Exporting data for health

I successfully downloaded my data from my phone, but the resultant files (after unzipping) are 729 MB (export.xml) and 198 MB (export_cda.xml). The first is the actual data, and I don't know what to do with the second. But they are so gigantic I can't really manipulate them as I try to learn what to do with an xml file, and applications can't open them. I've been able to open them only with TextEdit.) Is there a way to ask for subsets of the data in the first place? If I just cut them up into smaller files (which will take forever) I don't know what to do with them to make the resultant file usable. Any direction would be helpful.

Many thanks, Kevin

Hi there!

It sounds like you want to export and view your health data. We’d be glad to assist. 

Your health data is exported in XML format, which can be opened by an application like Microsoft Excel or any other application that can open XML files. The ‘Export and share your health data’ section here has more information:

Share health and fitness data in Health on iPhone

We hope that helps!
