I'm thinking about developing a workout tracking app. To avoid the issue of having to repeatedly download workouts, I want to persist some app model data like Apple does with their Fitness App. At a minimum, the HKWorkout class. Has anyone seen this done before? I'd hate to have reinvent the wheel. HKWorkout: HKSample: HKObject: NSObject.

Hello all, I'm trying to build a watch app for a research study built around heart rate. Currently I have built a IOS app with a companion watchOS app for a firebaseDatabase connection. There are two remaining goals of this project that include the following: While the watch app is in the background or when it's closed, is it possible for the apple watch to send a notification to the user if per say the user's heart rate goes over a custom threshold of 70bpm? If so, how should this be implemented, and can the app be consistently monitoring the heart rate to get accurate realtime notifications, or is does apple limit background updates to periodically? For this study, we want to analyze if user's actually open the watchapp because of the notifications. Is it possible to record data / track user interactions from the notifications? If so, what kind of data can be tracked and how can it be stored?

hello We are currently developing using Healthkit. Starting with xcode15, healthkit throws an error. The code causing the error is HKQuantityType(.stepCount). When I use this code An EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x0) error occurs. The error is: AppDelegate It also appears when I call didFinishLaunchingWithOptions. Is the linker the problem? Or is the Swift version the problem? Or HealthKit? Cleaning and initializing DerivedData I also tried downgrading DriverKit 22.4, but the error still appears. Please tell me how to solve this problem. Test model information is as follows: -iPhone 14 Pro iOS 16.5.1

hello After updating to xcode 15.1 while using xcode 14.3, I keep getting EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0x0) in HealthKit's HKQuantityType(.stepCount). We also created and tested HKQuantityType(.stepCount) in the appDelegate class. But it comes out the same as above. I think there has been a change in library building and linking starting from xcode15. Please guide me what to do about this problem. The test model is iphone 14 pro It's 16.5.1.

Errors: ''Invalid info.plist key. The key 'NSHealthShareUsageDescription'' ''Invalid info.plist key. The key 'NSHealthUpdateUsageDescription'' The app works fine when I just run it on hardware without deployment, but as soon as I try to distribute it, this shows up. The keys above are both defined and described in my App and extensions lists, so what's wrong?

I have the same issues, when i use HKStatisticsCollectionQuery query user step count, there's a big difference in the number of steps I'm query before and after a minute's interval. 2023-12-17 15:45:41 steps=529 2023-12-17 15:46:52 steps=5817 2023-12-19 19:43:59 steps=2680 2023-12-19 19:44:31 steps=5554 What is causing this issue? I would like some assistance, please.

With the recent iPad OS 17 release, Apple added the Health app for the first time. Looking at it, it seems pretty similar to the phone version as the Health app only shows 'historical' health data. My question is this: We are developing an iPad based fitness app. Is there any way of getting real-time health data from the Apple Watch directly to an iPad app? (basically, we just need heart rate). Or, do we have create some sort of workflow through the Phone like Watch -> iPhone running our app -> our servers -> iPad running our app ..to get that real-time data? We really just want Watch -> iPad running our app. I'm afraid I already know the answer but just thought I'd check in case I'm missing something in iOS 17. Thanks!

Our app uses HKWorkoutSession after some actions, to keep app on high priority in background and to keep Apple Watch returns to our app when the watch is waked up. We don't collect or register any activity record. But for some reasons, some users reviewed our app saying that when they're using our app, the Workout app on Apple Watch seems to be affected, ex: Move and exercises is recorded as an abnormal/impossible value... . Is this possible? I don't see any document mention this side effect?

Hello, it is discussed here https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2023/10016/ (12:16) regarding WorkoutComposition, but unfortunately, I cannot find this class or structure in the documentation. Has this concept been removed?

I have created a new project and I have added HomeKit capability but the two control box for Clinical Health Records and Background Delivery can not be switched on. are there any suggestion? thanks a lot valerio

After some years our app has been writing some data to HealthKit we decided to remove this functionality from the app. Permissions were removed from requestAuthorization(toShare:read:completion:) method. For new users everything works fine, but for users who were already asked for writing permission in Settings toggles for permissions are still on. Is it any way to update toggles list in Settings for actual state of permissions? Thanks in advance.

Hi, Our app has an HKObserverQuery and calls enableBackgroundDelivery(...) While running on an iPhone the background wakeup happens. While running on an iPad, it doesn't. The app can successfully query for data while in the foreground on an iPad. Is background delivery expected to work on iPad?

Even if you have granted read permission for specific health data items (such as walking, weight, etc.), calling the function below will return the permission as 'sharingDenied'. How can I obtain 'sharingAuthorized'? let stepType = HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .stepCount)! let authorizationStatus = HKHealthStore().authorizationStatus(for: stepType) //authorizationStatus => sharingDenied

With iOS 17 creation of HKWorkout is deprecated via its init functions and the recommendation is to use HKWorkoutBuilder. If you try to init HKWorkout like you would pre iOS 17 you get this warning of deprecation: The problem is that I am creating this HKWorkout object inside unit tests in order to test a service that works with such objects. And HKWorkoutBuilder requires a HKHealthStore which itself requires to be authenticated to be able to create HKWorkoutActivity instances, like it would be when an app is running. But since the unit tests cannot accept the request on the HKHealthStore I am not sure if using HKWorkoutBuilder inside unit tests is possible. I've also tried to inherit HKHealthStore and override all of its methods, but still, store requires authorization. Any ideas on how to proceed with creating HKWorkout for unit test purposes?

Hello developers, I hope you're all doing well. I've encountered an issue that I'm struggling to resolve, and I'd greatly appreciate any insights or assistance you can offer. Issue Summary: In my watchOS app, I'm utilizing the HKWorkoutSessionDelegate protocol and the workoutSession(_:didFailWithError:) method. While everything works smoothly on watchOS 9.*, I'm facing a problematic inconsistency on watchOS 10.0 and higher. Steps to Reproduce: Create a new watchOS project with a deployment target of watchOS 10.0 or higher. Implement the HKWorkoutSessionDelegate protocol and the workoutSession(_:didFailWithError:) method. Attempt to start a workout session. Expected Behavior: I expect the workout session to commence without any issues, and the delegate method to gracefully handle any errors, without displaying an error message. Actual Behavior: Unfortunately, on watchOS 10.0 and higher, my attempts to initiate a workout session result in an error message: "Cannot start workout session while process is in the background." Version/Build: Affected watchOS versions: 10.0 and higher Non-affected watchOS versions: 9.* Reproducibility: I've confirmed that this issue is reproducible across different projects and on different simulators running watchOS 10.0 and higher. Additional Information: This inconsistency seems to be specific to watchOS versions 10.0 and higher and doesn't occur on watchOS 9.*. It's causing confusion and hampering my development process, and the error message isn't as informative as I'd like. Workaround: I've been unable to identify a workaround for this issue so far. If any of you have insights, solutions, or suggestions, I'd be grateful for your input. Please feel free to share your experiences and thoughts on this matter. Your help is greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time and assistance. Best regards, Leonid

In the wwdc2023-10023 session, we go over how the Apple Watch can be used as a primary workout session manager and the iPhone as the mirrored one. How is it possible to create a workout session on the iPhone and optionally mirror it to the Apple Watch to collect heart rate data? In iOS 17, I still cannot instantiate a HKWorkoutSession, I'm assuming it says it's available because we can have an instance of it as a mirrored copy from the Apple Watch. I find it odd that the iPhone cannot manage the primary session. I hope I'm missing something.
