Whoop Support

Whoop Data Available in Apple Health for Fuel Users

When users connect their Whoop wearable to the Whoop app and enable Apple Health integration, a range of health and fitness data is synced to Apple Health. This allows Fuel to access this data via HealthKit, offering insights into users' activity, sleep, and recovery metrics. Note that Whoop's Apple Health integration is available only for iOS devices.

Data Exported from Whoop to Apple Health

The following data types are synced from Whoop to Apple Health and can be accessed by Fuel once integration is enabled and permissions are granted:

• Workouts Auto-detected activities like running, cycling, or strength training.
• Active Energy Calories burned during physical activities.
• Heart Rate Measured during activities such as sleep, workouts, or daily routines (e.g., running, tennis).
• Sleep Tracking Detailed sleep data, including duration and stages.
• Resting Heart Rate (RHR) A vital recovery metric reflecting baseline heart rate.
• Respiratory Rate Breathing patterns, typically captured during sleep.
• Blood Oxygen (SpO2) Oxygen saturation levels, often recorded during sleep.
• Steps Daily step counts (if enabled in Whoop settings).

Data Not Exported

HRV Not Exported

Whoop does not export Heart Rate Variability (HRV) to Apple Health due to differing measurement methods (Whoop uses RMSSD, while Apple Health uses SDNN).

ECG and Blood Pressure

Whoop MG does not export ECG or Blood Pressure Insights to Apple Health due to regulatory restrictions.

The HRV limitation

Setting Up the Integration

To ensure Fuel can access Whoop data through HealthKit:

1. Enable Integration in Whoop:

• Open the Whoop app > More (bottom-right) > App Settings > Integrations > Apple Health > Connect.
• Select Turn on all or choose specific data categories, then tap Allow.

1. Grant Permissions in Apple Health:

• Go to iPhone Settings > Health > Data Access & Devices > Whoop.
• Toggle on the desired data categories.

1. Check Fuel Permissions:

• Ensure Fuel has permission to read the relevant HealthKit data types (e.g., Workouts, Heart Rate) via iPhone Settings > Health > Apps > Fuel.

Key Considerations

Sync Timing

Data syncs to Apple Health after an activity or sleep session is logged in Whoop. For real-time access, ensure the Whoop app is updated and background app refresh is enabled (Settings > General > Background App Refresh).

Duplicate Workouts

If users enable both import and export of workouts in Whoop, Apple Health may show duplicates. To fix this, disable Workouts export in Apple Health (Health app > Sources > Whoop > toggle off Workouts).

Step Overlaps

If users wear multiple devices (e.g., Apple Watch and Whoop), step counts might overlap. Prioritize Whoop as the step source in Apple Health (Health app > Profile > Devices > Whoop > Data Sources & Access > Edit).

Data Variations

Minor differences in calorie or activity data may occur due to Whoop's unique algorithms compared to Apple Health.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Why don't I see Whoop data in Fuel?

Verify that Apple Health integration is active in the Whoop app, Fuel has HealthKit permissions, and background app refresh is enabled for both apps.

Can Fuel access Whoop's HRV data?

No, Whoop does not export HRV to Apple Health, so it's unavailable to Fuel.

How do I prevent duplicate workout entries?

In Apple Health, disable Workouts export from Whoop if you're tracking activities elsewhere.

Does Whoop sync meditation or stretching to Apple Health?

No, recovery activities like meditation and stretching are not exported.

Can I remove Whoop data from Apple Health?

Yes, delete specific categories or all Whoop data via the Health app (Sources > Whoop > Delete All Data).
