Google begins phased rollout of version 5.12 of its health application across mobile platforms

Google has started rolling out version 5.12 of the Google Health app on Android and iOS. The company expects the phased release to continue over the next week. The software update introduces manual blood pressure entry, pregnancy logging, revamped glucose graphs, and broader support for medical record integrations. [2][3]

Users can now record blood pressure readings manually via the app or sync them through Apple Health or Health Connect, while Google Health Premium subscribers can log them by chatting with the Health Coach. The update also lets users track pregnancy directly through Cycle Health settings, which pauses standard period alerts and alters the tracking page to show current weeks. A new glucose visualization in the Metabolic Health section overlays sleep, nutrition, and exercise events onto graphs, and food items entered within a 60-minute window now automatically group together.

The release expands medical records integration, enabling users with records in England to sync data from participating NHS general practices and hospitals through Patients Know Best, alongside new support for Function Health lab data. Google also addressed an issue that caused Resilience scores to skew artificially low, stating that scores will now calculate correctly and older entries will be revised. [2][3]
