How to Connect Peloton to Apple Health
Peloton has a native Apple Health integration on iPhone. Once linked inside the Peloton app, completed Peloton workouts can appear in Apple Health, help close your Activity rings, and upload in bulk the next time you open Peloton if you finished classes on your Bike, Tread, Guide, Row, or another device earlier.
Quick Comparison
| Method | Data Synced | Sync Speed | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|

| Bulk Catch-Up | Pending workouts completed on Peloton hardware or another Peloton device before you reopened the iPhone app | All at once on next app open | Easy |
| Duplicate Cleanup | Not a sync method; used only when Strava and Peloton both wrote the same workout to Apple Health | Manual cleanup | Moderate |
Data That Transfers
How to Connect (Step-by-Step)
Peloton's native Apple Health integration works from the iOS app. It can send Peloton workouts and supported workout metrics into Apple Health, help close Activity rings, and sync pending workouts in bulk the next time the Peloton app opens. The main operational limitation is that syncing only occurs while the Peloton app is open on iPhone.
Open the Peloton app on your iPhone
Update the app first if needed, then launch Peloton on your iOS device.
Find the Health App settings
Go to More, then look under Account for the Health App option.
Connect Apple Health

Workarounds & Tips
- ๐กIf you finish classes mostly on Peloton hardware, make a habit of opening the Peloton iPhone app afterward so any pending workouts upload to Apple Health in one batch.
- ๐กIf you also sync Strava into Apple Health, keep one source of truth for the same workout to avoid duplicate entries in Health.
- ๐กIf you use Apple Watch with Peloton, end the workout from the Peloton hardware or app rather than the watch so the final session data closes out cleanly.

Troubleshooting
โ ๏ธ My Peloton workout is missing from Apple Health
Open the Peloton app on your iPhone after the workout and verify the Apple Health connection is still enabled under the Health App settings. Classes completed on hardware can remain pending until the iPhone app opens again.
โ ๏ธ Workouts sync in a batch instead of right away
That is expected with Peloton's Apple Health connection. Peloton only syncs while the mobile app is open, so pending sessions can stack up and then upload together the next time you launch the app.
โ ๏ธ I see duplicate workouts in Apple Health
If Strava is also writing the same Peloton sessions into Apple Health, remove the overlapping Strava workout history from Apple Health or keep only one route into Health for that workout source.
FAQ
Does Peloton sync to Apple Health automatically?
Yes, but only while the Peloton app is open on your iPhone. If you finish workouts on hardware first, they can stay pending until you reopen the mobile app.
What Peloton data reaches Apple Health?
Apple Health gets the workout record and supported workout metrics such as calories, duration, and class-specific performance fields like distance, pace, or elevation when those metrics exist for the class.
Can Peloton sync old workouts to Apple Health?
Peloton says the Apple Health integration can sync your workout history, and it can also upload pending past sessions in bulk the next time the iPhone app opens. It is still best to connect before you rely on it for ongoing tracking.
Why do Peloton workouts sometimes duplicate in Apple Health?
The most common cause is another service, especially Strava, writing the same Peloton workout into Apple Health as well. If both routes are active, Apple Health can end up with overlapping copies.
Do I need an iPhone for Peloton to Apple Health?
Yes. Peloton's Apple Health integration is tied to the iOS app, so you need an iPhone to configure and maintain the connection.
