Quiz result
Your result: HealthKit on iPhone, Health Connect on Android
Your answers point to the two platform health stores, one per app: HealthKit on iPhone and Health Connect on Android. It is a starting point from the eight-question quiz, not a verdict on any product.
When this fits (our judgment)
- Your users' data already lands in the phone's health store, and the app is the one reading it.
- You would rather not run servers that hold health data.
- You want no per-user fee for the data itself.
- You ship both mobile apps anyway, so a reader in each is not extra architecture.
What to check first (our judgment)
- Two integrations with different type names and permissions: map them once, in one place.
- Anything that has to reach your backend is yours to upload from each app.
The options, and what this site’s sources say
What this site's sourced cost model says about each:
- Free and platform-bound: iOS-family only, on-device, no server-to-server pull. HealthKit itself is included with the Apple Developer Program, whose paid membership you need to ship any app — verify current pricing with Apple.
- Before you ship: App Store review checks that your health usage-description strings match what you actually do.
- Cost model: Free.
From Apple HealthKit vs Google Health Connect (2026), where each statement is sourced and dated.
- Free as part of the Android platform, Android-only and on-device. An app reads only about 30 days of history before first grant unless it requests the historical-read permission.
- Before you ship: Play Console health-data declaration and review before you can publish.
- Cost model: Free.
