Heads up!
Later this year Google and Samsung will be phasing out the ability for apps to directly integrate with Samsung Health and Google Fit. Samsung Health and Google Fit (and the devices that connect to them) will instead use Health Connect to share data between other apps such as Cronometer.
Unfortunately this means that later this year we will no longer support the integration with Samsung Health.
If you would like to link your Samsung Health data with Cronometer, you can connect your Samsung Health to Health Connect and then link Health Connect to Cronometer.
Learn how to connect Cronometer to Health Connect here.

Troubleshooting
Any time you link two apps together, there is of course more chance of error; feel free to reach out to us at any time for help at support@cronometer.com and we will be happy to help! Before reaching out, it is recommended to try these steps first:
- Try uninstalling and reinstalling both apps. Once you have reinstalled both apps, re-link to Samsung Health via Cronometer
- Ensure Samsung health is syncing: Open your Samsung health app and go to Settings. Then scroll down to "Sync with Samsung Account". Ensure it is toggled on, and the "last synced" date and time is up to date.
- Ensure Permissions are enabled: Open Samsung Health and go to Settings > Data Permissions. Cronometer should appear in the list (If it doesn't appear, open Cronometer, and try linking to Samsung health again). Tap on the Cronometer Tile to open permissions, and ensure all permissions that you want are toggled on.
- If Samsung data is not syncing to a certain date in Cronometer, try force refreshing: You can do this by using the Calendar Widget in your diary to select the date you wish to refresh, or, navigate to the date using the arrows, and pull down on your diary to refresh (A small refresh spinner will appear when you do this).
