New health app sync

I seem to be experiencing the same thing. The app apparently syncs the data on the various devices overnight. Puzzling & a bit inconvenient. Especially since I use all

the devices interchangeably throughout the day. With tracking meds I have to be careful to always use the same device.

Hey there,

I do have the same problem. I do have to mention that I have iOS 16 installed on my phone since I still use my iPhone X, which doesn‘t support iOS 17. Either way, it shouldn‘t effect the Health app. I do have iPad OS 17 on my iPad. The only time it seems to update the data on my iPad is when my iPhone backed up the health data to iCloud. To see what time the iPhone uploaded the data, go to the health app > click on your profile in the top right corner > scroll all the way down and in small print you will see the exact time of the last back up.

Seems like the iPad pulls the health data off of the iCloud backup and doesn’t immediately sync with the iPhone like the apple Watch does. One somewhat annoying workaround I found was to restart the iPhone, which for some reason triggers the process to do a backup.

Now this might be different if you use iOS 17, then it could sync normally with your iPad like you‘re used to with the iPhone and Watch. But regarding your problem, it seems like there is no difference.

Have a nice day and hopefully this will get more convenient soon.

This. I’m puzzled that iPad supporting Health doesn’t come with immediate sync for Medications at the very least. I can’t imagine it being a good idea to claim as the app as supported when it can actually lead to making mistakes with your possibly very strict posology.
