AppIntent, StartWorkoutIntent, and Siri
I'm a bit confused as to what we're supposed to be doing to support starting a workout using Siri in iOS/watchOS 26. On one hand, I see a big push to move towards App Intents and shortcuts rather than SiriKit. On the other hand, I see that some of the things I would expect to work with App Intents well... don't work. BUT - I'm also not sure it isn't just developer error on my part. Here are some assertions that I'm hoping someone more skilled and knowledgable can correct me on: Currently the StartWorkoutIntent only serves the Action button on the Watch Ultra. It cannot be used to register Shortcuts, nor does Siri respond to it. I can use objects inherited from AppIntent to create shortcuts, but this requires an additional permission to run a shortcut if a user starts a workout with Siri. AppIntent shortcuts requires the user to say "Start a workout in " - if the user leaves out the "in " part, Siri will not prompt the user to select my app. If I want to allow the user to simply say "Start a Workout" and have Siri prompt the user for input as to which app it should use, I must currently use the older SiriKit to do so. Are these assertions correct - or am I just implementing something incorrectly? Using the latest Xcode 26 beta for what it is worth.

How to add "Estimated Time in Each Heart Rate Zone" info to my custom HKWorkout when viewed in Apple Fitness app?
Hello, I’m currently developing a fitness app for watchOS that lets a user to manually set a desired heart rate target zone (enter numbers representing the lower and upper boundaries) and start a workout (right now it’s only “Other” type). After that my app monitors user’s heart rate and alerts them when they’re out of zone. When user ends the workout, the info about this workout appears on “Fitness” iOS app, and user can see the workout data like Workout Time, Active and Total Calories, Avg. Heart Rate. Also user can see Heart Rate chart with info how their heart rate was changing during a workout (see the Figure 1). Now to the question. When user clicks “Show More” button above the Heart Rate chart, they can see the same Heart Rate chart and another one, with Post-Workout Heart Rate (see the Figure 2). But there is no “Estimated time in each heart rate zone” as one can see in the workout’s details that were recorded from Apple’s workout (watchOS “Workout” app, for a workout of “Other” type as well). Please see the Figure 3. The question is: is it possible to add “Estimated time in each heart rate zone” to workout recorded via my third-party app so it would look like on the Figure 3 in "Fitness" iOS app, and if it's possible, what steps should I undertake to implement this ? Thanks in advance! I posted the screenshots in the replies to the post, because otherwise I was not able to submit a post ("sensitive language" warning, I suspect it's because of the ids in the attached screenshot's urls)

HKObserverQuery not working in background
I'm developing a single target watchOS app that obtains HealthKit information. I have the "Background Delivery" option checked under "Signing & Capabilities" for the watch target. The app does HKObserverQueries in the foreground that work as I would expect. But when I click the Digital Crown to return to clock face, the HKObserverQuery activity stops. I'm using Xcode 15.4, on Mac 14.5 and a Apple Watch Series 4 running 10.5.

