I’d add I wish more (all) symptoms that are available in HealthKit would sync too.

I would love exercise, stand and move. - steps and workout type / duration would be great too.

Water intake syncing would be especially helpful for people who use smart water bottles or a dedicated tracker.

Came here and registered for this! Would love it to tap into more Apple Health data such as Activity + Water Consumption.

It would be great to import mindful minutes, workouts and menstruation

Sync for blood glucose and pulse ox would be nice

nutrition sync would be amazing

+1 For Water Intake especially

+100 for water!

Yes pleeease! I would also love for Bearable to be able to read blood oxygen data from apple health/ the Apple Watch S7

I’d like Bearable to pull nutrition/food data from Apple Health. That would be a workaround for MyFitnessPal users.

I would love to be able to see how nutrition macros effect mood/energy/symptoms

Medication and water would be the main ones for me as being on crutches I don’t always have my phone on me so find them much easier to track through my Apple Watch/apple health app though it would be useful to have them on bearable so I could see patterns. Nutrition would also be useful

Yes syncing with other fitness apps e.g. garmin

I’m thinking of this in reverse. Would love to see Bearable data go INTO Apple health. The Apple interface for logging data is cumbersome but would love to see my Bearable data in the Apple app.

Same but for Google Fit/Samsung Health

Apple Health: sync “Active Energy” and “Exercise Minutes”. These are the rings in Apple Fitness.

Sync for HRV should the night HRV or first measure in the morning. This is what sleep / exercise readiness apps like Athlytic use. Check their FAQ.

Yes to sync water!

Apple Watch compatibility

Yes please! Would love for it to grab the day it is in the menstruation cycle automatically since it heavily affects mood, sleep, pain tolerance, etc.

Nutrition data from Google fit and apple health would be a wonder, as well as water intake, having to double up at the mo

Yeah! And the new “State of Mind” feature on Apple health as well

‼️if there was any possible way to include constant glucose tracking, and the range in which you wanted your glucose to be, that would be so helpful for us diabetic folk. those parameters can be found easily on on dexcom g7 app, in settings, no device required.‼️

It would be great for nutriontal information to be able to be synced from google or Samsung

Especially the medications. I track my meds in Apple health and would like to see the insights from bearable when I start/change a med/dosage, but I’m not tracking the same thing in two apps. And it takes up a lot more space as a list in bearable than it does in Apple health.

Yes! I came here specifically to suggest integration with HidrateSpark for easier water tracking.

We had a similar recommendation from another member of the community:

“Pull in HealthKit Deep Sleep, REM, etc data.

It would be great to pull in the time asleep according to sleep zone, etc deep sleep.

Then we can measure what factors improve or reduce our deep sleep.”

We had a similar suggestion submitted by another member of the community:

“Allow Sync with all Apple Health Data.”

Really want it too import when I take what medications from the health app.

Yes, syncing all Apple heath data would be wonderful — especially medication. I just downloaded the app and was disappointed to see that the medication category doesn’t sync. I already track all my meds in apple health and would love to see that integrated.

Being able to have my medications synced from Apple Health is crucial! I’m currently trying to assess how my meds might be impacting symptoms and use my Apple Watch to quickly enter them into Apple health when I take them. Having to enter them manually again into Bearable makes the process a lot less convenient.

I’m tracking my water intake with a smart bottle and having it synced through Apple Health would really help.

🙌🏼 Yes!👍🏼

Yes, 💯 % I’m trying to figure out how the timing of my 4/day medications affects everything–sleep, mood, energy, activity level, you name it!

I’ve wound up hacking the symptom periods, using the two in the middle as stand-ins. (6am=Before meds, noon=After meds. Come onboard). But wow is that clunky!

Another vote for menstruation please 🙏

+1 for water intake and medication sync from Apple health 😀

Water intake from Apple health

Me too!

Another user has also requested the same:

“Apple Health Sync”

“Brilliant sync with the heart rate and steps but would be really good if it synced medications, mindfulness minutes, activities and body temperature.”

Another user as also requested a specific apple health sync:

“Sync “time in sunlight” from Apple Watch”

“Apple Watch collects data on time spent in sunlight. I’d like to sync this data to Bearable”

I use Apple Health, Google Fit, Samsung Health, Fitbit, etc., and it would be great if Bearable read and wrote all the data to and from them. It would also be great if it integrated with Apple Watch, Samsung Watch, Pixel Watch, Fitbit, etc.

My sleep data doesn’t currently sync from Google Fit to Bearable

Medication, water, and nutrition from Apple Health are the most important missing pieces of data for me.

Vital to include blood sugar from Apple Health, or Freestyle Libre, or Gluroo

Being able to sync: - menstruation calendar from Flo, Maya. Right now I have added “Follicular phase” “Luteal phase”, “Ovulation”,” Menstraution” in the Reproductive health sections. I hope this would generate predictions and advice about foods, reminder to take that double dose of anti-depressant in the future for pms during certain days of Luteal phase and good mood activities in my Bearable app in the future.

