I don’t know anymore

Right now Health Connect is only something to store Health data into, it doesn’t have any write capabilities. Maybe steps are basic enough for it to capture and store some data, and is something people will actually want to use…? But who knows what it means for Google Fit

Its just part of Google’s plan to continuously move logic between their apps. They’ll slowly move Google Fit logic into Health Connect, then a few laters back out into G Fit.

I don’t know if it’s good or bad. Health Connect just needs an easier entry point.
