Google released version 5.07 of its Health app on August 28, 2026. The update lets users add and adjust multiple metrics when they manually record workouts. It also speeds up the display of these changes in workout summaries.

The app’s built‑in map, introduced earlier, now loads more quickly and renders more smoothly. This improvement enhances the overall user experience when reviewing activity routes.

Google said the change expands the app’s health tracking capabilities by giving users greater flexibility to log diverse activities manually. The company noted that the new features support more detailed fitness data without requiring additional sensors.

The update reflects Google’s ongoing effort to integrate comprehensive fitness data into its health ecosystem. No timeline has been announced for further manual logging enhancements.
