Steps sync issue

I am new to Whoop and have set up all the settings correctly. I integrated Whoop with Apple Health, but the steps are not syncing in real-time. They only sync at night, and I see the data the next morning.

Hey! If your steps aren’t syncing from WHOOP to Apple Health, here are a few things that might help:

  1. Double-check permissions:
    Open the Health app on your iPhone, tap your profile pic in the top right > Apps > WHOOP. Make sure Steps are turned on so WHOOP can write that data.

  2. Make sure everything’s up to date:
    Update both the WHOOP app and the Apple Health app to the latest versions.

  3. Reconnect the integration:
    In the WHOOP app, head to More > App Settings > Integrations > Apple Health.
    Tap Connect (or disconnect and reconnect if it’s already linked). When prompted, allow all permissions.

  4. Trigger a sync:
    Open the WHOOP app and refresh your data. Step info typically updates every ~10 minutes.

  5. Restart your phone:
    Sometimes a quick reboot can solve sync issues. After restarting, reopen both WHOOP and Apple Health.

  6. Check background app refresh:
    Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and make sure it’s turned on for both apps.

  7. Last resort: reinstall the WHOOP app:
    If nothing else works, uninstall and reinstall WHOOP, then reconnect Apple Health and re-enable permissions.

@SureshKing We currently upload to Apple Health Kit in batch at end of day, but are always considering ways to make it more real-time.

My recommendation is to look at Steps in your WHOOP app! You can see it on the “My Dashboard” section on the “Home” tab. That is always updated in live time.

Thank you Durkin! I hope a new update will fix it up soon. And also the steps count are way more estimated(I also wear Apple Watch). I hope it will be fixed too.
