“Health Data” app, not the Health app.


I have set up nothing in the Health app. I did not want any health apps on my devices but when I deleted the Health app it was replaced by Health Data app. The “Health Data” app is still recording “resting” data every day, several times daily.

What is this Health Data app and how can I stop this recording? It occurs without my knowledge or consent and feels very intrusive and unwelcome.


iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

It is an app listed in settings. It appeared after I deleted the Health app - I have no idea where it came from other than from Apple.

It has finally stopped recording data. It was recording testing energy - expended calories - or something like that. I deleted all the daily data is was recording every time I thought about it. Anyway it doesn’t seem to be recording anymore. Why that is I have no idea. Thanks for your reply. Since it is not recording anymore I guess my problem is solved 😀
