Google is updating its services to address user feedback and expand functionality. In the Google Health app, new code strings indicate upcoming preference controls that will let users disable AI Coach commentary, offering a "No Coach insights" option for a cleaner dashboard. Separately, Google Play is preparing a global rollout of the Age Signals API, which will allow apps to receive broad age range data from users—subject to privacy safeguards—to deliver age-appropriate experiences, with the rollout beginning in Brazil and expanding to Canada, Australia, and worldwide by year‑end.
Google Health version 5.04.1 includes strings for a Coaching preferences menu that lets users choose between full AI Coach messages or basic metric updates.
The Age Signals API will provide apps with user age ranges (0‑12, 13‑15, 16‑17, 18+) without revealing precise personal data.
Initial access to the Age Signals API is available to developers in Brazil, with expansion to Canada, Australia, and a planned global release before the end of the year.
Google requires developers to use Age Signals data solely for age-appropriate experiences and prohibits its use for advertising or analytics.
Users will be able to select the "No Coach insights" option in the new Coaching preferences menu, which removes AI commentary and shows only basic fitness metrics.
The API supplies four broad age ranges: 0‑12, 13‑15, 16‑17, and 18+, allowing apps to tailor content without accessing exact birth dates.
After initial rollout in Brazil, the API will expand to Canada and Australia within weeks and is planned for worldwide availability before the end of the year.
