Apple Health & Cronometer Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my sleep data from Apple Health incorrect in Cronometer?
If you are importing sleep into Apple Health using a third-party app, this could be the reason your sleep data is showing incorrectly.
You can fix this issue by changing the permissions for the third-party app within Apple Health to ‘Read Only’. This will make sure that sleep data from the third-party app isn’t exported back to Apple Health.
