ChatGPT could soon tap into Apple Health data for personalised wellness insights

This move could transform ChatGPT from a general-purpose conversational tool into a personalised wellness guide.

OpenAI is reportedly preparing a deeper integration of ChatGPT with iOS, allowing the app to tap into Apple Health metrics.

This move could transform ChatGPT from a general-purpose conversational tool into a personalised wellness guide.

Hidden code and icons discovered in the iOS app suggest the AI could soon read data on activity, sleep, fitness, and other health metrics.

The feature is only available for developers, hints at a world where your AI understands your habits before you even ask.

Currently, ChatGPT answers wellness, fitness, or sleep-related questions based on general knowledge.

With Apple Health integration, the responses could become far more precise.

Instead of generic tips, ChatGPT could provide insights rooted in your own data, turning abstract advice into something practical for your daily routine.

Although OpenAI has not confirmed specifics, the expected approach would likely involve:

User opt-in: You would explicitly allow ChatGPT to access selected Apple Health metrics.

Selective data access: Only approved categories like sleep, steps, workouts, or heart rates would be read.

Contextualised suggestions: The AI could generate advice based on the real patterns it observes in your health data.

This system would create a seamless bridge between your health-tracking devices and the AI assistant, removing the need to manually enter metrics or analyse charts yourself.

However, ChatGPT cannot replace medical advice; professional guidance is still necessary for serious health concerns.
