Connect Health Connect
On Android, bring your weight, body fat, and active energy in from Health Connect.
Health Connect is where Android apps share health data. Scale apps and Samsung Health save your weigh-ins there, and Fit Shapes reads them.
- Open Account from your avatar at the top right of Today.
- Tap Connected apps, under Data & integrations.
- On the Health Connect card, tap Connect.
- Turn on the data you want to share, then tap Allow.
- On the next screen, tap Allow to share past data too.
If the card says Get Health Connect, tap it to install or update Health Connect from the Play Store, then come back.
What Fit Shapes reads
- Weight
- Body fat
- Active energy
Fit Shapes reads this data only. It does not write anything to Health Connect.
Past data
Without past data, Health Connect lets Fit Shapes read only the 30 days before you connected. With it, Fit Shapes reads your older weigh-ins too, so your trend and your check-ins start from your real history. To change it later, open Settings → Health Connect → App permissions → Fit Shapes.
Sync or disconnect
On the same screen, tap Sync now to get the latest data, or Disconnect to stop. If the card shows Reconnect, tap it and allow access again. If the card shows Open Health Connect, Android no longer shows the permission prompt: tap it, turn on access for Fit Shapes, and come back.
Weigh-ins do not show up
If Fit Shapes is connected but no weigh-ins arrive, check that they reach Health Connect first. Open Settings → Health Connect → Data and access. If your weight is not there, Fit Shapes has nothing to read yet.
- Set a screen lock. Health Connect does not save data on a phone without a PIN, pattern, or password. Open Settings → Lock screen → Screen lock type.
- On Samsung Health, give consent. Open Samsung Health, tap ⋮ → Settings, and under Privacy turn on Consent to the processing of health and wellness data.
- Open the scale’s app. Some apps save to Health Connect only when they are open.
Samsung Health does not send weigh-ins you entered before it could share. Weigh-ins you add after that arrive in a few minutes.
To get your weight in without typing it, use a smart scale whose app saves to Health Connect.
