How do I add my hospital to the list of hospitals available on the Health Records on iPhone application?

I've ran into an error with the insertRouteData function of the HKWorkoutRouteBuilder that I can't seem to find any information on. The error is "Unable to find location series 1A193D3B-AFF5-41D8-A967-B1BE08D9F543 during data insert.". It seems to only happen when trying to insert very long routes, in the most recent case it was a 5 hour bike ride with 5900 samples. I save all the route data in a sqlite table as backup and after checking out the data there isn't any red flags as to why it would not insert correctly. Has anyone seen this before and could offer some insight or point me in the right direction to find the source of the error?

We are seeing an issue where sending data using the asynchronous method HKWorkoutSession.sendToRemoteWorkoutSession(data: Data) will never return in some cases (no success nor failure). This issue is happening for roughly 5% of Workouts started and will stay broken for the whole workout. The other 95% of the workouts, the connection works flawlessly. This happens on both watchOS 10 and 11, and with phones running iOS 17 or 18. The issue is quite random and not reproducible. Our app has thousands of workouts a day that use the workout session workout data send, with constant messages being send every few seconds. In some of those 5% cases the "sendToRemoteWorkoutSession" will throw way later, like 30+ minutes later, if the watch app is awake long enough to capture a log of a failure. Our code uses the same flow as in the sample project: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/healthkit/workouts_and_activity_rings/building_a_multidevice_workout_app Here is some sample code, which is pretty simple. Setup code: let workoutSession = try HKWorkoutSession(healthStore: healthStore, configuration: configuration) workoutSession.delegate = self activeWorkoutSession?.startMirroringToCompanionDevice { success, error in print("Mirroring started on companion device: \(success), error: \(error)") } workoutSession?.prepare() then later we send data using the workout session: do { print("Will send data") try await workoutSession.sendToRemoteWorkoutSession(data: data) print("Successfully sent data") // This nor the error may be called after waiting extensive amounts of time } catch { print("Failed to send data, error: \(error)") // This nor the success may be called after waiting extensive amounts of time } So far, the only fix is to restart the phone and watch at the same time, which is not a great user experience. Is anyone else seeing this issue? or know how to fix this issue?

When we upload workout data to HealthKit the route information with the workout detailed data is incomplete: just a few dots. When we select "Show all workout routes" the route data for the same workout shows correctly. We use the HKWorkoutBuilder to store the workout data, and add the location data with the HKWorkoutRouteBuilder to the workout with Is this an Apple Health issue, or do we have to change something in the way we store the location data to the workout?

For a given date, there are discrepancies between the step counts obtained from HealthKit and those displayed in the Health app. Is it possible for such discrepancies to occur even if step counts are not manually entered and multiple devices are not being used?

For an app that plan to integrate Apple HealthKit to allow app users to upload and download their health data, where can I locate the Data Processing Addendum that specifies who the data controller and processor will be, and how such health data will be used or distributed?

Based on Cooordinate with the companion app in this article by Apple https://developer.apple.com/documentation/healthkit/running-workout-sessions if a workout were to be started on the iPhone companion app but with no Watch available, given HKLiveWorkoutBuilder not available in iOS, does the iPhone app need to implement it's own workout tracking such as a timer for counting the elapsed time and location updates for distance and GPS tracking? If so in an instance where a paired Apple Watch were to exist and the workout is continued in the Watch app should the iPhone companion app stop this custom workout tracking and revert to the mirrored workout from the Watch to ensure accurate and synchronised data between the apps?

读取是不是解析 metadata 的对应键来获取值对吧～但我看了相关开发文档好像没找到这个的键是什么～于是也没法写入到对应的，现在只能自定义键来进行写入 但是这样写入后无法显示在心情下方的影响因素后面～ 这个 key 是没公开的吗还是说我方法弄错了～请各位大大指教

We are working on the health related application and use apple health kit to sync the data from different devices like watches or ring. We are targeting oura ring to get sleep and other parameters data. We are able to sync the data from oura for all other parameters (like pulse, respiratory rate, blood pressure, etc..) other than sleep. Surprisingly, sleep data that comes through other devices is syncing as expected from the health kit. We are even getting the data which is added manually in health kit. The only sleep data not syncing is from oura. Can we get a document or any kind of help to sync the data from oura in to our application using health kit?

