Any one having issues with xbox fitness syncing workout data to health partners? For me this feature stopped working. I went in and disconnected and reconnected the partners and it is still not working.

xbox fitness and health vault

I wish Xbox Fitness would sync my workout data to Microsoft service, Health Vault, that way I'd be able to integrate my Xbox Fitness workouts with the Windows 8.1 Health and Fitness app.

Xbox Fitness.

The xbox fitness app is supplying data with too much accuracy to the Microsoft Health Cloud.

This data then gets passed on to other apps, such as runkeeper and HealthVault.

The app needs to supply data with a sensible amount of precision!

As an example after a 10 minute workout my healthvault record shows the following:

Guided workout
11/01/2016 18:28:18.000

Activity
Guided workout

Duration
11.20 min.

Maximum heartrate
63.10546875 BPM

Calories burned
41.953384399414063 Calories
Xbox app was uninstalled and re-installed and the cache cleared before repeating this and getting the same result for over precision.

Hopefully it's not a server shutdown! I still have many achievements to unlock.

I don't think this will affect your achievements. This is for sync to apps like microsoft health vault, myfitnesspal, runkeeper, basically all of their supported health partner apps. I try to sync to these to get points on my health insurance. They are
starting to have programs that give you points for exercise. Without this sync I do not get my humana points. I would have to by a stupid fitbit to track and get my points. I am working towards a free mountain bike.

HealthVault integration arrived with an update today. As well as being able to sync to RunKeeper, MapMyFitness, MyFitnessPal, and support for the Microsoft Band.

You have to link those accounts to make it work. In the Xbox Fitness settings, press the Connect button under Microsoft Health Partners. From there an page will open in Internet Explorer. Sign in with the Microsoft account you use to play Xbox Fitness with,
and link you other accounts from there.

It synced the first 2 workout I did this morning. Only in the case of MyFitnessPal it logged it strange, others are fine.

Agreed. This really needs to happen. My Fitbit tracker (and scale) and my Omron bp monitor talk to health vault....xbox fitness needs to sync activity to Health Vault. All of the 360 fitness games (yourshape:fe, Nike +Kinect, Adidas micoach etc.) at least
synced somewhere that we could access the data. If you have the data why make us hand enter in health vault. If you want Xbox fitness, which is great by the way, to succeed have it integrate into health vault. Especially when you start to charge a fee
for the service.

Xbox Fitness does sync data to RunKeeper, MapMyFitness and MyFitnessPal. As well as their own Microsoft Health and HealthVault products. You just need to configure it in the settings.