HKLiveWorkoutBuilder only reporting heart rate - No other measurements
I'm using Healthkit with the following H/W specs: Apple Watch, series 8, OS: 10.6.1 (21U580) iPhone 11 Pro, OS: 17.6.1 Mac Studio M1 Xcode ver: 16.0 (16A242d) I am trying to get Apple Watch to report heart rate, HRV, respiratory rate, and body temperature using Healthkit's HKLiveWorkoutBuilder implementing HKLiveWorkoutBuilderDelegate's workoutBuilder method. However, the only reported value that is found from the workoutBuilder method's collectedTypes (a Set of HKSampleType objects) is HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeartRate. Nothing for HRV, respiratory rate, or body temperature. All entitlements are set up, the plist filled in, and capabilities in place. Not sure why only the heart rate is reported from the watch but nothing else. I've scoured StackOverflow, Apple developer forums, even ChatGPT but none of the solutions work. Any help most appreciate! The model code is: import Foundation import HealthKit class WatchModel: NSObject, HKLiveWorkoutBuilderDelegate, HKWorkoutSessionDelegate { private let healthStore = HKHealthStore() private var workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession! private var workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder! override init() { super.init() requestAuthorization() startWorkoutSession() } private func requestAuthorization() { let heartRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate)! let respiratoryRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .respiratoryRate)! let HRVRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRateVariabilitySDNN)! let temperatureRateType = HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .bodyTemperature)! let healthDataTypes: Set = [heartRateType, respiratoryRateType, HRVRateType, temperatureRateType] healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: healthDataTypes, read: healthDataTypes) { (success, error) in if !success { print("Authorization failed") } } } func workoutSession(_ workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession, didChangeTo toState: HKWorkoutSessionState, from fromState: HKWorkoutSessionState, date: Date) { } func workoutSession(_ workoutSession: HKWorkoutSession, didFailWithError error: any Error) { } func workoutBuilderDidCollectEvent(_ workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder) { } func startWorkoutSession() { let configuration = HKWorkoutConfiguration() configuration.activityType = .other configuration.locationType = .indoor do { workoutSession = try HKWorkoutSession(healthStore: healthStore, configuration: configuration) workoutBuilder = workoutSession.associatedWorkoutBuilder() workoutBuilder.delegate = self workoutBuilder.dataSource = HKLiveWorkoutDataSource(healthStore: healthStore, workoutConfiguration: configuration) let dataSource = HKLiveWorkoutDataSource(healthStore: healthStore, workoutConfiguration: configuration) let respiratoryRate = HKQuantityType(.respiratoryRate) dataSource.enableCollection(for: respiratoryRate, predicate: nil) let bodyTemp = HKQuantityType(.bodyTemperature) dataSource.enableCollection(for: bodyTemp, predicate: nil) let hrv = HKQuantityType(.heartRateVariabilitySDNN) dataSource.enableCollection(for: hrv, predicate: nil) workoutSession.delegate = self workoutSession.startActivity(with: Date()) workoutBuilder.beginCollection(withStart: Date(), completion: { (success, error) in if let error = error { print("Error starting collection: \(error.localizedDescription)") } }) } catch { print("Failed to start workout session: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } func workoutBuilder(_ workoutBuilder: HKLiveWorkoutBuilder, didCollectDataOf collectedTypes: Set<HKSampleType>) { print("collected types: \(collectedTypes)") for type in collectedTypes { if let quantityType = type as? HKQuantityType { if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate) { if let heartRateQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let heartRateUnit = HKUnit(from: "count/min") let heartRateValue = heartRateQuantity.doubleValue(for: heartRateUnit) print("heart rate: \(heartRateValue)") } } if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRateVariabilitySDNN) { if let hrvQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let hrvUnit = HKUnit.secondUnit(with: .milli) let hrvValue = hrvQuantity.doubleValue(for: hrvUnit) print("HRV: \(hrvValue)") } } if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .bodyTemperature) { if let bodyTempQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let tempUnit = HKUnit.degreeCelsius() let tempValue = bodyTempQuantity.doubleValue(for: tempUnit) print("body temp: \(tempValue)") } } if quantityType == HKQuantityType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .respiratoryRate) { if let respRateQuantity = workoutBuilder.statistics(for: quantityType)?.mostRecentQuantity() { let respRateUnit = HKUnit(from: "count/min") let respRateValue = respRateQuantity.doubleValue(for: respRateUnit) print("breathing: \(respRateValue)") } } } } } }

Workout Effort Scores
Is there anywhere that describes in detail how third party workout apps can use the new effort score functionality? I can't see much in the documentation or any of the WWDC videos. In particular it would be useful to know if an effort score is automatically calculated for workouts created with third party apps? It doesn't seem to happen but some people say it takes weeks / months before watchOS starts calculating it for third party apps. If it doesn't happen automatically then how can the app set it? I tried the new relateWorkoutEffortSample API but that didn't work for me (see https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/763539). If I could get it working then how should I determine a default effort score based on the workout metrics? Is that something that the app should do? If so then it would be good to be consistent with watchOS so some idea of how that is calculating effort scores would be useful. Sorry for all the questions, especially if there is an article in the documentation or a video that I have missed.

