Write heart rate to Apple Health

[BryanC]

We all know that Strava can write to Apple Health, but you only write a limited data set. 

I would like you to extend that data set to include heart rate.  That way I can see heart rate analysis from the ride within Strava and see my overall heart rate across the whole day in Apple Health.  

Strava and Apple Health will then be even more complementary to each other. 

Thanks

I'd add, it will be nice to have it not limit it by workout source like Strava does with routes. Currently Strava will not update the Health App with routes from Garmin.

Good point

+1 to this.  Rather than needing to use a 3rd party app to do it (RunGap), just send the HR data (as well as power, cadence, and any other metic Apple health supports)

[fishroy]

+1 - Having to pay for another app (RunGap) just to get data into Apple Health when already paying a premium for Strava is rather frustrating.  Apple's HealthKit API makes writing this trivial (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/healthkit/hkquantitytypeidentifier/1615138-heartrate).

Exactly my point and why I raised the feature request.  
You shouldn’t have to be a developer to get this type of information into Apple

Any news from Strava admin as to whether this has made it to the backlog?

[Alexwarnold]

any news, or work around? I’d like athlytic to be able to read my heart rate from strava, athlytic can already get my starve workout from apple health but it only gets the calories, it’s missing heart rate

[Sc00terMcGavin]

No, only workaround is RunGap.  Seems to not be a priority for Strava to implement.

I would love to see this implemented!

Thanks

Signed up to community for this feature.  Seems pretty pointless to send some stuff to Health and not HR

[alobban]

Would love this added. New user and very surprised to see that this was missing, I thought something had to be broken until I found out it just wasn’t supported.
when strava already sends some data why not heart rate, surely trivial to add this?

Please add this, that you also write the heart rate to Apple health as well. It is unfortunately that you still do not write this to health. It is so basic data. This would avoid to have to purchase as separate app just to write the heart rate data to Apple health. It is one step more that has to be done. Please get this implemented.

thanks

I couldn’t agree more with his request. I am only wanting to use the analytics from Strava. I use MyWhoosh as my app of choice for my spin bike and Strava then to link to Apple Fitness which is my main tool for managing my fitness. I have no interest in the rest of the features of this app such as groups, maps or different activities offered. 

Not having this basic data written to Apple Health, when it already links to Apple Health, is the main reason I don’t subscribe to Strava. 

I would suggest here is a fairly large market segment like me who just want the analysis of their workouts Strava can provide. Please add this and a fair pricing structure.

@Janne When can we expect the status to change and for this to either move to the development backlog or get declined?    Hopefully the former. 🤞
