Connect your web application to native health and fitness hardware sensors. Nativine Health Bridge integrates Google Health Connect (Android) and Apple HealthKit (iOS) for fitness, step tracking, heart rate, and wellness applications.
1. Overview & Health Metrics
Health Bridge enables web applications to request permission and read native health metrics from the OS storage vault:
- Activity & Steps: Daily step count, distance walked, active calories burned.
- Vitals & Heart Rate: Resting heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation (SpO2).
- Sleep & Wellness: Sleep duration and sleep stage logs.
- Privacy Vault: On iOS and Android 14+, health data resides in an encrypted OS vault requiring explicit user consent.
2. No-Code App Builder Setup Guide
⚡ Nativine Builder Feature: Health Bridge is integrated directly into the Nativine native app engine. Configure options natively in the App Builder under Add-ons & Plugins > Native UI.
Nativine App Builder Configuration
- Open the Nativine App Builder at /web-to-app-converter-pro.
- Click Add-ons & Plugins in the left builder menu and locate Health Bridge.

- Configure your required settings, permissions descriptors, or target web parameters.
- Click Save Config and navigate to the Builds tab to compile your mobile application.
3. Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)
Is HealthKit entitlement required for Apple App Store approval?
Yes. Apple strictly requires HealthKit permission entitlement flags in Info.plist and a clear explanation in your privacy policy. Nativine adds the required entitlements automatically when Health Bridge is enabled.
Does Android require Google Health Connect app installation?
On Android 14+, Health Connect is built directly into the OS. On Android 13 and below, the app prompts the user to download the Google Health Connect module from Play Store if not installed.
