Health Data - Getting Started - Mobile App – My PT Hub

The app can bring in your activity and sleep from your phone, so you and your trainer see everything in one place. On iPhone this comes through Apple Health. On Android it comes through Health Connect. Fitbit, Garmin, Whoop and most other wearables connect through these.

Before you start

Update to the latest version of the app.
iPhone: Apple Health is already on your phone.
Android: on Android 14 and later, Health Connect is built into your phone rather than being a separate app. You'll find it in your phone's Settings (search for "Health Connect"). On Android 13 and earlier, install the Health Connect app from the Google Play Store.

Turn on health data sync

In the app, go to Settings → Feature Settings → Integration Connections.
Turn on Apple Health (iPhone) or Health Connect (Android).
When your phone asks for permission, choose Turn On All (iPhone) or Allow all (Android), so all your data can sync.
Go to Hub → Integrations to see your data.

On iPhone, Integration Connections only shows integrations that work on iPhone. On Android, Google Fit still shows until it ends in December 2026. Switch to Health Connect before then.

Connect a Fitbit

Fitbit no longer connects to the app directly. Your Fitbit data now comes through the Google Health app (previously the Fitbit app).

Open the Google Health app (the new name for the Fitbit app) and sign in with your Google account. If you don't have it, install it from the App Store or Google Play.
In Google Health, turn on sharing with Apple Health (iPhone) or Health Connect (Android).
In this app, make sure Apple Health or Health Connect is turned on (see Turn on health data sync above).
Put Google Health at the top of your data sources, so your Fitbit's numbers are used instead of your phone's and nothing is counted twice:

iPhone: open the Health app → Browse → choose a data type (for example Steps) → Data Sources & Access → Edit. Drag Google Health to the top of the list and tap Done. Do this for Steps, Walking + Running Distance, Flights Climbed, Active Energy and Sleep.

Android: open your phone's Settings and search for Health Connect. Go to Manage data → Data sources and priority, choose a category (for example Activity), and move Google Health to the top. Do the same for Sleep. Menu names can vary slightly between phones.

Connect another watch or app

Garmin, Whoop, Samsung Health and most other wearables can share their data with Apple Health or Health Connect. Turn on sharing in that app's own settings, then make sure Apple Health or Health Connect is on in this app.

What data syncs

Apple Health (iPhone) and Health Connect (Android) sync the same data:

Steps
Distance
Floors climbed
Active calories
Total calories
Sleep duration

This includes data written by other apps and wearables, such as Fitbit (through Google Health), Garmin and Whoop. Other data in Apple Health or Health Connect, such as heart rate or weight, isn't brought in.

Workouts

iPhone: workouts saved in Apple Health show on the Workout Data tab on Hub → Integrations. This includes workouts from Apple Watch and from other apps and watches that share workouts with Apple Health, such as Fitbit (through Google Health), Garmin Connect or Strava.

Each workout shows:

Activity type, for example Walking, Running, Yoga or High Intensity Interval Training. Activities the app doesn't recognise show as Other.
Date and start time
Duration
Calories burned (kcal)
Distance, in km or miles. Activities without distance, such as yoga, show 0.
Source, shown by the app's logo, for example Apple Watch, Garmin Connect or Strava

Use 1d, 1w or 1m to choose how far back to look, and the filter to show only certain activities or sources. Your trainer sees the same Workout Data tab when they view your integrations.

Android: workouts aren't brought in from Health Connect yet, so there's no Workout Data tab. Your steps, distance, calories and sleep from those workouts still count towards your daily totals.

When your data syncs

When you open the app.
When you come back to the app after switching to another app.
When you go back to the Hub, if it's been more than 5 minutes since the last sync.
Whenever you pull down to refresh, or tap Sync now, on the Integrations tab.

The app doesn't sync in the background, so open it regularly to keep your data up to date. If you haven't opened the app for 48 hours, you'll get a notification reminding you.

When you first connect, the app brings in your last 30 days of data. After that, each sync updates the last 30 days.

How your trainer sees your data

Your trainer can see your synced data in the app or on the web, under Contacts → [your name] → Integration Activity. Apple Health and Health Connect data each have their own tab, including any Fitbit data that comes through Google Health. On iPhone, your workouts also show on the Workout Data tab. The old Fitbit tab has been removed.

Custom branded apps

Health data sync works the same in your trainer's own branded app as it does in My PT Hub, on both iPhone and Android.
