I'm currently looking to develop an open source app that can help somebody. I'm currently out of ideas, so I'd like to heard if from you guys.

Sorry if it seems to lazy to ask for ideas like that, I just thought that I could do it since the result will be a free app.

the devices would have to be degoogled so that the app can gather the necessary information? I never used google fit, so I don't know how it works nor how it gathers the user information.

My thinking runs: is it possible to implement the APIs that are called to use google fit, assuming they run through google play services or something
