New Steps Widget and live wallpaper rolling out with Fitbit 4.01 update

Fitbit 4.01 is starting to roll out on Android, bringing new Steps Widget and live wallpaper. The latest version comes with an updated Material You widget and a live wallpaper for step count.
The new “Fitbit Steps Widget” of Fitbit version 4.01 replaces the “Fitbit Primary Goal Widget.” A speed dial design is used while the step count is now inside the shape rather than being located below it, via 9to5Google.

“Displaying daily steps progress,” this “Fitbit Steps Wallpaper” employs a portrait-oriented pill-shaped ring to indicate activity. The differences between the old and new UI are jarring. In other things, there’s still no dark theme.
Google updates Clock app for Wear OS with better Alarm and Stopwatch functionality

Google has updated its Clock app for Wear OS, which brings some minor but useful changes to the Alarm and Stopwatch features of the app. The new version of the Google Clock app for Wear OS is 6.6.171.582642317. It is currently rolling out to the Pixel Watch and Pixel Watch 2.
Now, the Alarm feature allows users to create new alarms more easily, by moving the floating action button (FAB) to the top of the screen, instead of the bottom.
The Stopwatch feature also gets a slight tweak, as it now shows the reset button at all times, instead of only after pausing the timer. This means that users can clear the stopwatch with one tap. However, the update does not affect the Timer feature or the Wear OS Tiles that display the Clock app.
