Can I sync Health app data between two iphones where I track different workouts?

I have two iPhones, I track different workouts on each phone and choose to backup my Health app data to iCloud from both but it doesn't seem that the data is synced between them.

is it possible to sync them or each device backup Health app data separately?

iPhone SE, iOS 13

Health data not syncing between devices I use a fitness app on iPad and IPhone. Both have the same access to write health and fitness data to my Apple ID. When I do a workout using my iPhone it works ok but the identical app on iPad does not register it. The workout is recorded in the apps own history but it doesn’t sync with Apple’s data Does anybody else have this issue?

How to sync Health data from two different iPhones How to sync two data sets in Health app First off all I would like to thank Apple for outstanding products, ecosystem and support. I'm a big fan and a happy Apple's client no matter what pain (hours spent :)))) I have inflicted upon myself. Now the bad thing: I have accidentally deleted one of the devices listed inside Health app. This action caused the deletion of all historical Health data associated with this device (all my workouts and achievements in 3 years is gone). It was my mistake and I have no one to blame, but myself. Fortunately, I do have a separate backup with the historical data which was deleted. I've restored this encrypted iTunes backup to my old iPhone and all the missing Health data is there! What a relief! (sarcasm) Now, I do have two iPhones with the same iOS (16.3) and two different sets of Health data which I would like to sync together. But after two days spent with Apple support it looks like it is absolutely impossible to merge the data from two devices!!!??? Really?! How can it be so? My variables (iPhones have the latest iOS version installed - 16.3 ): a) iPhone 13 Pro Max with Health data starting from Sep 2021 until today (Jan 2022); b) iPhone 8 with Health data starting from Apr 2018 until Sep 2021; c) Apple Watch Ultra with watchOS 9.3 installed; d) Health data sync and store in iCloud is enabled for iPhone 13 Pro Max. But after Health app sync to iCloud is being enabled in iPhone 8 (which holds restored historical data) follows this: 1) Health data from iPhone 8 starting to sync to iCloud (volume of Health data in iCloud is growing substantially); 2) After couple of hours (~3-6 hours period) all the Health data on iPhone 8 is getting gradually wiped out and being replaced by the data from iPhone 13 Pro Max. Step 2 repeats every time when I'm restoring historical Health data on the old iPhone and enabling iCloud sync. Historical Health data restored from iPhone 8 doesn't sync with iPhone 13 Pro Max. I'm really sad and humbled by impossibility to merge two data sets using such advanced and modern technology. I'm really looking forward to the solution how to get ALL my Health data whole again. Thank you in advance!

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities Meneczek,

I see that you have a question about using the Health app on two devices. I'd be happy to help.

First, in order for the data to sync across your devices, you'd need to be signed in to iCloud with the same Apple ID on both devices. If you're already signed in to both devices with the same Apple ID, take a look at the articles below with some additional information that can help.

Use the Health app on your iPhone or iPod touch
