Garmin, Polar, and Strava existed before Apple Health/Watch were released. They had to have a solution in a non-Apple world, and I doubt they'd abandon existing users once Apple appeared (and stuck around).
Oura's first Ring was released the same year as the Watch, so I don't think that Oura was given early access.
- stouset 2y agoI’m not asking them to abandon anything. Apple Health has been around over ten years. Oura could have figured out in the intervening time how to read heart rate data from Health. All I’m asking for Strava, Garmin, and the rest is to just use Apple Health to import data from other sources and assume that it is the source of truth for externally-generated data rather than requiring direct app-to-app integration or simply ignoring anything their devices didn’t emit.
- robterrell 2y agoWhat are you not getting imported? Strava does import activities from Apple Health and it's treated no differently than an activity recorded in the app. (Feel free to email me with details, my first name at strava dot com).
