It’s taken well over a year, but the Jawbone UP finally has an official companion app in Google Play. The device has only been compatible with iOS devices since it launched in November 2011, but now you can track your sleep and physical activity on Android-powered smartphones, too.

Furthermore, starting today, UP will be available in Apple stores across Europe.

UP for Android is almost identical to the iOS version; it looks very similar and it does much the same thing. You can track your activity, record the foods and drinks you consume and track nutritional information, set and achieve goals, and set Smart Sleep Alarms that help you wake up feeling refreshed.

There are a couple of features that are still missing here, such as the ability to share things with your friends via Facebook and Twitter. But the fundamentals are all there.

Just like the iOS version, UP for Android is completely free — though you will need the wristband to use it — and you can download it from Google Play now by hitting the source link below.

UP for Android arrives the same day the device reaches Europe for the first time. All three sizes (small, medium, and large) are now available in all eight colors (onyx, mint green, light grey, navy blue, red, orange, and hunter green) in Apple retail stores, or from Jawbone’s website, priced at €129.99/£99.99.

UP will also be coming to Asia, Australia, and the Middle East next month.
