Oculus Move is now partnering with Apple Health to bring more progress reports and fitness statistics to sync with one's data to and from the VR device and completely capture a person's development. It means that the data coming from the Apple Watch will come to the Oculus Move app and would register as a person's track for the day, even without using the VR experience.

Oculus Move updated its application, and it is with the many features coming to the service. One of the most significant ones centered on integrating the Apple Health application that will sync one's data when using the VR without the Cupertino giant's app, especially when forgetting to input them on the mobile tracker. 

The need to input one's track and progress gets an answer from Oculus, and it would automatically feed data to the Apple Health app for the workout done via the Move platform. The data in each activity will arrive at the Apple Health app and register as a form of exercise, ensuring that progress is available on the app.

Oculus, Apple Health, Fitness Apps

Oculus is one of the places to try for an immersive fitness experience that people can focus on, especially when they think that regular workouts are getting boring or repetitive. There are a lot of apps, games, and experiences that offer unique moxie for all their fitness needs, focusing on its offers that would get a person active and entertained. 

On the other hand, the growth rate of iOS and iPhone users that pair their devices with an Apple Watch is a massive indication that people want to monitor their health through the app. Apple Health in iOS 15 offers many features that would help in checking in on one's progress and help them focus on their wellness. 

Other fitness apps and wearable tech are available now, but the partnership between Oculus Move and Apple Health is a significant help to those that use both services for their needs. Despite forgetting to use the VR or Apple Health's workout features, users can sync its data to provide progress to their daily routines, without missing out on it.
