Hi just new to trainer day. I am just evaluating to see if it fits my needs. Currently I have all exercises uploaded from their app to either the apple fitness app or directly to the apple heath app so that I can track the data. For example when I ride indoors on my Wahoo Kickr I use the Wahoo fitness app which sync’s recorded data to the apple fitness app which syncs with apple health.
Is there a way to achieve this easily with Trainer Day? I don’t see an easy setup in the Trainer day settings.
Sorry so slow. We don’t have any automatic integration. If you search here people have different solutions to getting stats in Apple health. I will do a quick look now. It seems Strava has some integration or something. I can’t remember exactly.
Ok thanks for the info…I have used both Strava and RunGap but both only sync very basic data…Please add me to the list of people looking for automatic uploading of info to Apple Health…Thanks, Mike
Right. Make sure to first add both the TrainerDay and the Apple Health services.
I configured TrainerDay to be a source only, and vice Verda, Apple Health to be a destination only.
But that’s up to you.
Once set up, refresh and import TD activities.
Then, in the left sidebar tap Sharing and chose Apple.
Worked well as described…the imported data has the detail I’m looking for…I have it configured like you with importing only to Health with Health syncing to Apple fitness to have access to the charts…thanks for the info. Pricing for 3 months is $4.99 CDN
@Alex Any plans on doing an Apple health integration? At the moment I’m using RunGap which works fine, but paying yet again another subscription to simply post data from 1 app to another seems a bit overkill.
I used Strava → Apple health in the past, but this data here indeed was very basic.
Yes for sure. Just no idea how soon we can get to it. We had it working but it cause a bunch of devices to crash so we put it on hold… and that hold has lasted longer than I would like.
Hi Alex, thanks for the swift response! Okay great to hear. Will continue the subscription per 3 months and hope it will be added before the next renewal!
Great app overall though, really enjoying my time on it!
There is a very nice app called HealthFit that displays workout statistics from Apple Health. It’s a reasonably low one-time purchase (I’m unaffiliated, just a happy user).
It has the capacity to import FIT files, although the process is manual and not automatic. So, after a completed workout in TrainerDay, press “Share”, select “FIT”, and in the iOS share menu, select “HealthFit” (you may need to press “More” to find it).
Would also love a Apple Health integration directly from Trainerday!
I have a bunch of older workouts from early 2024 that are in Apple Health with full data. One in August 2024 as well. Was this from when the integration was working but it has since been removed? I’m trying to get that working again but don’t remember how I did it. It shows the Trainer Day app icon for these so they were not imported via Strava. Those show up with the Strava icon (what I have done most recently).
We had it turned on for a while, but it was causing lots of crashes on peoples devices so we turned it off. It worked for some people but not others. We will start re-visiting this soon and making it work. I have an additional developer for the app now and things seem to be moving much faster. It is possible to use RunGap to make it write to apple health as well. Also if you are using Apple watch it works but AW seems to have a bug right now that will be in a new version in the next week or even couple days.
Thanks, I appreciate the information. It’s remarkable what you’ve been able to do on your own. With a second developer I can’t wait to see what you will do.
I was using an Apple Watch so that may have been it. Now I can’t get that to work, but know how challenging that is for developers.
Actually I did dev very early on but I have 3 part time devs but the only mobile app guy has 2 small babies and not enough time, but the new guy is young, motivated and no big commitments and starting out moving fast. Yes testing all the different device possibilities like Apple Watch every release is hard. I just got an Apple Watch to help test it.
