Introduction
HONOR Health is the official companion app for HONOR smartwatches, fitness bands, and smart scales, developed by Honor Device Co., Ltd. Available on Google Play (package: com.hihonor.health) and the App Store (ID: 1640493591). With over 100 million downloads on Google Play and a 4.3-star rating across 53,000+ reviews, HONOR Health is the central hub for HONOR wearable users who want to track fitness, monitor health metrics, and manage their devices.
Note: HONOR (荣耀) became an independent company in November 2020 after separating from Huawei. HONOR Health is a standalone app — it is not compatible with Huawei wearables. Huawei device users should use the Huawei Health app instead.
What Is the HONOR Health App?
The HONOR Health app (also known as 荣耀运动健康 in Chinese markets) is a health and fitness platform that records and analyzes movement data, monitors vital health metrics, connects to HONOR wearable devices, and provides exercise tracking services. Once paired with a compatible HONOR Watch or Band via Bluetooth, the app automatically syncs activity data, health readings, and workout summaries to your phone.
Key capabilities include heart rate monitoring, blood oxygen (SpO₂) tracking, sleep analysis, stress detection, 100+ workout modes, watch face management, and firmware updates — all from a single unified app.

HONOR Health is the official companion app for HONOR smartwatches, fitness bands, and smart scales, developed by Honor Device Co., Ltd. It records and analyzes movement and health data, connects and manages HONOR wearable devices, and provides exercise tracking services. The app supports heart rate, SpO₂, sleep, stress monitoring, 100+ workout modes, watch face management, and firmware updates. It requires a compatible HONOR wearable device — such as Watch 5, Watch 4, Band 9, or Band 7 — to access sensor-based health features.
What devices are compatible with HONOR Health?
HONOR Health supports HONOR Watch 5 Ultra, Watch 5, Watch 4 Pro, Watch 4, Watch GS3, Choice Watch, Band 9, Band 7, Band 6, Band 4 Running, and Scale 3. The app is NOT compatible with Huawei wearable devices — after HONOR separated from Huawei in November 2020, the two ecosystems became completely independent. If your device doesn't appear in the pairing list, check for app updates or consult HONOR support.
Is HONOR Health compatible with Huawei watches?
No. HONOR Health does NOT work with Huawei wearables. After HONOR's separation from Huawei in November 2020, the two companies maintain completely separate device ecosystems. If you have a Huawei smartwatch or band, you must use the Huawei Health app. Similarly, new HONOR wearable devices cannot be connected to Huawei Health — they require HONOR Health.
Does HONOR Health sync with Google Fit or Strava?
HONOR Health does not natively sync with Google Fit, Strava, or Samsung Health as of the current version. On iOS, it supports bi-directional sync with Apple HealthKit — exercise data can flow between HONOR Health and Apple Health. For Android users who want to export data to other platforms, third-party bridge tools may be available, but there is no official integration. This is a commonly requested feature.
Why does HONOR Health keep disconnecting from my watch?
Bluetooth disconnection is a common issue, usually caused by your phone's battery optimization killing the HONOR Health background process. To fix: (1) Disable battery optimization for HONOR Health in your phone settings; (2) Add the app to 'Protected Apps' or 'Auto-launch' whitelist; (3) On MIUI/EMUI/ColorOS, lock the app in recent tasks to prevent it from being killed; (4) Ensure Bluetooth is not being restricted by any power saving mode; (5) Try unpairing and re-pairing the device if the issue persists.
How do I download the HONOR Health APK?
You can download the HONOR Health APK from APKMirror at https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/honor-device-co-ltd/honor-health/. The latest version (17.20.0.303) requires Android 9.0 or higher. The APK size is approximately 237 MB. It's recommended to use Google Play for automatic updates. If you sideload the APK, you'll need to enable 'Install from unknown sources' in your Android settings.
Does HONOR Health work on iPhone?
Yes, HONOR Health is available on iPhone via the App Store (requires iOS 15.1 or later). It supports bi-directional sync with Apple HealthKit. However, some features are Android-only: eSIM management, music control from wearable, and YOYO AI suggestions are not available on iOS. The app is available in 100+ countries on the App Store.
Is HONOR Health free to use?
Yes, HONOR Health is completely free to download and use on both Android and iOS. There are no subscription plans or mandatory in-app purchases. Some premium watch faces in the watch face market may require purchase, but all core health tracking, workout recording, and device management features are free. The app does not contain ads.
How accurate is the sleep tracking in HONOR Health?
Sleep tracking accuracy depends on your HONOR wearable model and wearing position. The app uses accelerometer and heart rate data to detect sleep stages (deep, light, REM). Some users report inconsistent sleep detection — especially for naps or when the watch is worn loosely. For best results: (1) Wear the watch snugly 2-3cm above your wrist bone; (2) Enable continuous heart rate monitoring in sleep mode; (3) Set a consistent sleep schedule in the app. The app can store up to one year of sleep history.
What data does HONOR Health collect?
HONOR Health collects: (1) HONOR ID information (user ID, country, age, gender); (2) Device/network info (IP, device identifiers, app version); (3) Health data (heart rate, SpO₂, sleep, blood pressure, stress, body composition); (4) Fitness data (GPS location, workout routes, steps, calories); (5) Personal info (height, weight). Data is stored in Singapore, encrypted in transit, and subject to GDPR. You can request data deletion through the app settings or by contacting HONOR support.

Google Play
great app for tracking heart rate, sleep etc. just terrible weather information. I have it synced to my honor choice band pro 2 and the weather says it's sunny, though it's raining. this is after syncing with the honor app, the location is correct and my phone shows the accurate information. whatever weather site it gets info from needs to change, or just let us sync our phone info.

Changelog
v17.20.1.300 (iOS) / v17.20.0.303 (Android) — March 2026
Optimize application stability and improve user experience
The sleep recording is very erratic. The times that I've slept well, says that I've had 3hrs of sleep. last night I had a good 9hrs+ of good sleep, waking up twice briefly, and it show I only had 3 hrs of scattered nap through the period, but start/end times ar pretty accurate. I don't know if it the watch or app.