Mirroring Workouts Sample Code Doesn't Work With Simulators
I've realised with the sample code from the WWDC video below I'm getting the following error when trying to use the iPhone simulator and apple watch simulator paired. Whenever i try to test out the sample project I'm getting the following error. Failed to send data: Error Domain=com.apple.healthkit Code=300 "Remote device is unreachable" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Remote device is unreachable, NSUnderlyingError=0x600000c9c900 {Error Domain=RPErrorDomain Code=-6727 "kNotFoundErr ('rapport:rdid:PairedCompanion' not found)" UserInfo={cuErrorDesc=kNotFoundErr ('rapport:rdid:PairedCompanion' not found), cuErrorMsg='rapport:rdid:PairedCompanion' not found, NSLocalizedDescription=kNotFoundErr ('rapport:rdid:PairedCompanion' not found)}}} Is it not possible to not test out the new WorkoutKit mirroring API's using the simulator? Currently right now if you run the project you'll notice that you can start a workout session on the iPhone > Apple Watch but there is no way to control and mirror on both devices at the moment i.e You can't control the iPhone app on the Apple Watch and vice versa. Also because of this the iPhone can't send data to the Apple Watch i.e. pause, end, water etc. I'm guessing this is meant to be possible since it seems a bit strange to only be able to test this out with actual devices.

Walking speed
I´m working within the health felid with a few apps. Accordingly to science one of the most important parts to keep healthy is every day walking. But it is not to walk slow. You need to come to a little speed (not running or even jogging). But to rais your puls. This is when you get the "real health effect". In general it is around 6km/h. It would be great if apple could make this info available for us developers. I think lots of developers will be happa and use this to make better apps and get more people in a healtheyer life. Looking forward to get some feedback on this. Thank you! Cheers Peter

Proper method to handle error in statisticsUpdateHandler?
In my app the the statisticsUpdateHandler fetches data from the HealthKit when I open the app from sleeping/standby state. This works fine, except when I leave the app running in the foreground and close the phone for an extended period. This triggers the .errorDatabaseInaccessible error. This seems to stop the statisticsUpdateHandler, maybe set it to nil or something similar. What is the proper way to handle the error to keep it running? As shown in the code below I have tried setting the completion data to the current data. But it stills seems to exit, and thus require a complete restart of the app to re-register the update handler. Thanks Tommy Task { do { try await healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: [], read:healtTypes) fetchPast14daysData() } catch { print("Error requesting access to health data") } } func fetchDiscreteData(startDate: Date, type: HKQuantityTypeIdentifier, completion: @escaping([WorkoutMetric]) -> Void) { let datatype = HKQuantityType(type) let interval = DateComponents(day: 1) let query = HKStatisticsCollectionQuery(quantityType: datatype, quantitySamplePredicate: nil, options: .discreteAverage, anchorDate: startDate, intervalComponents: interval) query.initialResultsHandler = { query, result, error in ... } query.statisticsUpdateHandler = { query, statistics, result, error in var lock_error_detected: Bool = false // Handle errors here. if let error = error as? HKError { switch (error.code) { case .errorDatabaseInaccessible: lock_error_detected = true default: // Handle other HealthKit errors here. DispatchQueue.main.async { self.update_error = error.userInfo[NSLocalizedDescriptionKey] as? String } return } } var data = [WorkoutMetric]() if lock_error_detected { if (type == .heartRateVariabilitySDNN) { data = self.HRV } else { data = self.restingPulse } } else { guard let result = result else { completion([]) return } result.enumerateStatistics(from: startDate, to: Date()) { statistics, stop in if ( type == .heartRateVariabilitySDNN) { let value = Float(statistics.averageQuantity()?.doubleValue(for: .secondUnit(with: .milli)) ?? 0.0) //print("HRV data \(value)") if (value > 1) { data.append(WorkoutMetric(date: statistics.startDate, Value: value, Average: 0.0)) } } else if ( type == .restingHeartRate) { let value = Float(statistics.averageQuantity()?.doubleValue(for: .hertzUnit(with: .none)) ?? 0.0) //print("Resting hearth rate : \(value) at date \(statistics.startDate)") if (value > 0.01) { data.append(WorkoutMetric(date: statistics.startDate, Value: value*60, Average: 0.0)) } } } let _ = calculate_average(days: self.averagePeriod, workouts: &data) } completion(data) } healthStore.execute(query) } extension HealthManager { func fetchPast14daysData() { fetchCumulativeData(startDate: Date().daysAgoAligned(days: daysToFetchDataFor), type: .distanceWalkingRunning) { dailyDistance in DispatchQueue.main.async { self.distanceData = dailyDistance } .. ..

