Tracking progress is the key to crushing your fitness goals, and lucky for us, one of the most powerful tracking tools is already in our pockets—our smartphones. These little devices are packed with high-tech fitness trackers that talk to each other, syncing everything from daily steps to heart rate and calories burned. The Virtuagym app, used by Better Bodies, takes this to the next level by bringing all those metrics together in one place. Whether you're on Apple or Android, your fitness data—including InBody results—can sync seamlessly, helping you track your progress smarter and set even better goals.

What Data Can Be Synced?
For iOS (Apple Health)
Virtuagym does not send data to Apple Health, but it can pull the following:
✅ Steps – Your iPhone tracks steps all day, and Virtuagym pulls that data into your activity calendar.✅ Walking & Running Distance – Virtuagym logs this along with calorie estimates.✅ Workouts – Any workouts recorded by other apps (type, duration, calories burned, etc.) will sync.✅ Heart Rate – If you use an Apple Watch or another compatible device, Virtuagym can track heart rate data to estimate workout intensity.
For Android (Health Connect)
Virtuagym can pull:
✅ Walking, Running, Cycling, Swimming (and more)✅ Steps, Duration, Distance, Speed, Calories Burned, Heart Rate
❌ Virtuagym cannot send data to Health Connect. This means your other fitness apps need to send their data to Health Connect first for Virtuagym to read it.
