HealthFit Reviews

by Michaelpquint

HealthFit was great before the update to iOS 13. Before the latest app update, all my data would sync to Strava automagically in the background. Even on the iOS 13 beta, this functionality worked flawlessly. Now the developer says that auto background sync is not allowed in iOS 13 thereby making the user manually update their app. Ugh. Not sure about all of that. HealthFit was great before their latest app update for iOS 13. I won’t be updating and will plan to hang on to my auto sync in the background my using the previous version of HealthFit. Warning, if you enjoy this background auto sync functionality then I’d recommend that you do the same!

HealthFit was very easy to set up: A couple minutes after download to configure what data I wanted sync’d, and I was off and swimming/running. I actually spent most of my time remembering my logins for the data syncs like Strava, SmashRun, and Dropbox. :-)

For me, the key feature HealthFit enabled was pulling activity data off my AppleWatch+iPhone into a storage sync of my choice. Without it, I had to get multiple activity apps for the variety of workouts I do (e.g., Strava doesn’t track swimming). this app simplifies things for me in the background, with very prompt synchronizations (feels like seconds between when I wake up my phone, to when I get notified of sync completion).

When the start time of my activities uploaded to Strava didn’t look right, and I reached out to support, Stèphane was very responsive and helpful in chasing down the cause, which turned to be Strava not using time zone information. Stèphane even went out of her way to share potential solutions Strava-side. This demonstrated the developer’s dedication and passion for the success of HealthFit!

I love HealthFit, and the statistics and information that it shows at a glance. All of my workouts on the platforms I use, my Apple Watch metrics over time, graphs and trends.
I like that you can export the data and I may find that useful in the future, but haven’t yet tried.
A few things I wish for are an iPad version, and a Internet/cloud platform to view the same information on a computer.
This is a very useful app for anyone interested in looking at their health and exercise in a statistical manner.

Love HealthFit. Bought it years ago just to get be able to get Apple Watch info into Strava without using the Strava app for workouts. With the addition of TSB and TRIMP data, it is now my first stop for performance metrics. I would love to see some integration with Zwift. Zwift->apple fitness->this app strips out the bulk of the data (hr, routes, TRIMP) and the only workaround I found is to download FIT files from Zwift and import them into this app.

I gotta say that HealthFit is excellent for migrating data from apples resident fitness app out to Strava. Now this app has the heart rate data from my swim transfering over to Strava which eliminate the need to buy Garmins swim strap(if you use multiple watches for tracking fitness).

Update: app just keeps getting better.. I’d give it 6 stars

Update: HealthFit give so much useful data for training. Such as fatigue and form. Your cardio scoring. Thank you this app

I’ve enjoyed working out utilizing a couple of Garmin devices for about 4 years. My wife got me an Apple Watch 3 recently, which I’ve enjoyed, but was disappointed that I couldn’t see my workout data on Garmin Connect (GC) as it would not sync over automatically from my AW3 to GC. So I found myself using the Garmin devices for working out and the AW3 for the rest of my day.....not really utilizing the AW3 as much as I’d like.

I read a review of this app online and how it can aid in transferring files to GC in an easy manner. I reached out to the developer of this app as to how I would move AW3 workouts to GC. First, she responded back soooo quickly, even though I told her in my initial message that would not be necessary. Second, she provided step-by-step, easy to follow instructions, going so far as to include some pictures to help with the instructions! So helpful! I’m a fan!

HealthFit now has me using my AW3 to its fullest potential (or at least as I want to fully use it).

I’ve been really struggling with Apple Health’s ability to present my work out data in a way that can help drive insights for improvement (which has always been a staple of my Garmin watch/Garmin Connect). I’m happy to say that this app solves all of this! Who knew all of this great workout data was “trapped” in Apple Health??

Also to call out is the GREAT support that I have received from Stephane and the this app team! They really stand behind their product!

This started out as a simple useful little app, long ago I set it to do a few things automatically for me, then I put it away in a little folder and forgot about it until a recent update. All this time it’s been happily churning along faithfully doing it’s tasks. Much to my surprise the developers have turned this thing into a really good app. I’m most impressed bu the elevation and speed charts. Heck it’s now doing a lot of what two other apps have been doing.

I got my new Apple Watch and went on a bike ride. I like the Apple Workout, Activity, and Health applications. Then I discovered there was no way to have my workouts uploaded to Strava. That is until I found this app. this app perfectly syncs all my Apple Workouts! The bonus of this product is the customer service. I started asking questions on their message board at 10PM PST... and got complete answers to all my questions in real-time.... awesome to say the least. Highly Recommended App!

...still sync to Strava. The fact is, Strava is very important to me, but it’s no secret that Strava completely ignores their Apple Watch users, making the experience beyond subpar. Even Apple’s default “workout” app does a far better job at tracking live runs with average, rolling, and live paces, pace alerts, stride length/cadence.
But I digress since this review is about this app, a great tool to help you try any workout tool, and have it sync, and export to others - geez what a simple concept, and it works! Thanks everyone who continues to work on this.

THE ONLY APP that does what Apple somehow fails to do with Apple Health/Activities/Workouts.

