SyncToHealth is an independent app. It is not made by, affiliated with or endorsed by Garmin Ltd. or its subsidiaries, or by Apple Inc. It works with FIT files from Garmin devices, and it doesn’t use any Garmin service or account.
It reads FIT files from your watch or bike computer and writes each activity to Apple Health as a complete workout: the route, the full heart-rate series, power, cadence, running dynamics, laps and more. Every import ends with a Receipt that shows what was written and what was skipped, and why.
No. There is no sign-in of any kind: no SyncToHealth account and no Garmin login. You give the app FIT files, and it writes to Apple Health on your iPhone.
An iPhone running iOS 27, and FIT files from your device. SyncToHealth works with FIT files from Garmin devices.
See the step-by-step export guide, with pictures.
Not on its own schedule. SyncToHealth never connects to anyone’s cloud, so it only sees files you give it. With Folder Watch, it checks your chosen folder every time you open the app, and sometimes in the background when iOS allows. The Share sheet, Files and the “Import FIT files” shortcut work whenever you use them.
Nothing is added twice. Each activity is recognised by the identity stored inside its FIT file, however it reached the app. If a file’s content has changed since the last import, SyncToHealth replaces only its own earlier workout and marks the Receipt “Revised”.
SyncToHealth doesn’t add a second copy. It marks the import “Already in Apple Health” and its Receipt shows what the existing copy is missing, such as the route or the full heart-rate series. Apple Health only lets the app that wrote a workout delete it, so if you want the complete version, delete the other copy in the Health app and tap Upgrade.
No. SyncToHealth remembers that you removed it and won’t import it again, even if Folder Watch finds the file again. If you change your mind, tap Restore on that activity.
Routes, full heart rate, distance, active energy, elevation, temperature, laps and pauses; cycling power, cadence and speed; running power, speed, stride length, vertical oscillation and ground contact time; pool and open-water swims; triathlons leg by leg. See the full list.
They’re planned for a later update, for the kinds of daily data your FIT files actually carry. Today SyncToHealth imports workouts.
No. Everything happens on your iPhone and there is no SyncToHealth server. Crash reports contain no health data and can be turned off; anonymous usage statistics are off unless you turn them on. Read the Privacy Policy.
