Requirements to connect with Apple Health:
An iPhone with Apple Health enabled and running iOS v 12.4 or greater
The latest version of My Virtual Mission app installed from the App Store
A My Virtual Mission account (the same account will work for both)
Important:
The new Apple Health update, reads daily running/walking and cycling distances and posts them on a 24hours schedule.
If you use an Apple Watch to record a run/walk/cycle "workout" it will be added to the daily distance. However currently you are not able to only record workouts and ignore other distances.
Steps to Connect to Apple Health:
In the main screen, refer to the lower pane and select the Main Menu (last icon to the right)
Select Connections from the options
From the Connection screen, find the Apple Health option, click on "Connect"
Click "Connect with Apple Health"
This will automatically into Apple Health, enable ALL 3 options (otherwise the connection may not work), then click on Allow to the top right.
