Fitness app?

[Aflaaaak]

I had a Fitness Tracking app on my LG G4 that came with the phone. It automatically tracked each day's distance/calories and logged them to see what I did each day, could also be brought up as a stand alone event to start and stop for walking, running or biking. Is the Google Fit Activity Tracking a good version of this? I don't have a Smart Watch and just want basic stuff that has an easy to use interface.
Thanks!

Yup works exactly as you described the LG G4 app.

Yes, it works very similar to what was on the G4.

Thanks guys! Do I have to turn it on or does it run in the background automatically? The LG was always on, even after phone restarts and Close All Apps.

It will be on automatically as long as you open it once. Pretty sure you have to grant it permissions first time though could be wrong.

Guess I'll find out .

Good point! Android 12 is very stingy with permissions, which I guess is a good thing, right?

MyFitnessPal is good for tracking food and caloric intake. If you have a fitness tracker, Garmin, Fitbit, etc they have their own apps which are good.
