Yes, Lark can read your activity data from wearable devices. Your Lark application receives data about your activity and health using your phone’s default Health apps. For iPhone users, this is the Apple Health app. For Android users, this app is the Google Fit app.
- If your device (such an Apple Watch® or Samsung® Watch) is already connected to your phone's Health app, Lark will automatically transfer this activity data to your Lark app.
- If you have a Fitbit®, you can connect that directly with Lark.
- If your device does not connect to your smart phone's health app (such as a Garmin Watch®, Amazfit®, or other pedometers), you can add your activity manually into the Lark app.
