Apple Health and Google Fit are iPhone and Android’s apps for collecting data from a variety of sources and devices. Think of them as iPhone and Android "collection hubs" for wearable and activity data.
For TeamBuildr, this allows us to bypass integrating directly with all the devices on the market and simply connect with these two apps to pull data from the device or wearable of your choice. It does require that you enable syncs between your devices and either Apple Health or Google Fit.
To see how to connect and sync your device with Apple Health or Google Fit, see the table below:
