Menu names checked against Withings’s help pages on October 27, 2026. Apps change; if a menu looks different, see the sources below.

After setup

Withings says syncing with Apple Health is not automatic because of an iOS restriction: open the Withings app, open Apple Health, then pull down on the Withings Home tab. Allow at least 15 minutes after a measurement, and check the Withings web dashboard to confirm the data reached Withings' servers first.

Avoid double-counting

Withings imports only steps counted by the iPhone and Apple Watch (not other trackers or manual entries), which limits loops. If you wear both an Apple Watch and a Withings watch, set priority in Health > Browse > Activity > Steps > Data Sources & Access > Edit and drag your preferred source to the top. Step totals differ because Withings and Apple use different algorithms.
