These are two different data sources, and neither is tied to a specific tracker; both are aggregators that surface whatever apps and devices have written into them.

  • Google (web): a browser-based auth flow with no app code, pulling whatever sits in the user's Google account.

  • Google Fit (Health Connect): reads from Android's Health Connect store and requires the Mobile SDK embedded in your app (SDK-only, no web flow).

Use Google (web) if you have no mobile app, and Health Connect via the SDK if you do.
