How to get your COROS workouts into Forta
Forta reads workouts from Apple Health on your iPhone, and the COROS app can send your COROS data there. In the COROS app, go to the Profile page, then Settings, 3rd Party Apps, Data Sync and Apple Health, and pick the data types. COROS sends your activities as workouts, along with heart rate, steps and distance. Routes and active energy aren’t on COROS’s list of data it shares.

What reaches Apple Health
| Data | Reaches Apple Health | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Workouts | Yes | COROS’s release notes say indoor and outdoor runs and rides, and pool and open-water swims, are told apart. |
| Heart rate | Yes | |

| Daily steps | Yes | Also walking and running, cycling, and swimming distance. |
| Active energy | Not listed | Calories aren’t on COROS’s list. |

COROS also sends sleep.
How long syncing takes
COROS doesn’t say how quickly new data reaches Apple Health. An activity goes from your watch to the COROS app first, so open the COROS app after a workout, then open Forta.
Known gaps
- Routes aren’t on the list of data COROS shares, so expect no route map in Forta.
- Active energy isn’t on the list either, so a COROS workout in Forta may have no calories.
Troubleshooting
- Check what COROS may share: in the Health app, tap your profile picture in the upper corner, then, under Privacy, tap Apps and COROS, and turn on the data types you want.
- Workout missing? Open the COROS app and check that the activity is there. If it isn’t, your watch hasn’t synced it yet.
- Steps or calories counted twice, or missing? When several sources send the same kind of data, Apple Health uses the one at the top of its list. In the Health app, tap Browse, Activity and Steps, scroll down to Data Sources & Access, tap Edit and drag COROS to the top.
- The same workout twice? If COROS and Strava both send your workouts to Apple Health, each one arrives twice, and Forta lists both. Keep workout sharing on in one of them.
- Still not in Forta? Pull down on Forta’s Workouts list to refresh it. If the workout is in Apple Health but not in Forta, check that Forta may read workouts: in the Health app, tap your profile picture in the upper corner, then, under Privacy, tap Apps and Forta, and turn on Workouts.
