Google and Samsung team together to make it easier to sync fitness data across apps

When a user opts-in, developers can store their health data in an encrypted hub on the user’s device. According to Google, users will have complete choice over what data they share and with which apps they share it. If more than one app collects the same type of data, such as steps taken, users can pick which app receives that data. Over 50 data types are supported by Health Connect, including exercise, body measurement, cycle tracking, diet, sleep, and vitals.
