How often does health sharing update?

I recently bought my Mom an apple watch series 8, because I was worried about her health. She turned on sharing for me and I have a question about the frequency..


Does anyone know how frequently health data is shared? I don't know if it's on a schedule or what triggers the updates.


Thanks for any info!

See 'About Health sharing' section in:

Share and view health data in the Health app - Apple Support

If a friend or family member chooses to share their health data with you, you can also receive notifications when there are changes to their health data.

Q: How frequently is the data updated?


A: After a user elects to share portions of their Health app data with a participating organization, any new data collected in the Health app is automatically uploaded to Apple’s Health Sharing Cloud approximately once every 24 hours, depending on factors such as whether the user’s iPhone is connected to the internet.
