Via Apple Health or Health Connect
Strava, where competition gets real.
Turn on sharing in Strava to Apple Health on iPhone or Health Connect on Android, and your workouts compete against friends on any device, not only other Strava users.
Share from Strava.
Strava can share your workouts to Apple Health or Health Connect. MoveTogether reads them there. You never sign in to Strava inside MoveTogether.
Exact taps for each app are on the data sources guide. Data sources guide
On Android (Health Connect)
- In the Strava app, turn on sharing to Health Connect.
- Open MoveTogether and allow Health Connect access.
Anything that posts to Strava.
Strava is a platform, not a device. Runs, rides, and swims from any watch, bike computer, or phone that post to Strava can come through.
What we read from Strava.
MoveTogether scores the same activity for every device. Here’s what comes through from Strava.
| Metric | Supported | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Steps | No | Strava shares workouts, not all-day steps. |
| Active calories | Yes | From your workouts. |
| Exercise minutes | Yes | From your workouts. |
| Workouts | Yes |
If Strava is your tracker, Head to Head competitions on steps will not see steps from it. A device that records all-day activity will.
Sync timing
When your app syncs
New activity reaches MoveTogether once Strava shares it to Apple Health or Health Connect and MoveTogether syncs. On iPhone, Sync activity in the + menu pulls it in right away.
Scoring with Strava.
Every scoring method is fair here, because every device sends its data the same way. Two that suit it:
Strava questions, briefly answered.
Do my routes and posts show up in MoveTogether?
No. Only the workout numbers that score come through. Routes and posts stay on Strava.
My watch already posts to Strava. Which should be my tracker?
Usually the watch, if it also shares to Apple Health or Health Connect, since it brings all-day steps. Pick Strava if your workouts only live there.
Do I need Strava subscription features?
No. Sharing workouts works without a subscription.
Beyond kudos.
Strava's where you log it. MoveTogether's where you race it.
