// THE SHORT ANSWER //

What does IronLedger connect to?

IronLedger connects to Apple Health on iPhone, and it works fully without it. Apple Health is two-way: it receives your finished sessions and gives the app your latest body weight. Health Connect, Strava and Oura are coming soon.

Nothing syncs until you turn it on. Every connection can be revoked from the operating system, and no integration is required to log a set, run a program, or see your analytics.

// THE CONNECTIONS //

One live, three coming soon, stated exactly.

Apple HealthiOS · with permissionTwo-way

Two-way. IronLedger writes your completed strength workouts to Health, and reads body weight so calorie estimates use a current number rather than a figure you typed once.

  • WriteCompleted strength workouts, with duration and energy
  • ReadBody weight, used for calorie estimates and your dashboard
It cannot deleteA workout written to Apple Health has to be deleted in Apple Health. Deleting the session in IronLedger removes it from your log here, but IronLedger cannot remove a record it already handed over.

// PERMISSIONS //

What each connection asks for, and why.

Health permissions deserve a straight answer, so here is the whole list. Each row is a permission the app requests, what it is used for, and what happens if you decline it.

PermissionUsed forIf you decline
Workouts, writeApple HealthLets a finished IronLedger session appear in your phone's health app alongside runs and rides, so your weekly activity is complete.Sessions stay in IronLedger only. Nothing else changes.
Body weight, readApple HealthUses a current body weight for calorie estimates on a session and for the body weight on your dashboard.Calorie estimates fall back to a value you enter yourself, or a default.

Permissions are requested at the moment you enable a connection, never at first launch, and every one can be revoked later from the operating system’s own health or app settings.

// DIRECT ANSWERS //

Questions about connected apps.

Do I need any of these to use IronLedger?

No. None of them. Logging is local and needs no account. Every feature works with Apple Health switched off.

Why can't the app delete an Apple Health workout?

The integration cannot delete. IronLedger can write a workout to Health but cannot remove one it has already handed over. Delete it in Apple Health, and delete the session in IronLedger if you want it gone from both.

Does Oura change my programmed weights?

No. Oura is coming soon and is not available in the app yet. Programmed targets come from your program and your logged sets.

Is Health Connect available now?

Not yet. It is coming soon. It shows as Coming soon in the app. The Android app itself is in closed testing: join the Google Group, then opt in on Google Play with the same Google account.

Can I import Strava activities as workouts?

No. Strava is coming soon and is not available in the app yet.

How do I revoke a connection?

From the operating system. For Apple Health, use the iOS Health privacy settings. Turning Apple Health off in IronLedger stops the sync as well.
