    Samsung has long led the way when it comes to Android smartwatches. While its wearables do an excellent job of tracking health and fitness metrics in the Samsung Health app, Samsung smartwatch owners don’t have many options when it comes to sharing and exporting their data. Google Fit, Google’s fitness tracking platform, serves as a central hub for fitness data from different fitness apps and services. The problem is that Samsung Health doesn’t allow exporting its data to Google Fit.

    Google aims to solve this problem with Health Connect, which unifies health data from multiple apps and services into one place where connected apps can easily access it. Here’s how to sync your Samsung Health data to Google Fit using Health Connect.


    What is a Healthy Connection?

    Healthy Connection-1

    Health Connect is a platform consisting of a set of APIs where multiple applications and services can read (or write) your health metrics. Currently, fitness apps must manually integrate with other similar services to share data. For example, if you track your runs with Strava, other apps like Sleep My Cycle won’t see the data. Likewise, if you use Sleep as Android to monitor your sleep quality, you won’t be able to view data from other fitness tracking apps if they haven’t added support for them.

    Health Connect aims to solve this problem. Each fitness app can write the data it collects to Health Connect, and another app can pull that data. This way, apps can share data with each other without any privacy risks.

    Health Connect supports the sharing of a range of health data including activity types, body measurements, period tracking, vital signs and more.
