Hi ​@Rawarontex ,

I’ve done some searching and it appears that Huawei doesn't support swim activities syncing to Strava - here's a thread with their representative’s answer - outdoor running, outdoor walking and outdoor cycling are supported to sync to the Strava:

People at Reddit recommend using the Health Sync app as a workaround:

Hi ​@Yoelwp008 , did it happen to sync your laps for you?  I can get my GT6 Pro to sync to Strava, but despite having 24 laps on Huawei Health app, I only have one (very large) lap on Strava.

I quite surprised that Huawei is *still* not programming this correctly.   How difficult can it really be to take the data, already available in the app, and push this to Strava in the correct fields?

Walking. Hiking are all missing steps.  Swimming is missing laps.   All of this information is available to Huawei, why are they not simply including it!?

Hi ​@hnk , yup, i experienced the same issue with you, especially on swim and cycling where it does not display the splits on Strava. So i think this is the current limitation swim Huawei sync to strava. All we can do is just to hope that Huawei somehow improve their sync granularity or we change our device 😅. 

 

- Hear us o' Huawei 🙌🙌

 

P. S. This is my screenshots for the my bike and swim, it does not display any km (on bike) or 100m splits (on swim)