HKStatisticsCollectionQuery or HKStatisticsCollectionQueryDescriptor
Hi, there seems to be two methods to fetch data from HealthKit and calculate statistics on intervals of the data; HKStatisticsCollectionQuery and HKStatisticsCollectionQueryDescriptor. I am currently using HKStatisticsCollectionQuery, but HKStatisticsCollectionQueryDescriptor seems to do the same, but with very different code setup. Could anyone provide any advice on which method is preferable? Will the older HKStatisticsCollectionQuery become obsolete in the near future? Thanks Tommy

Device Activity Report Per hour Screen-time of apps for Graph
Hi everyone, I need to display a Graph based on Screen-time of apps per hour, from 12Am to 11PM. Am able to get the screen-time data for whole day with each app's total screen-time value. Am kind of confused how can I get the per hour screen-time of apps. I have applied filter of day DeviceActivityFilter( segment: .daily( during: Calendar.current.dateInterval( of: .day, for: .now )! ), users: .all, devices: .init([.iPhone, .iPad]) ) Am also using this data to display apps with their usage just like Apple's Screen_time in settings. I need to display exact same graph just like Apple's screen in phone settings for a Day.

CMAltimeter not delivering relative altitude updates
I want to get the barometric pressure reading from the built-in barometer to display it in my iOS app. When I use CMAltimeter.startRelativeAltitudeUpdates(), my app receives no relative altitude update events, which means I can't view the barometric pressure from the sensor (because that's only contained in CMAltitudeData, not CMAbsoluteAltitudeData. If I use CMAltimeter.startAbsoluteAltitudeUpdates(), I get absolute altitude update events every second or so. NSMotionUsageDescription is set. I have tried the following things, all of which haven't worked: Only calling startRelativeAltitudeUpdates() and not startAbsoluteAltitudeUpdates() Calling CMSensorRecorder.recordAccelerometer(forDuration: 0.1), as suggested in this thread Calling CMMotionActivityManager.queryActivityStarting(from: .now, to: .now, to: .main), as suggested here Physically moving my iPhone up and down about 200 feet using an elevator; I see absolute altitude updates which are in line with what's expected, but still receive no relative altitude update events Calling the same APIs in a watchOS app on an Apple Watch Series 10; I see much less frequent absolute altitude updates, and still no relative altitude updates I know the barometer sensor is working, because when I move my iPhone up and down even a foot or two indoors, I see an immediate change in the absolute altitude reading that I know wouldn't come from GPS. This example code, when run on my iPhone 16 Pro running iOS 18.1.1, prints updates started and then updating absolute every second, but doesn't print anything else. The absolute altitude, accuracy, and authentication status fields update (and the auth status shows 3, indicating .authorized), but the relative altitude and pressure fields remain as --. struct ContentView: View { @State private var relAlt: String = "--" @State private var relPressure: String = "--" @State private var absAlt: String = "--" @State private var precision: String = "--" @State private var accuracy: String = "--" @State private var status: String = "--" var body: some View { VStack { Text("Altitude: \(relAlt) m") .font(.title3) Text("Pressure: \(relPressure) kPa") .font(.title3) Text("Altitude (absolute): \(absAlt) m") .font(.title3) Text("Precision: \(precision) m") .font(.title3) Text("Accuracy: \(accuracy) m") .font(.title3) Text("Auth status: \(status)") .font(.title3) } .padding() .onAppear { let altimeter = CMAltimeter() startRelativeBarometerUpdates(with: altimeter) startAbsoluteBarometerUpdates(with: altimeter) status = CMAltimeter.authorizationStatus().rawValue.formatted() print("updates started") } } private func startRelativeBarometerUpdates(with altimeter: CMAltimeter) { guard CMAltimeter.isRelativeAltitudeAvailable() else { relAlt = "nope" relPressure = "nope" return } altimeter.startRelativeAltitudeUpdates(to: .main) { data, error in if let error = error { print("Error: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } if let data = data { print("updating relative") relAlt = String(format: "%.2f", data.relativeAltitude.doubleValue) relPressure = String(format: "%.2f", data.pressure.doubleValue) } else { print("no data relative") } } } private func startAbsoluteBarometerUpdates(with altimeter: CMAltimeter) { guard CMAltimeter.isAbsoluteAltitudeAvailable() else { absAlt = "nope" print("no absolute available") return } let altimeter = CMAltimeter() altimeter.startAbsoluteAltitudeUpdates(to: .main) { data, error in if let error = error { print("Error: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } if let data = data { print("updating absolute") absAlt = String(format: "%.2f", data.altitude) precision = String(format: "%.2f", data.precision) accuracy = String(format: "%.2f", data.accuracy) } } } } Is this behavior expected? How can I trigger delivery of relative altitude updates to my app?

