Availablility & Updates

iOS

This is required on Android Health Connect but can be skipped if you are developing for iOS only.

On Android you will need to ensure the Health Connect application is installed and available for the user.

You can do this by checking the isUpdateRequired() function:

var updateRequired:Boolean = Health.instance.isUpdateRequired();

If this returns true then you must redirect the user to update (or install) the health connect functionality on their device.

You can do this by calling update()

Health.instance.update();

This will redirect the user to the appropriate location in the store or settings to install or update the health connect functionality.

note

You must do this before any other functionality in the extension will operate correctly.
