Last updated 3 June 2026
What's happening?
You want to use your Huawei device with STEPPI Teams on an iPhone by syncing your data through Apple Health
What you need before you start
An iPhone
A Huawei device (watch or band)
The Huawei Health app is installed
The Apple Health app (default on iOS)
The STEPPI Teams app is installed
An active internet or data connection
How it works
Huawei devices do not connect directly to STEPPI Teams on iPhone
Instead, your steps follow this path:
Huawei Health → Apple Health → STEPPI Teams
How to connect Huawei Health to STEPPI Teams
Step 1: Connect Huawei Health to Apple Health
Open the Huawei Health app
Go to Settings
Find Data sharing or Connected apps
Enable syncing with Apple Health
Make sure step data is shared
Step 2: Allow Apple Health permissions
Open iPhone Settings
Tap Health
Select Data Access & Devices
Tap Huawei Health
Make sure Huawei Health can write steps data
Step 3: Connect Apple Health to STEPPI Teams
Open the STEPPI Teams app
When prompted to connect a device
Choose Apple Health
Tap Connect
Tap Turn On All and then Save
After connecting
Open the Huawei Health app and make sure your steps are updating
Check that steps appear in Apple Health
Open STEPPI Teams and pull down on the home screen to refresh
Your steps should appear shortly in STEPPI Teams
If your steps are not updating
Make sure Huawei Health is syncing data to Apple Health
Check that Apple Health is receiving step data
Check that STEPPI Teams has permission to read Apple Health data
If it still doesn't work
Restart your iPhone
Open Huawei Health first, then Apple Health, then STEPPI Teams
Disconnect and reconnect Apple Health in STEPPI Teams

Troubleshooting Huawei Health (iPhone) connection issues
Huawei Health is connected but steps are not updating in STEPPI Teams
What's happening?
You've connected Huawei Health through Apple Health, but your steps are missing, delayed, or not updating
Why this happens
This may happen if:
Huawei Health is not syncing data to Apple Health
Apple Health is not receiving step data
STEPPI Teams does not have the correct permissions
There is a delay in syncing between apps
How to fix it
##### 1. Check Huawei Health sync
Open the Huawei Health app
Make sure your steps are updating
##### 2. Check Apple Health data
Open the Apple Health app
Make sure the same steps appear there
STEPPI Teams can only read data that exists in Apple Health
##### 3. Check Apple Health permissions
Go to iPhone Settings → Health → Data Access & Devices
Check both:
Huawei Health (can write data)
STEPPI Teams (can read data)
##### 4. Refresh STEPPI Teams
Open the STEPPI Teams app
Pull down on the home screen to refresh
Wait a few seconds
Manually added data is not counted
Important to know
STEPPI Teams only reads physically tracked activity from Apple Health
Steps that are manually added or edited will not be counted
Why this happens
To ensure fair tracking, only real movement data is accepted
What to do
Wear your Huawei device while moving
Make sure Huawei Health is syncing automatically
Avoid manually adding step data
