In plain terms: Connecting your watch, ring or health app gives HAVYT a richer picture of your recovery — with less typing for you. Just remember: consumer wearables are wellness gadgets, not medical monitors. Their numbers can be off, late or missing, and HAVYT inherits whatever they send.
⌚
Wellness gadgets, not medical monitors — The devices HAVYT connects to are consumer wellness products. Never use their numbers to make medical decisions, and never ignore symptoms because your numbers "look fine".
This disclaimer applies to all optional health-data integrations in HAVYT, currently:
Apple Health (HealthKit) — including data that other devices and apps write into Apple Health, such as Garmin, Fitbit and Polar devices;
Oura;
WHOOP;
Huawei Health.
Depending on your permissions, imported data can include steps, workouts, sleep and sleep stages, heart rate, resting heart rate, heart-rate variability (HRV), respiratory rate, blood-oxygen estimates (SpO2), body temperature, active energy and distance. The exact data types and how they are stored are described in the Privacy Policy.
2. Imported data can be inaccurate, delayed, missing or inconsistent
Wearable and health-platform data is imperfect by nature:
Inaccurate — sensor readings depend on fit, skin contact, movement, temperature and device quality; sleep staging and calorie estimates are algorithmic guesses;
Delayed — data often arrives hours later, after the device syncs with its own app and platform;
Missing — dead batteries, nights without the device, sync failures and permission changes all leave gaps;
Inconsistent — two devices measuring the same thing routinely disagree, and each vendor calculates metrics like HRV or "readiness" differently.
HAVYT displays and uses this data as received. HAVYT is not responsible for errors, gaps or delays in data produced by third-party devices and platforms — we can only be as accurate as the source. If a number looks wrong, check it in the source app first.
3. Consumer wearables are not medical monitors
The devices and platforms HAVYT connects to are consumer wellness products, not medical devices or clinical monitoring equipment (except where a vendor explicitly certifies a specific feature — which is between you and that vendor). In particular:
heart rate, HRV, SpO2, respiratory rate and temperature readings from wearables are wellness estimates, not clinical measurements;
neither the devices nor HAVYT monitor you for medical events, and neither will alert you to a medical problem;
never use wearable data in HAVYT to make decisions about medication, treatment or medical care, and never ignore symptoms because your numbers "look fine".
If you have concerning symptoms, follow the emergency guidance in the Health & Medical Disclaimer — regardless of what any device says.
4. How HAVYT uses imported data
Honestly and specifically, HAVYT uses imported health data to:
inform your readiness and recovery guidance (e.g. suggesting a lighter day after signals consistent with poor recovery — always relative to your own baseline);
prefill parts of your Daily Check-In (e.g. sleep times and steps), which you can always edit or override;
enrich insights and patterns over your own logs, and give Emelie better context when you use AI features (see the AI Features Disclaimer).
All of this stays within the wellness framing of the Health & Medical Disclaimer: baseline-relative estimates and self-tracking support, never medical assessment. Manual entries always win — if you correct a value, HAVYT respects your correction.
5. Optional, and reversible — how to connect and disconnect
Every integration is optional. HAVYT works without any connected device; you simply enter more things manually.
Connect an integration in HAVYT's settings; you control which data types you grant.
Disconnect at any time. Apple Health access is managed in iOS Settings → Health → Data Access & Devices. HAVYT no longer offers a direct Oura, WHOOP or Huawei connection; if you made one in an earlier version, email support@havyt.app to have any stored authorisation deleted, and also remove HAVYT's access in that provider's own account settings, which takes effect immediately on their side.
Apple Health permissions are managed by iOS: revoke HAVYT's read access in the Health app / iOS Settings (Privacy → Health).
6. What disconnecting does — and does not — delete
Disconnecting an integration stops new data from being imported. It does not automatically delete data already imported into HAVYT — your history stays, because it is part of your own log, until you delete it. You can delete imported data through the app's data controls or by deleting your account (full deletion cascade); details are in the Privacy Policy.
7. Third-party terms apply
Your relationship with each device and platform vendor (Apple, Oura, WHOOP, Huawei, Garmin, Fitbit, Polar and others) is governed by that vendor's own terms of service and privacy policy. HAVYT has no control over how these vendors collect, process or share data on their side, what their devices measure, or how accurate they are. Please review the vendor's terms before connecting.
