How to sync Huawei with Apple Health

Partly. HUAWEI Health for iPhone has a built-in HealthKit sharing option, and Huawei documents that it writes workouts and weight to Apple Health; steps and activity energy also come through, but heart rate and sleep are inconsistent and HRV, SpO2 and VO2 max are not shared. For fuller data, the third-party Health Sync app copies Huawei Health cloud data to Apple Health.

How to connect Huawei to Apple Health

5 steps on your iPhone, about two minutes.

Before you start

  • iPhone with HUAWEI Health (in Europe the App Store listing is "HUAWEI Health: Europe", in some markets "HUAWEI Health: Global")
  • Huawei watch or band paired in HUAWEI Health
  • Huawei ID signed in
  1. Open HUAWEI Health

    Update the app and make sure the watch has synced (Me > Settings > Sync until it reaches 100%).

  2. Find HealthKit sharing

    Tap Me (bottom right), scroll to Third-party services and open the Health/HealthKit sharing option. Labels vary by language and version; the app may also offer it on first launch.

    1. Me
    2. Third-party services
    3. Health/HealthKit sharing option
  3. Grant permissions

    Tap Turn On All (or choose categories), then Allow.

  4. Check Apple Health

    Health app > tap your profile picture > Privacy > Apps > HUAWEI Health, and make sure the categories are on.

    2. profile picture
    3. Privacy
    4. Apps
    5. HUAWEI Health
  5. Optional: Health Sync for more data

    In HUAWEI Health go to Me > Privacy management and allow cloud links, then Me > Third-party services and link Health Service Kit. Install Health Sync by appyhapps, choose HUAWEI Health as source and Apple Health as destination. The first data can take a few hours.

Bridge apps for Huawei

Independent apps that copy Huawei data into Apple Health. Prices as listed on the App Store on October 27, 2026.

  • Health Sync by appyhapps

    On-device sync from HUAWEI Health (via Huawei cloud) to Apple Health; requires HUAWEI Health Kit availability in your region

After setup

Native sharing happens when HUAWEI Health syncs with the watch and is open or refreshing in the background. Health Sync pulls from the Huawei cloud, so HUAWEI Health must upload first (open it and run Me > Settings > Sync). Health Sync can run in the background when Background App Refresh is on and Low Power Mode is off, but workout locations sync only when the phone is unlocked.

Avoid double-counting

Don't write the same data with both HUAWEI Health and Health Sync, or steps and workouts will double. Pick one writer per type, and set the steps priority in Health > Browse > Activity > Steps > Data Sources & Access > Edit. Health Sync also suggests turning off the iPhone's own step counting (Settings > Privacy & Security > Motion & Fitness) if Apple Health keeps showing extra steps.

Put HUAWEI Health first in Apple Health

  1. Health
  2. Browse
  3. Activity
  4. Steps
  5. Data Sources & Access
  6. Edit
  1. Open the Health app and tap Browse.
  2. Choose a category and a data type, for example Activity → Steps.
  3. Scroll down and tap Data Sources & Access.
  4. Tap Edit, then touch and hold the handle next to your device’s app and drag it to the top.
  5. Tap Done. Repeat for other data types you track with more than one device, such as Active Energy or Walking + Running Distance.

The source at the top wins when several write the same data type. New apps and devices are added at the top automatically. Apple Support ↗

Huawei not syncing to Apple Health?

Steps in Apple Health are lower than in HUAWEI Health

Huawei data often hasn't uploaded yet because of iOS background limits. Open HUAWEI Health, run Me > Settings > Sync, keep the phone unlocked for a minute, and check the source priority in Apple Health.

Workouts don't appear in Apple Health

Check Health > profile > Apps > HUAWEI Health has Workouts enabled, then re-sync the watch. If it stays empty, Health Sync is the usual workaround.

Sleep stopped syncing

Users report this after iOS updates. Re-grant sleep permission; some users found it changed with TruSleep settings. Health Sync is the more reliable route for sleep.

Health Sync says Health Kit is not supported in my country

HUAWEI Health Kit is available only in some regions. Health Sync documents a workaround that needs a new Huawei ID, which means losing access to existing data.

Health Sync shows a wrong Huawei account error

Re-authorise in Health Sync under Connected apps > HUAWEI Health Kit Authorization using the login ID shown in HUAWEI Health's Personal info.

WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR HUAWEI DATA

Your Huawei data, with an AI coach

Once Huawei syncs to Apple Health, P.R.O. reads it. Ask the AI coach about your training and it answers with your real numbers.

  • AI coach chat grounded in your own workouts, sleep and heart rate
  • Widget dashboards for the numbers you care about
  • Training history across 50+ sports, with records and trends
  • Adaptive training plans that follow your load and recovery
  • Sleep score for every night

You can also ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Perplexity about your Huawei data through the free P.R.O. connector.

Huawei and Apple Health: questions

Does Huawei Health sync with Apple Health?

Yes, partly. HUAWEI Health writes workouts, weight and basic activity to Apple Health; detailed vitals and sleep are unreliable or absent.

Does a Huawei Watch work with an iPhone?

Yes, Huawei watches and bands pair with an iPhone through HUAWEI Health, with fewer features than on Android.

Does Huawei sync sleep to Apple Health?

Not reliably through the native option. Health Sync by appyhapps says it syncs detailed sleep from HUAWEI Health to Apple Health.

Does Huawei send heart rate variability to Apple Health?

Not natively. Health Sync lists HRV among the data it can copy.

Why are there two HUAWEI Health apps in the App Store?

Huawei publishes regional editions; in Europe "HUAWEI Health: Europe" is the version that supports HUAWEI Health+ on iPhone. Both listings describe the same HealthKit sharing.
