Your sync
Your private sync link
Both ways below send your data to a private link that only works for your Plait account. Prepare it once.
-
Add the Plait Sync shortcut
Plait Sync is a free shortcut for Apple’s Shortcuts app. It reads your Apple Health data on your iPhone and sends it only to your Plait account. No other app or subscription.
- Safari asks to download “Plait Sync.shortcut”: tap “Download”.
- Open it from Downloads (the arrow in Safari’s address bar), then tap “Add Shortcut”.
- If Shortcuts asks for your sync link, you can leave it empty: step 2 connects it for you.
-
Connect and send your last 14 days
Runs Plait Sync once with your private link. When iOS asks, allow Health access (“Turn On All”), then come back here: the checklist above fills in within a minute.
Prepare your connection above first.
-
Sync every morning automatically
A daily automation sends yesterday’s full day and last night’s sleep without you opening anything.
- Open the Shortcuts app and tap “Automation” at the bottom.
- Tap “+” (or “New Automation”), then “Time of Day”.
- Choose a time when your iPhone is usually unlocked (for example 7:00, after your alarm), repeat Daily, and select “Run Immediately”.
- Tap “Next”, choose Plait Sync, then “Done”.
What to tap in the Shortcuts app (labels may differ slightly by iOS version).
iOS only lets shortcuts read Health data while your iPhone is unlocked. A run while it is locked sends nothing and Plait Sync says so; the next run sends the last 14 days again, so nothing is lost.
Manual setup or replace my sync link
Keep this private link secret. Anyone with it can upload data to your Plait account.
Plait Sync: paste this link when Shortcuts asks for it while you add the shortcut, or copy it and run Plait Sync once.
If a setup button does not open the app, install or update Health Auto Export and try this page in Safari.
For manual setup, add a REST API automation with this URL, JSON version 2, and Health Metrics. Select the measurements below, aggregate by Days, enable sleep aggregation, and choose the Default date range (yesterday and today). Create a separate Workouts automation with the same URL and turn off routes and workout metadata.
Heart Rate Variability · Resting Heart Rate · Sleep Analysis · Active Energy · Basal Energy Burned · Step Count · VO2 Max · Respiratory Rate · Apple Exercise Time · Heart Rate
Enable both automations. A six-hour sync interval is a preference; iOS decides when background syncing can run.
What Plait does with it
- Calories: once three complete days arrive, your daily target comes from your measured active + resting calories instead of an estimate.
- Recovery (0-100): your HRV vs your 30-day baseline (50%), resting heart rate vs baseline (25%), and sleep duration/consistency (25%). Expect it to settle after 3+ days of data.
- Strain (0-21): from active calories and workout minutes.
- Sleep: in-bed time, deep / REM / core stages and efficiency.
Your data stays private to your Plait account. Beta: things may change; email support@plait.fit with feedback.
