Google Health Connect and Healthie

Healthie integrates with Google Health Connect (formerly, Google Fit) to enable clients to sync their Google Fit app data with Healthie, and for a provider to view that data.

Data pulled from Google Health Connect into Healthie

Healthie will pull the following activity and metrics data, if they have been enabled by the client, from Google Health Connect into Healthie:

Steps
Weight
Sleep
Walking distance
Running
Cycling
Swimming
Meditation/Mindfulness
Body fat percentage
Waist circumference
Food/meal tracking (if available)
Number of activity minutes and additional details (ie. sleep quality)

If you would like another metric or activity type to be added, please Contact Us for consideration.

Disable Google Health Connect

If you would like to turn off the ability for your clients to sync their Google Health Connect with Healthie, you can navigate to Settings, and disable "Google Health Connect." This can be enabled / disabled on a global, group, and individual client basis. If you have disabled this, Clients will not see the ability to Integrate their Google Health Connect account with Healthie when they navigate to Integrations.

Sync Details

Google Health Connect syncs every 2 hours with the Healthie app.

Additionally, in order for information to sync properly, you as the provider must enable the ability to track metrics that sync from Google Health Connect within the client's settings. Navigate to your client's profile, and click on "Actions" and select the "Settings" tab. Under the "Metrics" box, you can select/de-select the metrics setting you wish to track for your client. For example, if the "Weight" button is not selected, weight data will not sync from Google Health Connect, even if the client has linked their Google Health Connect account with Healthie.

View Entries from Google Health Connect

Metrics entered into Healthie are visible in a Client's Journal section.

Data synced from Google Health Connect appears with the tag "Google Health Connect" on the specific entry.

Clients can log into the Healthie Website or Healthie Mobile App, navigate to "Integrations," and Connect with Google Health Connect.

Note: Please make sure you have enabled this integration for the client. Otherwise, they will not see an option to Connect their Google Health Connect account.

Here is a guide you can share with clients, to walk them through set up: Sync your Google Health Connect Account with Healthie

Help Android clients share Fitbit data

On Android, the sharing path is Fitbit → Google Health → Health Connect → Healthie.

Clients must connect Fitbit to Google Health, configure Google Health to share data with Health Connect, and set up the Health Connect integration in Healthie using the client guide above. Connecting Fitbit to Google Health alone does not complete the Healthie setup.

Enable Google Health Connect and the relevant tracking settings for the client. The separate Fitbit and Google Fit integration settings do not enable Health Connect.

Notes

This integration is Free & included on all Healthie membership plans
Data entered in Healthie will not push into Google Health Connect
Data syncs from a client's Google Health Connect account into Healthie once daily, around 8:30am Eastern Time
