How to sync Strava data from my watch?

Hi all, I am a newbie to android wear.
Got a Huawei Watch 2 from China, the Bluetooth version.
I want to use it mainly for tracking my runs.
Most runners use Strava and they do have a version for Android watch as well. I have it installed.
But the problem now I face is, where does the recorded data go?
the whole point of getting this watch is that I don't have to carry my phone with me when I run anymore.
I have tried it a few times. I would start the Strava app on my phone, wait for it to finds GPS signal and press start. then I went for my run. when I was finished I pressed the stop button and I could see a summary of this workout.
Then when I got back to my phone and switched Bluetooth on and connected it to my watch. Data seems to have been synced but I could only see this workout in Huawei Health app, not in Strava. it's really frustrating. Could anyone let me know what I am doing wrong?

I'm not sure how to get the Strava app working, but I've used a different app called Ghostracer that records gps and HR during workout and syncs with several other online services like Strava, Smashrun, and Runkeeper all at once. I like it because it's simple and it also allows you to customize the display while you're working out (for both running and cycling)

I have Strava app on my watch and on my phone. When you go out for your run, wait for the GPS signal to turn white then off you go. Once you are back in range of your phone, it will automatically sync to the Strava app on your phone. To double check this, swipe down on your watch and flick to the left until you see the sync option. It will let you know if any sessions are left pending.
Hope this helps.

Yes, It is very sad that you can not export the training data from huawei training. I have now set up a training program on huawei health for 5000 m running and it works fine. I use endomondo for my training data, so I have to manually write in my running routes in endomondo after each training. When I am running I also play music on the watch via google music on the speaker on the watch. Works pretty fine and I can still hear the surround sound because I do not wear headphones...

Same problem here... I wanted to follow a huawei health training plan, but I also wanted my runs to upload to strava.. The solution I found is very simple: I use both apps to track my runs.. I start the tracking in strava (or ghostracer) and then I switch to the default app and start the tracking for my traning plan. I think you can do the same with endomondo. If you can't, just have some other app to auto-transfer the exercises from strava to endomondo (syncmytracks or tapiriik).

Yeah, that is a clever solution. Will the battery drain be much more if you run 2 apps att the same time to track your runs?
Yesterday I tried strava and "syncmytracks" to endomondo. Works fine. The endomondo app is not yet optimsed for android 2.0. A nice thing with the strava app is that the push button on the watch works to start and stop a run as it works in the huawei heath app.
Huawei heath app can export to google fit but I am not sure if it's only fitness data and not activites as run you track with the huawei heath app. I tried to record a run on the huwei and the used the app "synkmytracks" to synk google fit with endomodo but it doesnt seam to work.

Here is a simple solution:

I did everything according to the instructions, but when I register with Huawei for health and choose the country of Singapore, I receive information about a redirection to my country

Huawei Health doesn't sync workouts after update

After my Huawei Health app on the phone was updated, new workouts made in the huawei training app on the watch doesn't sync with the app in the phone. Old workouts are gone. I have also tried to sign in and out. It doesn't really matter so much because I use other apps for training because of the lack of exporting training data. I even have a Huawei phone.
Though my steps still syncs with google fit.

Do you also have the Huawei Wear app installed as well? Things get really screwy if you don't have both apps installed.

Yes, I also have Huawei Wear app.

I am about to test this now.
Just installed new version, currently on 8.0.0.309
Old training data still there, will check if new workouts register this evening.

Ok. Nice! I also have 8.0.0.309. I will change phone in a month (from Huawei Mate 8 to Mate 10 pro) and I guess I have do a reset on my watch for it to work with new phone. Maybe everything works then

Google Fit

Has anyone noticed if their Huawei Health has stopped linking with GF and supplying data even though it's connected
Not sure if due to recent changes in GF or HH.

i've never been able to view heart rate data on GF.

I have previously but with the recent updates to Huawei Health and Google Fit no data is linked anymore - to get data into GF I now have to use Fit for activity tracking.

I have the same problem. Just a couple of weeks ago, Huawei Health was able to share my steps data with Google Fit. Then Google Fit updated and it's no longer getting that data. From what I can see on Google Play, HH hasn't been updated since Aug 4, 2018. So, looks like Google changed something that Huawei will have to account for.
Until then, I'm going to try reverting Google fit using APK Mirror.

