About This Integration
Apple Health is the central data hub on every iPhone, aggregating health metrics from the Apple Watch, third-party apps, and manual entries. It stores steps, heart rate, HRV, sleep stages, workouts, VO2 Max, blood oxygen, respiratory rate, and dozens more data types - passively, in the background, every day.
Vora reads from Apple Health directly via HealthKit, pulling your biometric data into its AI coaching engine. Your sleep from last night informs today's workout intensity. Your HRV trend affects your recovery score. Your steps and active calories feed into your daily energy calculations. The data that sits unused in the Health app becomes actionable coaching.
