Strava launches Healthkit, supports native Apple Workout syncing
Summary
A couple of years ago, Apple provided support for 3rd party developers to access the GPS radio so one could use one of these apps and capture the data to be used with that service. While this was helpful, it also meant you couldnt use the very capable Apple Workout app with all of the native integration. With todays announcement, you can now complete your exercise program with Workout on your Apple Watch and then have every activity synced automatically to the Strava service. One may ask why this matters and the answer is that Strava provides a social network for athletes with a powerful web experience that lets you develop reports, track trends, give kudos to other athletes, compete on Strava Segments and in challenges, and more. The Strava app is still available and works well for many people, but many others have had trouble with consistent syncing, lost workouts, and more.
