What AirPulse deliberately does not store

No workout saved to Apple Fitness. No calorie tracking

Not saved to Apple Fitness

Your AirPulse session stays in AirPulse and is not saved as a workout in Apple Fitness. Your Apple Fitness rings remain completely unaffected

No calorie tracking

AirPulse does not read, calculate, display, or store calorie values, including in Apple Health

From AirPods connection to saved session

Shortcuts starts the recording. AirPulse shows your current heart rate during the session and saves the history afterwards. Pro adds personal reports for session tags

Local sessions, optional iCloud backup

Where AirPulse stores your data

The session database is stored locally on your device. AirPulse does not operate its own upload server. When iCloud is available for your Apple Account, the app can store a backup copy there and sync selected settings

  • Local session database Sessions are stored in a database on your device. When iCloud is available for your Apple Account, an additional backup copy may be stored there
  • Location history only when enabled Location points are saved only when Pro is active and you have enabled location history for the current session tag
  • Apple services under Apple’s terms HealthKit, iCloud, Apple Maps, StoreKit, Shortcuts, and Live Activities depend on Apple permissions, system availability, and the applicable Apple terms
