  > Last I looked, Apple Health data doesn't leave the phone - there's no "cloud" aspect. Apple Health data is stored in the cloud, why would you think otherwise? They don't store all of it but they do store some. > They could of course change that, or sneakily exfil it. The first hasn't happened yet It already happened, Apple Health data was always stored in the cloud.

    Sorta. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT209519 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT209519 > If you're using iOS 12 or later and have turned on two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, health records are encrypted using end-to-end encryption through iCloud. This means only you can access this information, and only on devices where you’re signed in to iCloud. No one else, not even Apple, can access end-to-end encrypted information.

    > why would you think otherwise? Because it wasn't the case in the past and I don't use Apple Health or backup to other people's machines, so I don't care enough to stay up to date on the particulars. Prior to IOS 9 it did not store health data in the "cloud", except as an encrypted blob in a backup. https://www.macobserver.com/tips/quick-tip/quick-tip-icloud-can-now-backup-and-restore-health-data/ https://www.macobserver.com/tips/quick-tip/quick-tip-icloud-...
