## What is Health Exporter & Shortcuts?

Health Exporter & Shortcuts makes it easy to export your Apple Health data and workouts to clean, structured JSON files — in one tap or fully automated with Siri Shortcuts.
Whether you're a developer, athlete, or quantified self enthusiast, Health Exporter gives you full control over your health information.

— WHAT YOU CAN EXPORT —
Choose from 22 health data types across five categories:
• Activity: Step Count, Walking Distance, Active Calories, Basal Calories, Exercise Minutes, Flights Climbed
• Heart: Resting Heart Rate, Walking Heart Rate, Heart Rate Variability, Oxygen Saturation, Respiratory Rate
• Body: Weight, BMI, Body Fat Percentage, Lean Body Mass
• Nutrition: Dietary Energy, Protein, Carbohydrates, Total Fat
• Sleep & Other: Sleep Time, VO2 Max, Wrist Temperature
Select exactly the data types you need — or export everything at once.

— WORKOUT EXPORT —
Export your complete workout history with full detail:
• 81 activity types: running, cycling, swimming, strength training, yoga, HIIT, martial arts, and more
• Each workout with start/end time, duration, and detailed statistics (calories, heart rate, distance)
• Events: pauses, laps, segments, and markers
• Source device tracking (iPhone, Apple Watch, third-party apps)
• Optional GPS route with the heart rate measured along it, as coordinates in the JSON or one GPX file per workout
• Routes are off until you turn them on, and never leave your device
Only workout types with actual data in your selected period are shown.

— FLEXIBLE DATE RANGES —
Pick any custom date range or use quick presets:
• Yesterday
• Last 7 days
• Last 30 days

— SMART AGGREGATION —
Health data is aggregated daily using the right method for each type:
• Activity data is summed (total steps per day)
• Heart metrics are averaged (mean heart rate per day)
• Body measurements use the most recent value
• Sleep counts only actual sleep stages (core, deep, REM) — not time in bed
Workouts are exported individually — every detail of each session is preserved.

— AUTOMATE WITH SHORTCUTS —
Two built-in Siri Shortcuts for full automation:
• Export Health Data: daily aggregated health metrics
• Export Workouts: individual workout records with activity type filter
Schedule exports, save to iCloud Drive, share via email or AirDrop, upload to APIs, or chain with other Shortcuts. Both return ready-to-use JSON files.

— CLEAN JSON OUTPUT —
Every export produces a well-structured JSON file with:
• Pretty-printed, human-readable formatting
• Sorted keys for consistent diffs
• Export metadata (date range, app version, included types)
Perfect for spreadsheets, databases, Python scripts, or any JSON-compatible tool.

— PRIVACY FIRST —
• 100% on-device — your health data never leaves your iPhone
• No account required — no sign-up, no login
• No cloud sync, no data brokers, no cross-app tracking
• Read-only HealthKit access — the app cannot modify your data
• No ads — only anonymous usage analytics (no personal data collected)

Your data is yours. Period.

— SIMPLE BY DESIGN —
Select your data types, pick a date range, tap Export. That's it.
No subscriptions. No in-app purchases.

— WHO IS THIS FOR? —
• Developers who want health data in JSON
• Athletes and coaches tracking workout performance
• Data analysts exploring personal health trends
• Automation enthusiasts building pipelines with Shortcuts
• Privacy-conscious users who want data without third-party servers
• Anyone who needs health data in a portable, open format

### 5/5 — 支持一下中文吧

*2026-05-14*

请更新一下中文 并针对锁屏导致空数据的情况，进行优化

**Developer response:** 您好，非常感谢您的反馈！

我们已经在计划中加入了简体中文的支持，很快会在未来的更新中推出。

关于锁屏时数据为空的问题：这是因为 iOS 在设备锁定后会保护健康数据，导致 HealthKit 无法访问。我们正在改进这一点，下个版本中，快捷指令在设备锁定时会显示清晰的错误提示，而不是返回空数据。临时解决办法：请在运行快捷指令前先解锁 iPhone。

再次感谢您帮助我们改进 App！

### 2/5 — Crashed

*2026-03-17*

Sorry but it just crash when I hit export please fix, I think hiking works fine but not swimming

**Developer response:** You nailed it, the crash was specifically related to swimming and similar workout types. We found and fixed the bug in version 1.2.0, which also adds support for more workout metrics like power, speed, and water temperature. The update is on its way to the App Store now. Thanks for the detailed report, it really helped us track it down!

### 4/5 — Easy and reliable

*2026-03-14*

Simple, unfussy, one time purchase app that reliably exports data from Apple Health into JSON for analysis with other tools. For a long time I wanted to feed health data to Claude and Gemini to optimize workout and diet plans - this app was the missing piece!

**Developer response:** That's exactly the use case we built this for, so glad it clicked for you\! Feeding health data to AI for workout and diet optimization is a brilliant workflow. Thanks for the kind words.
