How to link Apple Watch with Runnify
If you don't know how to link your Apple Watch with Runnify yet, follow these steps:
- Open the Runnify app and tap the three lines on the left > Sync your watch in the dropdown menu
- Activate the connection by tapping "Apple Watch"
- You will be asked for Apple Health permissions. You must allow them all so Runnify can send workouts to your watch and receive your session results
Once you complete these steps and grant the required permissions, your Runnify workouts will sync automatically with your Apple Watch.
Important: if you deny any Apple Health permission, synchronization may not work correctly. You can review and enable them at any time from Settings > Health > User Icon > Apps > Runnify on your iPhone.
How to start a Runnify workout on your Apple Watch
Workouts sent from Runnify appear automatically in the native Workout app on your Apple Watch. To start a session:
- Open the Workout app on your Apple Watch
- Scroll until you find the running workout sent from Runnify
- Select it and tap to start
- Follow the watch instructions throughout the session
You don't need to install any additional app on your watch: Runnify uses the workout app that already comes built into Apple Watch.
What happens if I change my training plan? Don't worry: Runnify will keep your workouts updated on your Apple Watch when you modify your plan or complete sessions.
