> Does the health app upload to cloud services? If so, can it be turned off?
It does by default, but you can disable it. I'm actually working on making those options more user friendly :).
> Is the Bluetooth synchronization protocol documented to support open-source app implementations?
Not officially, but we've published open source implementations of at least part of the protocol (see libpebble). Several unofficial implementations followed (e.g. a Blackberry app, among others).

- chinathrow 10y agoHealth data per default uploaded, are you honestly nuts?
- TeMPOraL 10y agoThey're not nuts. It's the standard default everywhere. Remind me, who else does allow to disable that upload?
- chinathrow 10y agoEven worse if everyone does it. Sometimes I wish that some wearable companies get slapped in EU courts for violating the now-defunct safe harbour with personal health data.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoI wish that too, but in the meantime, if everyone is doing something wrong, then let's give some praise to those who are doing it less wrong - this way we can create an incentive for others to follow.
