How to Track Workouts Without a Smartwatch on iOS

You can track your workouts and activity using your iPhone without an Apple Watch. The Apple Fitness app can use your iPhone's built-in motion sensors to track activity, and your data can be shared with Wellness Coach through Apple Health.

Make sure you have:

  • An iPhone with the Fitness app installed.
  • Apple Health permissions turned on for Fitness.
  • Wellness Coach connected to Apple Health.

Step 1: Set Up the Fitness App on Your iPhone

  1. Open the Fitness app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap Continue.
  3. Enter your personal information when prompted.
  4. Complete the setup process.

The Fitness app allows you to view activity progress, steps, distance, and completed workouts directly from your iPhone.

Step 2: Enable Fitness Data in Apple Health

To make sure your activity data is available for Wellness Coach:

  1. Open the Health app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap your profile picture in the top-right corner.
  3. Select Apps.
  4. Tap Fitness.
  5. Turn on the permissions you want to share, including activity-related data.

Step 3: Connect Apple Health to Wellness Coach

  1. Open the Wellness Coach app.
  2. Tap Me in the bottom-right corner.
  3. Tap Sync.
  4. Select Apple Health.
  5. Turn on the connection and allow the requested permissions.

Once connected, Wellness Coach will begin receiving eligible activity data from Apple Health.

Important Tip:
  • If your data is not syncing, try disconnecting and reconnecting Apple Health through the Wellness Coach app.