In general my workout app is reachable from the iPhone when running a workout, even if in the background. However if the watch app restarts (due to crash or being closed via the dock) via handleActiveWorkoutRecovery then it is only reachable when in the foreground, even though a workout is running. Is this expected / desired behaviour? Is the app given a tighter sandbox (having it's "background privileges" reduced) because of the earlier crash? This behaviour occasionally happens without a crash (or being closed via the dock) - all of a sudden it is no longer reachable via the iPhone. It feels like the app is being "sandboxed" like in #1 but there is no crash or any other kind of log indicating any issue. Generally the only remedy is to stop the workout and restart the app. My question is - is this expected? Is there some condition that causes the watchOS to sandbox the app? Or is this a Watch Connectivity bug?

I'm reading hourly statistics from HealthKit using executeStatisticsCollectionQuery (code below). Expectation What I expect is to get back the list with one row per hour, where each hours has the same cumulative sum value. Actual result In results, first hour always contains less calories than next hours, which all have the same value. Example: Start: 2025-06-02T00:00:00+03:00, anchor: 2025-06-02T00:00:00+03:00, end: 2025-06-02T12:00:00+03:00 🟡 2025-06-02T00:00:00+03:00 Optional(50.3986 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T01:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T02:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T03:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T04:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T05:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T06:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T07:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T08:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T09:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T10:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T11:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T12:00:00+03:00 Optional(14.0224 kcal) As you can see, here we have 2025-06-02T00:00:00+03:00 Optional(50.3986 kcal) Now, if I add one more hour to the request (from beginning of time window), the same hour has proper calories count, while newly added hour, has wrong value): 2025-06-01T23:00:00+03:00, anchor: 2025-06-01T23:00:00+03:00, end: 2025-06-02T12:00:00+03:00. 🟡 2025-06-01T23:00:00+03:00 Optional(50.3986 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T00:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T01:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T02:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T03:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T04:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T05:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T06:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T07:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T08:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T09:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T10:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T11:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) 🟡 2025-06-02T12:00:00+03:00 Optional(14.0224 kcal) And now first hour of the day, magically has more calories burned: 2025-06-02T00:00:00+03:00 Optional(64.421 kcal) I suspect similar things happen with other quantity types, but haven't yet found a way to reproduce it. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug in HealthKit? Code let anchorDate = startDate let predicate = HKQuery.predicateForSamples(withStart: startDate, end: endDate, options: [.strictStartDate]) healthStore.executeStatisticsCollectionQuery( quantityType: .basalEnergyBurned, quantitySamplePredicate: predicate, options: [.separateBySource, .cumulativeSum], anchorDate: anchorDate, intervalComponents: DateComponents(hour: 1), initialResultsHandler: { statistics, error in if let error = error { log(.error, "Error retrieving steps: \(error.localizedDescription)") continuation.resume(throwing: SpikeException("Error retrieving steps: \(error.localizedDescription)")) return } if let statistics { let f = ISO8601DateFormatter() f.timeZone = TimeZone.current for s in statistics { log(.debug, "\(f.string(from: s.startDate)) \(s.sumQuantity())") } } continuation.resume(returning: statistics ?? []) } )

I want to know , how many days will the data of health stays in apple watch . For example, I have not synced the watch with iPhone for two weeks . Then When I synced it , I am only able to see the last week data on iPhone of the watch . Is it true ?