I have years of activities recorded in Garmin Connect since I used to use Garmin watched and devices to track my workouts. Imagine my surprise when I switched to an Apple Watch and discovered that Apple doesn’t provide a way for me to export my workouts to another service.

I tried a number of other apps and platform syncing services to solve this riddle. this app meets the bill, and does it splendidly.

HealthFit fits exactly what I needed, to get me coach an easy feed of all my health data. Great layout, simple design, lots of great options to help bridge getting my Apple Health Data out of my phone and onto my other platforms! I did find one small issue integrating with TrainingPeaks so I sent a message for support. Was contacted in just a few hours on a Weekend night and shared logs and information, and they made a new test app version and am working through the issue - which appears to be o. trainingPeaks end, so they are working with them to resolve. Beyond a great app, the support exceeds expectations!

I prob have a silly system, but I wear the Apple Watch all day, record ultimate frisbee and running workouts with the watch (or Strava app, but moving 100% to the watch), I cycle with an Elemnt Bolt and indoor cycle with my iPad and FulGaz.
I use Strava for social sharing. In the past I’ve used garmin so have some history there as well as Runmeter, polar and Nike + (back in the pre gps days!).
HealthFit helps get my workouts recorded in the Apple Watch to Strava and workouts recorded elsewhere completed documented in the Activity App with its useful import feature (with complete HR and GPS data!)
Anyways best $3 I’ve spent in a very long time.

If you care about your health data and want an incredible way to export it to basically every services you can think of, THIS is HealthFit .

On top of that, the visualizations are fantastic, HealthFit itself is incredibly smooth and clearly expertly-designed, and it works flawlessly 100% of the time, which is not something you can say about most apps these days made by a single developer!

I seriously recommend giving it a download if you are looking for automatic, background exports of your HealthKit data. No other app comes close.

I am a big fan of the this app app. I was looking for an effective and user-friendly way to record and log my health metrics and workouts. I also needed a solution for converting and syncing my Apple watch activities with Strava. this app “fits” the bill. I am able to view all my health data and activities from my Apple watch, smart scale, sleep app and other sources using this app. I can selectively sync my workouts to my Strava account with ease. To top it off, the online support is excellent. I submitted a question to support at 10:00 pm PST and received a response that addressed my problem within two minutes. Now, that’s customer service!

I’ve been struggling with various apps and methods for a long time to simply be able to use Apple Watch workout and also have the data imported/exported where it want it to go. HealthFit accomplishes it’s goal by simply working. It just works—that’s all we need. To be able to run and automatically sync the workout to where I want finally giving me the freedom I’ve been looking for. If you want to use Apple’s Health kit and export/sync to other services as well HealthFit will achieve that perfectly. As a bonus, the statistics that HealthFit shows for a run are phenomenal itself, actually gives you more data than Strava does on a per-run basis.

So many apps promise the world abd leave a user disappointed, but not this app. It does what it says it does, abd does do nearly flawlessly. It doesn’t track anything but it makes the apps that do the tracking communicate with each other much better. For me, it takes my Apple Watch metrics abd shares then with training peaks . It also allows me to take workouts tracked from almost any of my apps and seamlessly link it to the others.
Abd when I’ve had questions or a suggestion, the developer has gotten back to me in no time. This is someone who saw a need, programmed a solution, and cares about their business . A user can’t ask for more.

A beautiful repository of data and information that plays well with loads of apps and services.

It looks like a native app built by Apple and is great to use.

I use it to automatically push workouts to Strava and Google Sheets, which lets me share my workouts with others and analyze them myself - seriously, the auto-upload to Google Drive is amazing.

It uploads every single workout into 1 sheet in 1 spreadsheet, and then individual sheets for different workout types to aggregate them logically. Not only does it upload workouts, it uploads Health Metrics broken up by Weight, Sleep, and Daily Metrics like calories, resting heart rate, HRV, steps, and VO2 max. That way you can own your own data and do anything you want with it. I’m excited to be able to do data analysis on all of my data.

Other perks? One-time charge rather than a monthly charge like competing apps. Responsive dev who responded to my email within a day to help me resolve an issue I had.

Wishlist? 1. Include dietary info in the Health Metrics like calories, sugars, etc. 2. Allow for the editing of workouts. 3. Include cadence info.

Initially, I started using HealthFit to be able to sync my workouts to Strava. Eventually, when Strava increased their prices I stopped using Strava, and instead continued using HealthFit to review and determine trends in my work out. I found that HealthFit is really easy to navigate and has a lot of helpful information that's organized very well. I can see my trends year-over-year as well as week over week, and by different categories of workouts. It aggregates the information very nicely and presents it in nice graphs & charts. Highly recommend HealthFit, I think it's great value for the money. The developers keep adding new features that are very nice.

HealthFit does such a good job parsing FIT files and exporting to Apple Health that I do not just use it for apps that don’t support Apple Health but I turn off native integration in others, manually exporting FIT files and importing with this app.

So many other apps always fail to export some aspect of the workout, most often heart rate with makes that app’s integration near useless. this app gets around other apps’ terribleness, making Apple Health valuable. Without this app I would have no use for Apple Health because it would hold nothing close to accurate data.