Huawei won't do anything - their stance is that we contact google ourselves
I can inform you that you can use both applications when connecting the watch, although Huawei Health is recommended as it offers more features.
As for the Google Fit application, since it extracts information from our application (and not vice-versa), you will need to find out from Google if they fully support the Huawei Health or the Huawei Watch in order for their app to work properly.

i just noticed that after the recent Google Fit update, I had to open the app on my watch. in doing so, i went through a series of prompts, and eventually enabled the heart rate monitor. now, Google Fit on my phone shows my heart rate data (but only since enabling it on the phone). i know that this does not appear to sync with HH, but it does give the data you could be seeking.
hope this helps.

I get the heart rate through Google Fit as well, but only through the GF side previously you also got it from Huawei Health, my issue is that the other activity data in Huawei Health is no longer synced to GF and instead to get activities showing properly you have to use the GF activity and not HH one

I presume you are referring to the apps on your phone, not just the data in the watch?
so maybe you mean that you use the HH app in the watch to track your activity, and GF is not showing that?
from my experience, GF is tracking my activity regardless of what app I use to track (I use Map My Run). so I don't think it is a sync issue with HH to GF, but more of GF syncing from your watch to your phone. in my opinion, the two apps are redundant, so I'll probably wind up deleting Huawei's Health and Wear apps from my phone.

Both, HH has to store its data in your phone app before it gets synced to GF - this no longer happens after the update. GF will track my activity but not as it should (ie if I started an activity via HH this would end up being logged in GF stating it came from HH, but this no longer happens, you just get basic tracking. If I start the activity using GF then this gets transferred to GF properly so is in my app on phone and on webpage.
Previously I only needed to do everything through HH and this would sync across to GF, but this is no longer the case.
I used to use MapMyWalk but that doesn't use the GPS on watch and they had that major data breach, so wary about using Under Armour products now

I noticed today my data wasn't synched properly for some time, looks like since GF introduced this new system.
Fixed it by going into HH and disconnected from GF then reconnected.

I'm sorry for the late reply. I don't think it fixed the problem.
I uninstalled Huawei Health over a year ago and haven't used it, or the watch, since. I can't remember what things I tried, but, I'm guessing nothing worked and I stopped using it.

Using Google account on connected Wear OS Watch

I have 2 watches, on Huawei GT using its own OS and a Tic watch Pro that uses Google Wear OS. I cannot use the hacked Google Mobile Services account on my watch. I can sideload apps to it and they work fine but when I try to use the watches Play store, it tries to access it from the Mate 30 pro but fails to copy it to the watch. I have tried resetting both watch and phone, reinstalling the GMS hack etc but it just will not copy my Google account over from the phone.
Has anyone got the same problem or managed to copy a Google account to a Wear OS watch while using the GMS hack?
Any assistance appreciated. At least I have my greeny watch GT from buying my mate 20 pro last year.

I have also trouble with my Fossil 4th gen, I am simply unable to connect my Fossil watch to my Mate 30 pro, the phone and watch simply don't see each other. I used Huawei phone clone and cloned my Mate 20 pro to the 30 pro. Uninstalled google wear OS on the phone and reinstalled it but no help.
I have to see if I can connect the watch to my Mate 10...dunno if it's the watch as Bluetooth is working fine otherwise on the Mate 30 pro.

I went backwards too to check, mate 20 pro fine, 30 no dice.

I did a full reset on the watch and are now connected to the mate 30 pro. Not very happy with the Fossil...slow and unstable software. Shame I don't like to much the Huawei watch...
I have google play on my Mate 30 pro so it is possible with the "hacked" GMS.

My Tic watch connects ok, I just can't copy my Google account to it from the mate 30, just keeps failing.

My Huawei Watch 2 is working perfectly with Google services etc. Had a P30 Pro before this phone, and the process was exactly the same. Not sure how I could help at all. But it is working fine in my end here.

This is a bad part of this Mate 30 pro i hope someone fix it soon too. I wanna use my google watch wear OS

Maybe you have not read it properly, after a reset of my Fossil watch which is running google wear OS my watch is properly connected to my Mate 30 pro so what do you want to have fixed on the mate 30?

Have you tried to use playstore on your watch? It needs your Google account and tries to add this via the wear app and fails.

