Health Connect Support

The new update brings the app in line with Google standards on Android devices, which require connection with the Health Connect add-on.

In order for the data to sync properly, you need to activate Health Connect in the Google Fit app, according to the instructions below. In rare cases, with older devices, an additional installation of the Health Connect application may be required.

In case you haven’t used Google Fit, you need to activate Health Connect in the application you use to measure steps if it allows it in the settings (eg Samsung Health).

After completing the settings, you need to restart the app and your steps and kilometers will be displayed smoothly.