Workout mode drains battery heavily
I am building a watchOS app with iOS companion app. The watch app needs to track the heart rate during the night or while user is sleeping. And the desired frequency of measurement is 0.2Hz (every 5 seconds) For this I am using the HKWorkout mode with mindAndBody session. While it works fine, One of the main issue is: after about 6-7 hours of usage, the battery on the watch drains between 40% (Series 9) and 100% (series 7, I think) My questions: Are there any other option to track user's heart rate without workout, while the app could be in background? Another side effect of this workout mode is, Even if we choose not to save the workout in HealthKit, the Activity rings gets populated by this mindAndBody session, which makes it when the user is waking up, the bar is already full, This is not desired. Is there any option to specify for ActivityRing skips this? Highly appreciate any help in advance. Cheers - Prakash

Change displayed metric in Fitness app
Good afternoon, I am working on a workout tracking app. So far everything is working as expected. However, I note that when my workout saves and is visible within the Fitness App, the workout duration is displayed rather than the kCal burned. What changes are required to be made in order for this to display the kCal in the list of workouts in Fitness rather than duration? For reference https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2021/10009 this was my reference source for workout functionality.

When does appleExerciseTime update or change?
I've been trying to figure out what the bare minimum is required for HKWorkoutBuilder to create a workout that adds time the appleExerciseTime. I couldn't find the documentation for this. This is my code so far. func createWorkoutSample( expectedActiveEnergyData: [Double], expectedExerciseMinutesData: [Double], calendar: Calendar, startDate: Date ) async throws -> [HKSample] { var testData: [HKSample] = [] let workoutConfiguration = HKWorkoutConfiguration() workoutConfiguration.activityType = .running workoutConfiguration.locationType = .outdoor let results = try await withThrowingTaskGroup(of: HKSample?.self) { group in for (index) in 0..<expectedActiveEnergyData.count { guard let date = calendar.date(byAdding: .day, value: index, to: startDate) else { continue } group.addTask { let builder = HKWorkoutBuilder( healthStore: self.manager.healthStore, configuration: workoutConfiguration, device: .local() ) let endDate = date.addingTimeInterval(expectedExerciseMinutesData[index] * 60) try await builder.beginCollection(at: date) let energyType = HKQuantityType.quantityType( forIdentifier: .activeEnergyBurned )! let energyQuantity = HKQuantity( unit: HKUnit.kilocalorie(), doubleValue: expectedActiveEnergyData[index] ) let energySample = HKQuantitySample( type: energyType, quantity: energyQuantity, start: date, end: endDate ) return try await withCheckedThrowingContinuation { continuation in builder.add([energySample]) { (success, error) in if let error = error { continuation.resume(throwing: error) return } builder.endCollection(withEnd: endDate) { (success, error) in if let error = error { continuation.resume(throwing: error) return } builder.finishWorkout { (workout, error) in if let error = error { continuation.resume(throwing: error) return } continuation.resume(returning: workout) } } } } } } for try await workout in group { if let workout = workout { testData.append(workout) } else { print("Skipping nil workout result.") } } return testData } print("Total samples created: \(results.count)") return results } When I query appleExerciseTime, there are no results. I've looked at the HKWorkoutBuilder documentation, and most of the information expands on adding samples related to the deprecated HKWorkout.

