Learn how to sync steps from the Apple Health app into Wellbeing+
Now that you’ve connected the Health app, learn how to sync your data to Wellbeing+. We’ll also show you how to make sure you’ve got data available to sync!
The Syncing Process
To sync to Wellbeing+, you just need to open your Wellbeing+ app and wait to see a ‘Last synced:' message to confirm that you’ve synced.
We recommend syncing by opening the Wellbeing+ app at least once a day during your challenge.
All Wellbeing+ challenges have a 72-hour grace period after the challenge ends to give you extra time to sync your final steps, so make sure you sync before the grace period is up!
Where Does Wellbeing+ Get My Data?
Wellbeing+ pulls your activity data from the Health app. The Health app can track step and distance data on its own (Note: Active minutes aren’t recorded by the Health app. Learn more here.) to allow your iPhone to work as your fitness tracker, or you can connect another device or app to the Health app like Polar, Pebble, or Xiaomi devices. The activity data from that device or app will need to be present in the Health app in order to sync to Wellbeing+.
If steps, distance, or minutes aren’t showing here, then they can’t sync to Wellbeing+:
If activity data isn’t showing in Apple Health or syncing correctly to Wellbeing+, please see these troubleshooting tips for iPhone (Health app) users.
