Finally, Huawei Health users can synchronize or share their activities with Strava. Users can now link Strava with the Huawei Health app to permit data sharing. Since the first Huawei Watch GT, most of the users were demanding Strava support, and finally, the company listened to them. In the launching event of Huawei Watch D at the Berlin IFA 2022 event, the company officially announced it. In last October, Strava support was opened for limited users in Indonesia & Spain. Now, it is a global rollout, and all Huawei smartwatch users can use it.
Before it, Google Fit was the only option for users to synchronize their health data, and Strava is the second option to arrive on the Health app. Previously, users were using a third-party app called Health Sync to connect the app to the Strava account. Most of the users never found third-party apps secure and waited for official support.
To share your daily activities with Strava, open the Huawei health app. In the app, go to the profile or ‘Me’ option. Here, choose the Privacy Management option. On the next page, you will see the Data sharing & authorization option. Click on it. Finally, you can see the new Strava service, and you can connect or link with it.
To sync your activities, you just need to log in to your Strava account. Go to the official Strava website, and sign in to your account. The users of the Huawei Watch D, Watch GT series, Watch Fit series, Huawei Watch 3 & Watch 3 Pro will get a new sharing option.
Huawei has opened its Huawei Watch 3 AppGallary for third-party developers. There is a chance in the future, we may see the official Strava app in the AppGallary. Huawei Watches will soon get new HarmonyOS software, which will grab some attention from global app developers.
I don’t have privacy management mode on my HUAWEI health app. I’m so pissed I bought this watch and just found out I can’t sync anything to strava Nike Run Club or runstatic that’s why the watches from HUAWEI are cheap.
Any update about this so far?
I currently use health sync but a built in feature would be even better.
I’m in France.
I can’t see the option (there is only Google Fit in the list). I am in Italy, Europe
I have tried many time to link Huawei Health app to Strava. Each time, I encounter this message pop up: “Network connection failed. Please check your network settings or try again later.” No problem with my network or any of my other apps. So, my conclusion is the link is not working.
Will this work just for huawei phone owners or it will be available also for iPhone users? As currently I don’t have data sharing and authorisation option in huawei health app on ios available.
I would gladly use your app, but I was very sad anout your reply that you are not even thinking about a version for ios users. I don’t understand why are you so ignorant about ios users! In my opinion there are many users of great huawei watches who would like to have it linked to strava. But with such ignorant responce from your side it will never be possible.
It is nice that Huawei adds this link option with Strava to Huawei Health. Our source in Huawei told us that this option won’t become available in Europe.
Health Sync is a reliable app to sync data from Huawei Health to Strava. We guarantee user data privacy by processing all data in the app on the phone. We do not use user data in any way. We are glad that we can offer the activity sync to Strava, but also to other apps/platforms.
