Fitbit restores Google Cast support for workout videos after abrupt removal

Google Cast is back in Fitbit [website]—check for updates.

If you have a compatible TV or Chromecast device on your network, you should see the Cast icon in the corner of workout videos, just like [website] consumers on the enterprise’s official forums have confirmed the feature is working again, and Google has also acknowledged that this enhancement restores Cast support. However, some consumers have reported that they still don’t see the Cast icon, which points to the rollout might be gradual. If you’re still missing the feature, make sure your app is updated to the latest version.

It’s great that Cast is back, but there are no noticeable improvements or added elements. The functionality appears identical to what was available before its removal—meaning no extra stats, real-time workout metrics, or Fitbit-specific integrations.

This is disappointing for some, especially since Google previously hinted at deeper Fitbit integration with Google TV, a feature that still hasn’t materialized after more than two years. A more advanced Fitbit TV app or additional health-tracking aspects would have made a significant difference, but for now, individuals will have to settle for what was already there before it was inexplicably removed.

While this is a welcome improvement, Fitbit clients remain frustrated by how inconsistently Google has handled its fitness platform. Why was Cast support removed in the first place? Why did it take two months to bring back such a basic feature? These are questions that remain unanswered.

For now, at least, Fitbit individuals can enjoy their workout videos on a larger screen again, but the back-and-forth decisions on feature support raise concerns about Fitbit’s long-term roadmap under Google.

Now, with the latest Fitbit app enhancement, Google Cast functionality has returned . Unfortunately though, no one has provided any real explanation for why it was taken away to begin with.

Your chance to finally buy last year’s most desirable foldable may nearly be here

While consumer demand was high, sales of the Mate XT were initially limited to China.

HUAWEI has now scheduled an event for February 18 where the enterprise teases news of expanded Mate XT sales.

Companies that make the best foldable smartphones have been seriously pushing manufacturing limits over the past year or so, bringing us some stunning hardware like the impressively thin Oppo Find N5. Sadly for many of us, some of those coolest foldable models aren’t available in many markets, often arriving as China exclusives. The good news there is that sales can always expand, like we just heard about Oppo planning for the Find N5. Now we’re learning new details about another high-end foldable’s plans for international expansion.

We’re talking about the HUAWEI Mate XT, which debuted last year as the first foldable model that bends twice, for a three-screen effect. While that novel construction and huge [website] display instantly made this one of the most desirable foldables to date, it was also prohibitively expensive, demanding in the neighborhood of $3,000.

Initial Mate XT sales have been limited to China, but it wasn’t long after the smartphone’s arrival that we were able to confirm with HUAWEI plans to expand Mate XT sales internationally, starting sometime in the first quarter of 2025. Right on schedule, HUAWEI has posted an announcement on X for a February 18 event.

While HUAWEI doesn’t mention the Mate XT by name, it’s impossible to look at this teaser with its Z-shaped device and see it as anything else than a reference to the dual-fold Mate XT.

Probably the biggest question we have concerns which markets Mate XT sales will ultimately come to. The fact that this event is scheduled to take place in Malaysia probably indicates broader availability across Asia, and we’d like to think that HUAWEI is very interested in European sales, but may have to wait until February 18 for specifics. Then there’s the issue of the phone’s sky-high price, and how that will translate across currencies — just be prepared for some sticker shock.

Will you be lining up to drop a several thousand dollars on the Mate XT when it comes to your neck of the woods? Or are you tempted to wait things out for another triple-screen foldable, like maybe Samsung’s rumored Galaxy G Fold? Let us know your preference down in the comments.

Meta finally has a hit in the smart glasses sector, as their Ray-Ban smart glasses have sold 1 million units in 2024.

Get ready for a lot more wearables from Meta

Meta’s smart glasses have come a long way since their launch back in 2023. In fact, the corporation in recent times presented that over 1 million units were sold in 2024. This success appears to have put some wind behind the social media giant’s sails as it plans to launch six new AI wearables this year.

Business Insider has shared a memo from Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth that was sent to staff in November. The leaked memo, titled “2025: The Year of Greatness,” reveals the enterprise’s plans for 2025.

Bosworth mentions that they want to continue “pushing our advantage,” likely referring to its Ray-Ban smart glasses. It then goes on to reveal that Meta intends to release “half a dozen” more wearables in 2025.

Next year is going to be the most critical year in my 8 years at Reality Labs. We have the best portfolio of products we’ve ever had in market and are pushing our advantage by launching half a dozen more AI powered wearables. We need to drive sales, retention, and engagement across the board but especially in MR. And Horizon Worlds on mobile absolutely has to break out for our long term plans to have a chance. If you don’t feel the weight of history on you then you aren’t paying attention. This year likely determines whether this entire effort will go down as the work of visionaries or a legendary misadventure.

Launching six hardware products in the same year would be a record for the organization. However, it’s crucial to keep in mind that this memo is a few months old at this point. It’s possible that Meta could have changed its strategy since then.