Most important: ability to sync sleep: sleep quality and sleep/wakeup times to correlate with my In bed-times added in the Bearable app.

Would be good, as other have said, to sync meditation and workouts with Bearable more. Could be a notification push in future ” You felt better when you raised your pulse to XX for YY long time during workout X times last week”.

Also food: I have tried to track diet in weight-loss apps. Usually it ends up I have to track both in the smart-watch app and in the weightloss-app. And now in Bearable. Your tracking is the easiest since it doesn’t involve calories and specific products but its still a third app to use for this.. and for me its vital information. If not calories tracking then importing data of the food and identify and color code in categories such as marking foods as veggies,protein from animal, processed vegetarian protein, natural veggie protein (beans), fast carbohydrates, salty, unsaturated/saturated/trans- fat, simple/complex carbohydrates.. so you don’t need to get focused on Calories, but can get a sense of health and dietary balance. Perhaps a summary of calories would do, but many vegans for example Loose weight despite higher than normal calorie intake. Women also need More calories during different periods of their cycle, so recommending a different amount of calories all through the cycle or atleast .. not reminding to reach the same set of calories each day.. that can effect the mood and hormon levels. Eating different foods and “checking the boxes” of remembering to eat fish/nuts during Follicular phase can have an effect on PMS later in luteal and menstruation phase. It would be really cool if Bearable app users compare if eating according to the cycle has no/minimal/big effects.

I also want to say: I only want information coming into Bearable, not out. Since it’s an app people are supposed to use to track their medicine and diagnosis symptoms it should still be privately held away from smartwatches or any background checks for employment that sell data to marketing companies. I only want to be able to use it for my own knowledge and show and explain to a friend, doctor or medical professional.

No. 1 syncing request for me = medications from Apple Health.

ALSO A SYNC FROM GARMIN please! Would be great to sync straight from my Garmin and not have to go via Apple Health (specifically- Garmin measures HRV as “stress” and Apple Health doesn’t recognise that it’s HRV so I have to add it manually right now)

I log my meds in Apple Health, and it feels cumbersome to have to re-enter them in Bearable every day, just so I can see the med changes affect symptoms. Instead, I make a new factor each time the Rx changes. After just one year, that work around is getting clunky.

And yes! To importing Apple sleep stages, which are more affected by my meds than sleep hours. I’ve been coding the Sleep quality in Bearable based on the stages in Apple Health, but it’s exactly the sort of thing a computer does best. For example:

If 2+ REM stages for >1 hour and deep >1 hour, Quality=good.

If above AND sleep hours >6, Quality=great

These are the parameters that suit my needs, but it’d be most useful to everyone if the limits could be adjusted by the user.

And so forth. 🤓

Agreed! I use MyNetDiary and Waterllama for Water Intake Tracking, and I wish those could sync with Bearable. I was recently told I have IBS, and while I’m pretty I know what causes it, it would be nice to know.

Also, the routine features get exhausting to plot out after a while, so Health syncing for exercise could be great.

Adding a wish to sync nutrition from Apple health. I use LoseIt to track my macros, overall calories, sodium, and sugar. Most of that information syncsto apple health. Being able to use the information from apple health would be so incredibly informative while navigating our various health and mental health journeys 👍🏻🧡

+1 for Water and Nutrition (even just calories)

All sleep data from Google fit, at least fel asleep and woken up

HRV, SDNN from Welltory

All factors available on Apple Health should be able to be synced in both directions with those matching factors in Bearable: allow Apple Health to read and write Bearable data, allow Bearable to read and write Apple Health data.

Ideally, each factor can be toggled on or off for the sake of individual preferences regarding symptom tracking or privacy. I find it wild how there are all these countless apps out there that can sync with Apple Health, yet as users we are expected to open each and every one to log things, at times repeating the process due to limited sync offerings. Many health tracking apps come with devices as well to pair that can also write data to Apple Health. Bearable is SO comprehensive but this becomes a downfall when syncing with more streamlined limited-factor apps via Apple Health data isn’t available.

I don’t understand how it’s been this many years yet the factors to read and write between Apple Health haven’t increased. I pay for premium but I imagine that many users like me end up eventually leaving the app due to how getting comprehensive insights requires manual input of several factors already automatically or more easily tracked by other apps, taking up a lot of extra time and frustrating users and how after spending all that time logging factors throughout the day and at the end of the day on Bearable, none of that information gets put into Apple Health.

Bearable is not a replacement for Apple Health, period tracking apps, fitness tracking apps, etc. It is a symptom tracking app intended to find correlations and triggers. So please allow back and forth writing of more data so that we can use the app the way it is intended more efficiently.

Syncing medication data would be awesome! Including time and time taken, etc.
