Google is rolling out Health Coach, its AI‑powered wellness assistant, starting May 19, 2026. The service moves out of preview and becomes part of the Google Health Premium plan, priced at $9.99/month or $99/year. It’s also bundled free with Google AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions. The first rollout covers Fitbit and Pixel Watch users, with support for more devices coming later.
Health Coach works as a personal trainer, sleep guide, and health advisor. It starts with an onboarding chat to learn your goals, lifestyle, injuries, and available equipment. From there, it adapts as you update your details, giving flexible guidance that fits daily routines.
The app is organized into tabs. The Today tab pushes proactive insights across fitness, sleep, nutrition, cycle tracking, and medical records. The Fitness tab builds weekly plans, lets you create workouts in natural language, and offers step‑by‑step guidance with visuals. The Sleep tab tracks consistency and progress toward better rest. The Health tab pulls medical records into clear summaries.
Google added requested features like redesigned cycle tracking, nutrition, and mental wellbeing tools. U.S. users get medical record integration, while everyone benefits from flexible fitness plans and multiple ways to log data, including voice, images, and documents.
Privacy is a key focus. Health Coach is built on Google’s SHARP framework for safety, accuracy, and personalization. Development involved medical experts and Google’s in‑house scientists.
