If you use a Garmin device, you can sync your step data with the Second Nature app by first connecting Garmin Connect to Apple Health, and then allowing Second Nature to read that data from Apple Health.
Step 1: Connect Garmin Connect to Apple Health
Open the Garmin Connect app on your iPhone
Tap More (or your profile picture, depending on your app version)
Go to Settings > Connected Apps or Health > Apple Health
Tap Apple Health
Select Connect if prompted
Enable the data you'd like Garmin to share with Apple Health:

Step 2: Check Apple Health permissions
Open the Health app on your iPhone
Tap your profile picture in the top-right corner
Tap Apps
Select Garmin Connect
Check that the relevant permissions are enabled
Step 3: Connect Apple Health to Second Nature
Open the Second Nature app
Click the profile icon in the top right of the Today page
Go to Settings
Select Connect Apple Health
Tap Connect to Apple Health
Once connected, any eligible data shared from Garmin into Apple Health can then be read by Second Nature.
Troubleshooting
My Garmin data isn't appearing in Second Nature
Please check the following:
Garmin Connect is connected to Apple Health
Garmin Connect has permission to write the relevant data to Apple Health
Apple Health contains recent activity data
Second Nature has permission to read data from Apple Health
You've opened both the Garmin Connect and Apple Health apps recently to allow them to sync
My steps aren't syncing
If your steps aren't appearing:
Open Apple Health and check whether step data is visible there
If steps aren't showing in Apple Health, the issue is likely between Garmin Connect and Apple Health
If steps are visible in Apple Health but not in Second Nature, check that Second Nature has permission to read Steps from Apple Health
The wrong data is syncing to Second Nature
If the incorrect data is appearing, check that the correct source is being prioritised in Apple Health:
Open Apple Health
Select 'Show All Health Data'
Select 'Steps'
Scroll down and select 'Data Sources & Access'
Select 'Edit' in top right corner
See if your Garmin watch appears there and tap and hold the three horizontal lines to drag to the top of your list
If you've checked all of the above and your data still isn't syncing, please contact the Customer Support team at support@secondnature.io with details of your device, iOS version, and which data isn't syncing so we can investigate further.
