Importing or Syncing Activity Data with the Lenus App

How does it work and which activities can be imported to the Lenus app?

Written by Bukunmi Ojumu

With Lenus app, you can easily track all your health and fitness activities in one place. By syncing your data with Apple Health and Google Fit, you can have a comprehensive view of your health and make informed decisions about your well-being.

How Does Lenus App Sync Data?

Lenus app synchronizes data with Apple Health/Google Fit every time you open the app, if you have already activated integration. This means that every time you open the app, it will automatically sync your data from Apple Health or Google Fit.

However, there is a limit to how often the app will sync your data.

  1. Syncing Trigger: Data synchronization happens every time you bring the Lenus app into the foreground (i.e., when you actively open the app). Even if the app has been running in the background for an extended period, you don't need to fully close and reopen it to trigger a sync.

  2. Sync Frequency: The app will not re-sync if the last synchronization happened within the last 10 minutes. This prevents data duplication and helps improve performance.

How Far Back Does Lenus App Sync Data?

  1. Time Frame: The Lenus app syncs data starting from 2 days before your last sync, up to the current time. This ensures that recent activities and health metrics are accurately reflected in your app.

  2. Syncing Older Data: If you need to sync steps and activities older than two days, you can manually import data. To do this, go to the Integration section in Settings, and press the button to import activities from the last 30 days.

What Activities Cannot Be Synced with the Lenus App?

Lenus app can sync a wide range of activities from Apple Health and Google Fit. These include steps, dance, workouts, and more.

However, it is important to note that not all activities in Google Fit can be imported to the Lenus app. For example, the activity labeled "Other" in Google Fit will not be imported. This means that specific activities like HIIT or Pilates may not appear in Lenus, if these activities are categorized under "Other" in Google Fit. If you see that some of your activities are not syncing, this could be why.

Also, activities that are shorter than 5 minutes do not get imported to or synced with the Lenus app.
