Health Sync

BlazeFiit reads your health data so your coach can see your daily progress — steps, sleep, calories, heart rate, and more. Data is synced to a secure database whenever you open the app. Your coach only sees the totals, never raw sensor data.

There are two ways BlazeFiit gets your data, depending on your device and wearable:

• On-device sync — reads directly from Apple Health (iPhone) or Health Connect (Android).
• Google Health cloud sync — pulls steps and sleep from the Google Health API. Best for Fitbit users on iPhone, or anyone whose wearable doesn’t write to Apple Health or Health Connect.

If you use an Apple Watch, most workout apps, or any app that writes to Apple Health, BlazeFiit reads your data automatically.

Setup

1. Open BlazeFiit → Settings.
2. Under Health Integration, tap Connect Apple Health.
3. Grant permissions for the categories you want to share (steps, sleep, calories, etc.).
4. Data syncs every time you open the app.

What gets synced

• Steps, active calories, resting calories
• Sleep duration
• Heart rate (average), weight, body fat %
• Distance, workouts

Fitbit on iPhone?

Fitbit does not write data to Apple Health natively. If you use a Fitbit with an iPhone, use Google Health cloud sync instead (see below).

If Fitbit data is only visible inside the Fitbit app and has not been shared to Apple Health or Google Health, BlazeFiit will not be able to read it from the iPhone directly.

Android phones use Health Connect as the central health data hub. Samsung Health, Google Fit, Fitbit, Garmin Connect, and other apps write data there.

Setup

1. Install Health Connect from the Play Store (pre-installed on most newer phones).
2. Open BlazeFiit → Settings.
3. Under Health Integration, tap Connect Health Connect.
4. Grant the requested permissions.

What gets synced

• Steps, active calories, resting calories
• Sleep duration
• Heart rate (average), weight, body fat %
• Distance, workouts

Steps showing 0?

Your health app (Samsung Health, Fitbit, etc.) needs to share data with Health Connect. Open your health app’s settings and enable Health Connect sharing. Then pull down to refresh in BlazeFiit.

Samsung watch + phone double-counting

If you have a watch and phone, multiple apps may record the same steps to Health Connect. BlazeFiit uses Health Connect's Activity-app priority and reconciles overlapping timestamps so duplicate intervals are counted once. If your steps look wrong, ask your coach to check the Steps source on your profile.

Fitbit + Samsung sleep differences

If Fitbit, Samsung Health, or another wearable writes the same overnight sleep session into Health Connect, each app may show a slightly different total. BlazeFiit compares overlapping sleep sessions instead of adding them together, then keeps the most reliable matching session and includes only separate non-overlapping sleep blocks such as a later nap.

If your sleep total looks like two apps were combined, open your wearable app and Health Connect first, then ask your coach to check the detected wearable source on your profile.

If your wearable syncs to Google Health (formerly Fitbit), you can connect BlazeFiit directly to the Google Health cloud. This is the recommended option for:

• Fitbit users on iPhone (Fitbit doesn’t sync to Apple Health)
• Pixel Watch users
• Anyone whose wearable syncs to Google but not Health Connect or Apple Health

Setup

Fitbit users must move their Fitbit account to Google first. If you still sign in with an older Fitbit account, Google Health may not return your steps or sleep to BlazeFiit. Follow Google’s Fitbit account migration guide before connecting Google Health in BlazeFiit.

1. Make sure your Fitbit / Pixel Watch data is syncing to your Google account (open the Google Health or Fitbit app and confirm).
2. Open BlazeFiit → Settings → Health integrations.
3. Tap Connect Google Health.
4. Sign in with the Google account linked to your Fitbit / wearable.
5. Grant BlazeFiit permission to read your activity and sleep data.
6. You’ll see Connected in Settings. Tap Sync now to pull your latest data.

What gets synced

• Steps (daily total)
• Sleep (total minutes)

Other metrics (calories, heart rate, weight) are not currently pulled from Google Health. If you also have Health Connect or Apple Health connected, those metrics will still sync from your device.

If you use both Google Health and device health

You can connect Google Health alongside Apple Health or Health Connect. For steps and sleep, Google Health may be used as the preferred connected source when it returns data for the day; your device health data remains the fallback if Google Health cannot return today’s data. BlazeFiit does not intentionally add the two totals together.

Disconnecting

Go to Settings → Health integrations and tap Disconnect. BlazeFiit will revoke its access token. You can also remove BlazeFiit from your Google account at myaccount.google.com/connections.

• BlazeFiit only reads your data — it never writes health data back to Apple Health, Health Connect, or Google Health.
• Your data is stored securely and shared only with your assigned coach within your gym.
• You can disconnect any integration at any time in Settings.
• Deleting your BlazeFiit account removes all stored health data. See our Privacy Policy for details.
