This is an overview of the data types current versions of popular apps are storing in the Google Fit Platform. See the footnotes for issues that might require app-specific workarounds. The apps were all installed on a Nexus 4 running Android 5.1.1, and the data was retrieved through Google Fit's REST API. Let us know about other apps to add to this list, or updates.
