Syncing your personal activity tracker to the Second Nature app

A guide to using your own activity tracker, such as a FitBit or Garmin Watch, with the Second Nature programme

Written by Ana

While the Second Nature app can't sync data directly from your personal activity tracker, you can still sync your data by first syncing it with Apple Health or Health Connect, depending on whether you have an iOS or Android device.

Fitbit users: Fitbit data can now sync directly to Apple Health through the Google Health app (previously the Fitbit app), so you no longer need a third-party app. See Syncing Fitbit data with Second Nature via Apple Health for iPhone, or How to Sync Google Health (Fitbit) to Health Connect for Android.

Note: Some other trackers may still need a third-party app, such as Sync Solver or Power Sync, to share data with Apple Health.

Manual Step Entry

If you prefer, you can also enter your steps manually into the app. Here's how:

  1. Press the Track icon from the bottom toolbar in the app

  2. Press the Steps heading

  3. Press Add steps manually

  4. Enter the number of steps

  5. Tap on the blue date and use the wheels at the bottom of the screen to select the correct date, then press Confirm

  6. Press Add