I am experiencing a critical issue with HealthKit authorization in iOS 18.5 where requestAuthorization() calls are immediately denied without showing the user permission dialog. Problem Description: HealthKit authorization requests immediately return .sharingDenied status No system permission dialog is displayed to the user Authorization status changes from .notDetermined to .sharingDenied in <0.1 seconds This occurs for all HealthKit data types (step count, heart rate, sleep analysis, etc.) Technical Details: iOS Version: 18.5 (22F76) Xcode Version: 16F6 Device: iPhone (tested on both simulator and physical device) Bundle IDs tested: com.hereforyou.test2024, com.hereforyou.app Entitlements: com.apple.developer.healthkit = true Code Implementation: let healthStore = HKHealthStore() let stepType = HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .stepCount)! // Status before request: .notDetermined try await healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: [], read: [stepType]) // Status after request: .sharingDenied (immediate, <0.1 seconds) Evidence this is not a code issue: Other HealthKit apps from App Store work correctly on the same device Proper entitlements are configured and verified HKHealthStore.isHealthDataAvailable() returns true Same code worked in previous iOS versions Multiple Bundle IDs tested with same result Expected Behavior: System should display HealthKit permission dialog allowing user to grant/deny access Actual Behavior: Authorization is immediately denied without user interaction Steps to Reproduce: Create new iOS app with HealthKit entitlements Call requestAuthorization() for any HealthKit data type Observe immediate denial without permission dialog Is this a known issue in iOS 18.5? Are there any workarounds or timeline for a fix? Best regards

How to launch companion Watch App without relying on Health Kit? I need my companion watch to launch automatically in some specific cases. What I'm doing to achieve that is to call "startWatchApp" in HKHealthStore(). This worked flawlessly for well over a year but AppReview is now giving me a hard time about using HealthKit without actually using health related data. Is there a way to do the same without using HealthKit? Seems silly that this is bundled only with the HealthKit... If I don't find another solution I will probably be forced to start reading heart rate data and reporting it to the user just so that AppReview will stop saying that I have no reason to use HealthKit... But ideally I'd love to learn about a way to open the companion Watch app without HealthKit and do things the right way...

Hi y’all! This is my first post but I wanted to ask if anyone else has had this happen and fixed it. But I have lost 3 years of fitness and health data upon upgrading to iOS 26 beta 1. I have about 2 gigs of health data in iCloud which I’m praying to Tim is my data lol. But I was wondering if anyone else went through this issue on their test device and yeah.

Hi all, I’m currently running watchOS 26 beta and have been experiencing several sensor-related issues since updating: • Raise to Wake function doesn’t activate reliably or at all. • Heart rate sensor fails to measure or shows inconsistent readings. • Location services are not working properly, affecting workout tracking and apps that rely on GPS. • Blood oxygen (SpO2) measurements are failing or missing completely. I’m not sure exactly when these issues began, but they started after installing the latest beta. I’ve tried restarting and resetting but the problems persist. Has anyone else encountered similar issues? Any insights or fixes would be appreciated! Thanks!

Has anyone had success using the HKWorkoutRouteBuilder in conjunction with the new iOS support for HKLiveWorkoutBuilder? I was running my watchOS code that worked now brought over to iOS and when I call insertRouteData the function never returns. This happens for both the legacy and closure based block patterns. private var workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession? private var workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder? private var serviceSession: CLServiceSession? private var workoutRouteBuilder: HKWorkoutRouteBuilder? private func startRouteBuilder() { Task { @MainActor in self.serviceSession = CLServiceSession(authorization: .whenInUse) self.workoutRouteBuilder = self.workoutBuilder?.seriesBuilder(for: .workoutRoute()) as? HKWorkoutRouteBuilder self.locationUpdateTask = Task { do { for try await update in CLLocationUpdate.liveUpdates(.fitness) { if let location = update.location { self.logger.notice(#function, metadata: [ "location": .stringConvertible(location) ]) try await self.workoutRouteBuilder?.insertRouteData([location]) self.logger.notice("Added location") } } } catch { self.logger.error(#function, metadata: [ "error": .stringConvertible(error.localizedDescription) ]) } } } } I did also try CLLocationManager API with delegate which is what my current watch code uses (a bit old). Same issue. Here is what I've found so far: If the workout session is not running, and if the builder hasn't started collection yet, inserting route data works just fine I've tried different swift language modes, flipped from main actor to non isolated project settings (Xcode 26) Modified Apple's sample code and added location route building to that and reproduced the error, modified sample attached to feedback This issue was identified against Xcode 26 beta 2 and iPhone 16 Pro simulator. Works as expected on my iPhone 13 Pro beta 2. FB18603581 - HealthKit: HKWorkoutRouteBuilder insert call within CLLocationUpdate task never returns

