Google Health, initially known as the Fitbit app, has been collecting fitness, sleep, and wellness data from wearable devices like Fitbit trackers and the Pixel Watch.

According to Reddit users, certain data types like HRV are not transferable during this sync process. To enable this two-way sync, users need to update the Google Health app to version 5.05 from the App Store, then navigate to Connections, choose Apps and services, and add Apple Health.

The update also introduces Smart Health Links, enabling users to securely share medical records with providers or family members.
