Apple Health &
Samsung Health
Apple Watch and Samsung Gear devices are compatible with mobile apps. Third-party devices
connected through Apple Health and Samsung Health will not sync to Go365.
To ensure the proper
data transfers from Apple Health, please be sure to sign in to the Go365 App
after your
daily activity.
To force a sync of steps for Apple Health, the member needs to log into
the
Go365 app at least
once a week. Upon login, the Go365app will pull data from up to 7 days
prior.
Please allow 24 hours from the time you open the Go365 app for Points to reflect on your Go365
Statement.
When viewing the steps on a iphone Apple Health app, the total is an aggregate of both the app and the
Apple watch. The app adds the steps together. The Go365 system receives both step totals and uses the
highest value of the two to award Points.
Polar
Workouts from Polar devices have not transferred
to Go365 since April 1, 2017. There have been
some changes in the Polar data stream that aren’t allowing all the data to get to Go365 like it normally
does. The Go365 Support Team is actively working with Polar to get this working again.
We are going to do everything we can to try to get the missing data reposted to your account.
However, if you have an urgent need for your workouts to be posted, please contact the Message
Center from your Go365 dashboard. When doing so, please provide documentation from Polar
regarding your missing workouts. We suggest that you have several days/weeks in one file.
The data connection from our partners is not instantaneous. This means that your workouts aren’t going to transfer to Go365
right away. Take a look below for an example using Fitbit data:
1.
You walk 12,000 steps
2. The steps are uploaded to Fitbit.com
3. Go365 checks your Fitbit Account for data
4. Go365 posts the data on your calendar
5. Based on the steps, Go365 awards points based on what it sees
6. Several hours later, Go365 checks Fitbit again to see if there are changes
Based on the process, it is possible for you to see partial workouts on your calendar because Go365 hasn’t yet received the most
recent data.
Please Remember:
• Go365 can’t award Points until it can see the data
• Just because you see the workout on your device or the device’s app, it does not mean the data is available for Go365 to use
• If Go365 checks your partnered account before you upload, the delay to your calendar could be a little longer than you expect
• Try to give up to 48 hours before you get concerned about workout uploads