I'm using following filters to fetch swimming activities from HealthKit. For some users it fetches all workouts (pool && open water) but for other it skips some open water activities. See screenshot, all those swimming activities are not fetched by following code. let startDate = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .month, value: -1, to: Date())! let endDate = Date() let swimmingPredicate = HKQuery.predicateForWorkouts(with: .swimming) let timePredicate = HKQuery.predicateForSamples(withStart: startDate, end: endDate, options: .strictStartDate) let predicate = NSCompoundPredicate(andPredicateWithSubpredicates: [swimmingPredicate, timePredicate]) let query = HKSampleQuery(sampleType: .workoutType(), predicate: predicate, limit: HKObjectQueryNoLimit, sortDescriptors: [.init(keyPath: \HKSample.startDate, ascending: false)], resultsHandler: { [weak self] query, samples, error in ... Could someone help with ideads what is missing in this case?

In iOS 26, HKLiveWorkoutBuilder is supported, which we can use like HKWorkoutSession in watchOS - this is very exciting. However, it currently seems to have a bug in calculating calories. I tested it in my app, and for nearly 6 minutes with an average heart rate of 134, it only calculated 8 calories consumed (80 calories per hour), including basal consumption, which is obviously incorrect. (I used Powerboats Pro 2 connected to my phone, which includes heart rate data, and HKLiveWorkoutBuilder correctly collected the heart rate, which is great.) I think my code is correct. func workoutBuilder(_ workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder, didCollectDataOf collectedTypes: Set<HKSampleType>) { for type in collectedTypes { guard let quantityType = type as? HKQuantityType else { return // Nothing to do. } let statistics = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType) if let statistics = statistics { switch statistics.quantityType { case HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate): /// - Tag: SetLabel let heartRateUnit = HKUnit.count().unitDivided(by: HKUnit.minute()) let value = statistics.mostRecentQuantity()?.doubleValue(for: heartRateUnit) let roundedValue = Double( round( 1 * value! ) / 1 ) if let avg = statistics.averageQuantity()?.doubleValue(for: heartRateUnit) { self.avgHeartRate = avg } self.delegate?.didUpdateHeartBeat(self, heartBeat: Int(roundedValue)) case HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .activeEnergyBurned): let energyUnit = HKUnit.kilocalorie() let value = statistics.sumQuantity()?.doubleValue(for: energyUnit) self.totalActiveEnergyBurned = Double(value!) print("didUpdate totalActiveEnergyBurned: \(self.totalActiveEnergyBurned)") self.delegate?.didUpdateEnergyBurned(self, totalEnergy: self.totalActiveEnergyBurned + self.totalBasalEneryBurned) return case HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .basalEnergyBurned): let energyUnit = HKUnit.kilocalorie() let value = statistics.sumQuantity()?.doubleValue(for: energyUnit) self.totalBasalEneryBurned = Double(value!) print("didUpdate totalBasalEneryBurned: \(self.totalBasalEneryBurned)") self.delegate?.didUpdateEnergyBurned(self, totalEnergy: self.totalActiveEnergyBurned + self.totalBasalEneryBurned) return default: print("unhandled quantityType=\(statistics.quantityType) when processing statistics") return } } I think I've found the source of the problem: let workoutConfiguration = HKWorkoutConfiguration() workoutConfiguration.activityType = .traditionalStrengthTraining //walking, running is ok workoutConfiguration.locationType = .outdoor When I set the activityType to walking or running, the calorie results are correct, showing several hundred calories per hour. However, when activityType is set to traditionalStrengthTraining or jumprope, the calculations are incorrect. PS: I'm currently using Xcode 26 beta3 and iOS 26 beta3. Hope this issue can be resolved. Thanks.

Hello, What is the best practice for sending customized workouts to the Apple Watch. For example, sending a running workout that entails: Run 1 mile at 8:00/mile Walk 2 minutes Run 2 mile at 7:00/mile ---- Walk 2 minutes ---- Repeat 2x Run 1 mile at 8:00/mile Any documentation or sample codes would be amazing. Thank you
