Is Nike Fuelband supposed to link to Health App?

My understanding was that the Nike Fuelband would link to Health app so that I could have my fitness tracking data in one place.   After 8.0.1 I expected the unit to link, and it didn't.  I contacted Fuelband support and they said "the problem is on Apple's end."  I don't know exactly what that means.   Any information?

It isn't the Health app that's counting your steps. It's the M7 co-processor that's built into the phone. The Health app just reports the data. To the best of my knowledge, there's no way to disable the co-processor. There is also no way to prevent the data from being transferred to the Health app.
Perhaps if you can explain why you want to do this, someone can offer additional suggestions.
Best of luck.

  • Health app is not linking to Nike + or other apps.

    The new Health app is not connecting with either of the Nike + apps that I have or the Runtastic apps.  I am also not seeing Nike + iPod on my phone since I upgraded.

    The apps haven't been updated to use HealthKit yet. Apple just opened it up yesterday (after previously having a bug) and it will take some time to have the updated apps approved and pushed though the store.
    My response was a bit late, I see! Great to hear that it was opened up again. Thanks for the info.

    Hello Ken, Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I can certainly understand why you would want to get your Nike+ FuelBand connecting to the new iOS 8 Health app. Currently we're working with Apple because due to an unspecified issue with Health Kit and the Health App, data sharing between those apps and other apps (including NikeFuel) is not currently enabled. I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but I would keep your eye on updates for iOS 8, and the Nike+ FuelBand and FuelBand app.  Should you have any further questions or concerns, please let me know; I am here to help. Sincerely, Dante

  • Menu option: Nike+iPod Settings Remote Link. Missing on 1st Gen Nano

    Hi,
    Really confused here.
    In the Nike + iPod manual section, 'Using a Nike + iPod Remote' its stated i need to:
    - Choose Nike+iPod > Settings > Remote > Link and follow the onscreen instructions.
    I dont have 'Remote' option on the 'Settings' menu.
    I'm on iTunes 7.7.0.43 (Vista) with Nano software 1.3.1
    Trying to connect an Nike + Amp watch to the Nano.

    I just took another look at this and figured out what i was doing wrong.
    In the event someone else is acting as dumb as me:
    - To get the Nike+iPod > Settings > Remote menu to appear on your iPod Nano. You need to be pressing Play / Pause on the Remote device, while the Nano is on the Nike+iPod > Settings menu. The Remote menu then auto-magically appears.
    - Pressing Play / Pause on the Nano is not the thing to be doing to make the remote menu appear.
    Yeah i feel dumb.
    But in my defence the manual doesnt specify the Play / Pause button to be pushing; the one on the Nano or the Remote.
    Happy running!

  • IPod Nano 7th gen Nike  Fuelband SE support?

    Does anybody know if the Nike+ app on my iPod Nano 7 support the new Nike+ Fuelband SE?

    Hello,
    I have the ipod nano 7th gen. I use it without the sensor and it works fine. It is quite accurate. I have tested it by running around my neighborhood and then compared my run  to Google Maps and it was pretty close. After each run, you can calibrate your distance. This will make your runs even more accurate.

  • My nephew gave me a Nike Fuelband. I cannot use my iPhone in Norway due to extreme expense but I can use MacBook Air. Is there an app?

    My nephew gave me a Nike Fuelband. I cannot use my iPhone in Norway due to extreme expense but I can use MacBook Air. This is not an apple product and I cannot get to a chat site because I do not have a product serial number.
    Is there an app to let me use the Nike Fuelband on my MacBook Air?

    Sure you can.
    You don't need to activate the phone service to use the iPhone.
    This is not an apple product and I cannot get to a chat site because I do not have a product serial number
    You don't need a serial number to set it up or use it.

    The serial number is on the back, below the model name.

    Hi
    iDVD is not a general DVD encoding program that can handles lot's of various video and audio file types.
    No it's very picky.
    What did You feed it -
    Video - in what codec (.avi, .wmv, .mov  are containers no specific codecs) ?
    Audio - in what file format - I only use .aiff 16-bit 48kHz as from miniDV tape Cameras - What did You use ?
    If it don't play in iDVD Preview - then don't wast a DVD disk on it.
    Try to Save as a DiskImage instead and test this first - if this play OK - burn DVD from this.
    Yours Bengt W

  • Health app: bug in daily average for sleep in year view?

