into the Google Health app and watch those graphs do their thing.

And here’s another cool thing: you don’t need a Google Health Premium subscription to use this feature. You can log and view your readings for free! Premium subscribers get some extra perks, like chatting with the Google Health Coach to record measurements, but the core feature is open to everyone. So, no excuses, right?

So, if you’re looking to keep tabs on your health while still shredding it on your board, make sure to check out this new feature. It’s a rad way to stay on top of your game, both on and off the skatepark!
