Is there a specific reason for this? Does the Fitbit app rely on Play Services?

I don’t care too much for on wrist calls or anything like that. I just want to use the Fitbit app to sync stats and mostly display notifications from WhatsApp and my personal apps.

I don't know how the app works under the hood, but Google owns Fitbit

I should have know that. Now I understand what you meant in your first comment.

As long as the app doesn’t rely on Play Services it shouldn’t be a problem. By “degoogled” phone I mostly mean taking Google out of the critical (privileged) path in the OS for software and app updates.
