Charge 4, Versa 2 and Inspire 2 users can now also gain access to Health Metrics, which previously required a premium subscription. This dashboard shows trends for certain health metrics -- including breathing rate during sleep and heart rate variability -- over a recent period of time, The Verge reported on Wednesday.

Premium subscribers still get a little extra information, since their dashboards will show a full month's worth of information while the free version shows only seven days, the report said.

Fitbit, recently acquired by Google, also continues to expand access to its EKG feature on the Sense, making it available to customers in Canada, New Zealand and US territories.