Yes, I installed another watch face from playstore, could only install this directly via playstore on my watch. I am also connected via Wi-Fi (the watch) so in how far is my watch using the Mate 30 pro in this process? Anyway, not an expert but it all works now, I get all the messages from my phone on my watch etc.

Have you tried using Google pay? Does it work somehow?

Were you able to sync the Google account with your Wear OS watch ?

No. Still not been able to. I had an Huawei GT watch from the mate 20 offer last year and all though it does not do what I want, it is usable with the 30. If I get araround it, I will post it here.

Ey, i have the same problem when i try to copy my google account to my ticwatch pro.
Any solution?
Thx!!

Hey guys,
i'm looking at a P40 but no one in that forum seems to have tried a Wear OS watch with sideloaded (I assume that's how you got GMS and Wear on to the phone?) apps. I'm a bit confused with the answers above as well, not entirely clear to me. Can i just ask, has anyone got their Wear OS (mines a Suunto 7) watch to work perfectly with their Mate P30? I'm not interested in GPay.
Thanks!!

Incompatible device got the app form previous phone
I just got my Mate 30 PRO, I transferred via phone clone the app but I'm getting "incompatible device"

Hello,
I have the p40 pro with google services installed and wear os.
I have the Ticwatch PRO LTE and the watch has it paired with the phone via bluetooth and everything works.
The only problem is that the google apps on the watch do not work because copying the google account to the watch through the app wear gives you an error.
Therefore gpay, play store and google fit do not work.
¿Has anyone managed to copy the google account to the watch?
Thanks!!!

Thank you for your reply!
I live in a region where GPay isn't used and I'm so not interested in Fit on my watch, i use the phone GUI for that although, i guess this means background heart rate measuring doesn't work.
Play store could be an issue as I need to use Endomondo.
Anyway, I'll follow the guide I have and update you later.
I am currently running through the setup process right now for my phone and then i'll follow one of the many guides for installing GMS and let you know if I can copy the account across.

Question Google Fit sync with Samsung Health (mod)?

With seeing all the development here that de-Samsungize the Watch 4 (like the Samsung Health App mod for BP and ECG sensor for anyone), I became really confident on picking up one soon.
If I understand correctly, the modded samsung health apps will allow me to use every sensor of the watch with my Pixel, without any limitations. But can it sync the data to Google Fit, or is Google Fit supported by the watch as well? I could live without BP sync, but I would like to have my health data synced to Google Fit, just as it is now.

Not everything can sync yet according to Dante (the dev making the modded health apps) but he's working on it. With that said, the sync he's referring to I believe is with Samsung health, but for syncing with Google fit I found a solution to that years ago with an app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.appyhapps.healthsync

I know not everything is syncing at the moment, and I think it's one of the greatest things that after many years of not needing mods & hacks to use my device the way I want to, when the need arose, I could find a solution here in mere minutes. It's sad that Samsung is scamming users into their ecosystem, but that's probably the price we have to pay to get a Wear OS 3 watch this year.
The app you linked looks to do exactly what I was looking for, I'll still have to use the modded Samsung Health, but at least the data can be stored in my GFit profile easily. This is what I was looking for, apart from using Google Pay, which is also confirmed.

You don't actually need modded Samsung Health but the modded Samsung Health Monitor. Two different apps for some reason. The latter is only for BP and ECG. The former is where all the other health data goes.
I've set up the sync with that same app from Samsung Health to Google Fit and it works wonderfully. Even the GPS tracking data is included when it syncs runs.

So basically there is a Samsung Health Monitor (SHM), that is only used to gather sensor data and pass it to Samsung Health, so it's basically just an intermittent interface provided as a separate app?
And Google Fit will get the data from Samsung Health, which gets it from the (modded) Samsung Health Monitor?

Not exactly. SHM is only for blood pressure and ECG. The rest (steps, hr, runs, etc.) is handled directly by Samsung Health.
Regular SHM would share the blood pressure measurements to Samsung Health but modded version doesn't.

So let me see if I got this straight: the modded SHM, which I need for both the phone and the watch, is only for BP and ECG, and that data won't sync (as of yet) with SH on my phone. All the other data will correctly sync with SH because they come from a non modded app.
The app health sync can sync data from SH to google fit.
Is that correct?
