Kora

An iOS app that syncs data from compatible Garmin watches directly to Apple Health over Bluetooth.

From watch to Apple Health

Kora connects to the watch over Bluetooth, decodes supported FIT records, and writes supported samples to Apple Health. This gives me a direct path for data such as workouts, sleep stages and heart rate. Available metrics depend on the watch.

Sync needs to preserve the original timestamps and handle repeated imports without writing the same samples twice. That matters when a reconnect or a history import brings the same activity or overnight data back through the app.

On-device sync

The sync path runs on the iPhone. Kora needs Bluetooth and Apple Health permissions and does not require a Kora account or cloud service for the transfer.
