At Google I/O, Wear OS 7 received minimal attention as Google emphasized AI-driven health tools, including a new Fitbit Air fitness band and an AI health coach subscription service. Wear OS 7 updates focus on minor improvements like better battery life and new developer APIs, but the main AI push is toward integrating health data and personalized coaching through Gemini AI. This signals a shift where wearables support AI services rather than being the primary product. Google faces challenges in assuring users about privacy and data security as it expands AI health features. The broader Wear OS 7 rollout is expected later this year, with some AI features regionally limited.