    I've manually entered sleep time for everyday since August 2014 in the Health app (on iOS 8, on an iPhone 6).
    In Day, Week, and Month view, the daily average seems correct (resp. 7h49, 7h09, 7h09).
    But it is obviously wrong in the Year view (12h36mn).
    Also the graph in the Year view is wrong. (The bar for August is twice as high as the one for October for instance.)
    (I've check -3 times- that these manually entered data were correct.)
    Does anybody experience the same problem?
    Or as any idea what the bars, in the Year Graph, are supposed to represent? (daily average for each month? or total sum of sleep time for the month?)
    Thanks in advance!

    The Health App really serves as a conduit between a variety of other apps that wouldn't ordinarily be able to talk to each other. The App Store has a section for apps that work with Health to be able to sync data.
    You can submit feedback to Apple here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Don't stress to much if you can't find a section dedicated to Health. Pick something under "iPhone" and just make sure you explain it well.

  • Health app and restarting day

    so i get up pretty early every day, 4am. my health app doesn't seem
    to restart the day. when I open my health app in the morning it gives me all of my data from yesterday.
    how many steps I walked, etc. but doesn't show any of today's data? I noticed this happening yesterday too, but
    i updated the iOS and the day reset and started recording my steps. Is there a certain time the day restarts?
    I would assume it should be 12am, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
    I haven't had this issue before, any tips or suggestions as to why this is happening?

    Keith,
    Thanks for the quick response...  It wasn't clear (since I got here from the Support page) that this wasn't Apple.  Will take your suggestion and see if I can find the appropriate area through the link you provided...

  • Share nikefuel band data in health app

    share nikefuel band data in health app

    Hello there rcque,
    You may be able to share the health data gathered by the Nike Fuel band and app with the built in Health app on your phone by looking at the sources tab in Health, and the settings for your device within its app:
    Use Health on your iPhone or iPod touch with iOS 8 - Apple Support
    Sources
    Here you'll find any third-party apps and devices that can send data to Health. You can control which apps have access to your health data.
    You can also see which apps have access to your health data by going to Settings > Privacy > Health.
    And this from the iOS 8 User Guide:
    Collect health and fitness data - iPhone
    Collect data from a device. Follow the instructions that can come with the device to set it up. If it’s a Bluetooth device, you need to pair it with iPhone—see Bluetooth devices.
    Collect data from an app. Follow the instructions that can come with the app to set it up, then watch for a sharing request where you control whether data is shared with the Health app.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Using Health app in iOS 8

    Perhaps I'm missing something about how the "Health" app is supposed to work.
    It seems to have the most odd data point categories, while leaving out many obvious ones.
    For example, you're able to track your "Molybdenum" intake, but you can't keep track of when you had your last tetanus shot?
    You can enter your "Electrodermal Activity" , but where do you enter what medications you take and whether you took them today?
    Surely you can keep track of your medications with this thing, right?

    As far as I know, it isn't set up for medications. I know there are other medical records types of apps to track that tho.
    Heck, you can't even track water intake
    They've missed a few things in this first iteration of the tools.

  • Do I have to use another fitness app in order for the new health app to track my fitness? Or does the health app have its own gps tracking? It's not working for me.

    I have the iphone 6 ios 8.0.2. The health app hasn't worked for me yet. I have pinned things to my dashboard but it isn't updating anything. I curious to know if I need a third party app in order for it to track? Or if it is supposed to be tracking?

    The iPhone 6 has a built in M8 coprocessor that tracks steps. Start with the manual:

  • HT203037 How am I able to enter my laboratory exams such as blood sugar, cholesterol and triglyceride which I measure regularly in health app?

    I have a device at home for measuring my FBS, TG, cholesterol. Now I want to enter the results in health app, but I did not find a place for that. Is it possible to enter laboratory exams in health app?

    You would make this a little easier if you posted a link to the page.
    Most of the jump seems to be some extra padding or margin between the tabs  when you rollover, but I am not able to find it.  Is there any other css that is governing this page? I did remove a couple of <p></p> set of tags you had  and it improved the jump, but it is still there.
    If the page is live, run it through the validator http://validator.w3.org/ , fix whatever errors it finds, if you still have the jump, post a link to the page and the issue might get found.
