Connecting your Samsung Health data to the MyCoach app

Samsung Health doesn't connect directly to MyCoach yet - here's the best workaround

Your data hops through three apps: Samsung Health → Health Connect → Google Fit → MyCoach


Before you start

Install these four apps from the Play Store, all on the same phone:

  • Samsung Health

  • Health Connect

  • Google Fit

  • MyCoach

Sign into Google Fit and MyCoach with the same Google account.


Step 1: Samsung Health → Health Connect

  1. In Samsung Health, tap the menu (top right) → Settings → Health Connect.

  2. Tap Connect to Health Connect.

  3. Tap Allow all → Allow.

Step 2: Health Connect → Google Fit

  1. Open Health Connect (or find it via Settings → Apps).

  2. Tap App permissions → Google Fit.

  3. Turn on Read and Write for the data you want to share.

Step 3: Google Fit → MyCoach

  1. In MyCoach, go to Profile → Connected Apps → GoogleFit → Connect.

  2. Sign in with your Google account and tap Allow.

  3. Pull down to refresh.

Your data should appear in MyCoach within 15–30 minutes. Only data recorded after setup will sync - past workouts won't backfill.


Troubleshooting

Data not showing up? Open Samsung Health, Google Fit, then My Coach in order. Still nothing? Disconnect Google Fit in My Coach and reconnect it.
​

Health Connect missing from Samsung Health? Update Samsung Health in the Play Store.
​

Some data types missing? Check permissions in both Samsung Health → Health Connect and Health Connect → Google Fit.