HealthKit returns different values depending on the OS the request is made on
Hi, I've had trouble for a while now with HealthKit giving me different values if I make the request on iOS and WatchOS. I am using the exact same method on both with the same parameters but I get vast differences in the results. The code I am using to call HealthKit on both devices is: let dateRange = HKQuery.predicateForSamples(withStart: Date().removeMonths(numberOfMonths: 1), end: Date().endOfDay()) let predicate: NSPredicate predicate = NSCompoundPredicate(type: .and, subpredicates: [dateRange]) let query = HKStatisticsQuery(quantityType: HKQuantityType(.stepCount), quantitySamplePredicate: predicate, options: .cumulativeSum) { _, result, error in if error != nil { //print("Error fetching step count, or there is no data: \(error.localizedDescription), \(startDate) -> \(endDate)") onComplete(0) return } if let result, let sum = result.sumQuantity() { let stepCount = sum.doubleValue(for: HKUnit.count()) DispatchQueue.main.async { onComplete(Int(stepCount)) } } } healthStore.execute(query) }

Read Workout Effort Scores
Is there documentation on how to read workout effort scores from a HealthKit workout? I'm interested in reading workoutEffortScore and estimatedWorkoutEffortScore. I have not been successful trying to read them using the same method that I do other workout HKQuantityTypes (heartRate, stepCount, etc). I'm using Swift and I do have authorization for those types requested and granted. I have found documentation on setting these values (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/763539) but not reading them. Thank You

Can't properly check if Health Kit is authorized.
In my WatchOS app I've written the following code to check if my app has access to the user's health data: func isHealthKitAuthorized() -> Bool { let typesToRead: [HKObjectType] = [ HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate)!, HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .activeEnergyBurned)!, HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .appleMoveTime)!, HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .appleExerciseTime)!, HKObjectType.workoutType() ] let typesToShare: Set<HKSampleType> = [ HKObjectType.workoutType(), HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .activeEnergyBurned)!, HKObjectType.quantityType(forIdentifier: .heartRate)! ] var isAuthorized = true for type in typesToRead { let status = healthStore.authorizationStatus(for: type) if status != .sharingAuthorized { print("Access denied to: \(type.identifier)") isAuthorized = false } } for type in typesToShare { let status = healthStore.authorizationStatus(for: type) if status != .sharingAuthorized { print("Access denied to: \(type.identifier)") isAuthorized = false } } return isAuthorized } However for the appleMoveTime and appleExerciseTime types their status is returning as 'sharingDenied' (checked by printing the status' rawValue) even though they are authorized on the Watch's settings. This happened both on the simulator and on the Watch itself. Am I doing something wrong?

Can I use an HKQueryAnchor across multiple devices?
Hello, I am currently working on an app that uses HealthKit to sync health data to a backend server that performs analysis on this data. I am keeping track of the synced data with the HKQueryAnchor I receive for each query I make. I want to address an edge case: if a user has multiple devices running the app, would it make sense to store the anchor on my backend? This would ensure that other instances of the app do not sync data that has already been synced from another device. Thank you for your help!
