I just crossed over to iPhone from Android, and I like the Apple Health App.  For example, the Fitbit scale is.. what it is... and my Arboleaf is light years ahead, but it does not sync well with the Fitbit App.  All my data syncs perfectly with Apple health. 

 

When I want to wear a nice watch, I use a low profile tracker on my off hand (Alta HR).  This works well with the Fitbit Sense because the steps are integrated seemlessly between the two.  Anyone try this with Apple Watch and Alta HR.. while using the Apple health or Fitbit  App to get a consistent view of step/ activity while using two platforms?

 

If not, any suggestion for low profile tools do you use with Apple Watch to track steps? I was hoping I could do it with my Oura ring, but sadly steps do not integrate with Apple Health... certainly not Fitbit.

 

Any advice appreciated. I like the flexibility of Apple Health to control what device I use for various health inputs.

Apple does not allow integration with Fitbit and probably never will. They want you to buy the Apple Watch.

With the FitbittoAppleHealth App i get all of my Fitbit data into Apple Health App.  I now prefer the Apple Health App over Fitbit App because I get to choose the source of my Health Metrics. 

 

Right now its:  FitBit App for Food, Steps, Workout tracking, Arboleaf for Weight, Oura Ring for Sleep metrics.  It is more customizeable than Fitbit, which did not integrate my scale.. unfortunately I bought Fitbit's scale to get more consistent integration, but it has inferior features -- hence my move to Apple. 

 

If Oura Ring step data could be integrated into Apple health then I would shift completely.

Since it doesn't I am looking to use both Apple Watch and Alta HR and curious if anyone has experience doing this.  Thanks in advance!
