FILE IMPORTS

Have you tried to import a workout from a third-party app or device to the Health app? Was some information missing like the map or heart rate data? Better Workouts can import FIT files recorded with your cycling computer or smartwatch. The app will try to save as much data as possible about your workout into the Health app including map, events, heart rate and distance samples. You worked hard for that data and should have full control over it.
