Samsung is officially ending support for two of its older fitness trackers. The company is preparing for the new One UI 8.5 update and the launch of its latest devices. In addition to this, Samsung is retiring older devices that are no longer widely used.

The two devices affected are the Samsung Galaxy Fit and Galaxy Fit e, both released in 2019. The Fit e was a simpler, more affordable version of the Galaxy Fit, designed for people who wanted basic fitness tracking without extra features.

Since these Fit devices release, both devices have been replaced by newer models, including the Galaxy Fit 2 in 2022 and the Galaxy Fit 3 in 2024. Now,  they have been discontinued.

These devices are now seven years old, and Samsung has decided it’s time to stop supporting them. Users who still have a Galaxy Fit or Fit e will no longer be able to use the Galaxy Wearable app to connect or manage their bands after the update.

It is not yet clear if syncing with the Samsung Health app will be affected. So anyone relying on these older trackers may want to avoid updating the Wearable app for now.

The Galaxy Wearable app is also getting a major visual update to match One UI 8.5, bringing a cleaner design and improved features. The update adds support for new devices, including the Galaxy Buds 4 and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro, ahead of Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event on February 25, 2026.

While the Galaxy Fit and Fit e served users well for years, the update encourages users to upgrade to newer options like the Galaxy Fit 3 to enjoy new features and modern capabilities.
