  5. Allow the health data you want to share.

Using an iPhone

Samsung Health does not sync with Apple Health, so there is no reliable way to connect a Samsung Galaxy Watch to OSX on iPhone.

To track steps with OSX on iPhone, use a wearable that supports Apple Health, such as Apple Watch or Fitbit with Power Sync.

Still not working?

  • Make sure your watch is syncing with Samsung Health

  • Check Samsung Health permissions in Health Connect

  • Make sure OSX is connected to Health Connect

  • Restart your phone and try again
