Health Assist

Apple Health → Home Assistant, without a cloud service.

Health Assist is a free, open-source Home Assistant integration and companion iOS app. The app reads Apple Health with HealthKit and pushes the data over a local webhook. Home Assistant exposes it as native sensors and long-term statistics.

Why

• Local-first — no analytics, no telemetry, no vendor cloud.
• Full history — the first sync exports all available Apple Health history, not just a snapshot.
• Future updates — live syncs, hourly HealthKit background delivery and a weekly fallback keep the data current.
• Two phones, one HA — each iPhone is a separate config entry with its own webhook, device and entities.
• HACS-friendly — one custom repository, no YAML.

Quick start

1. Install the Home Assistant integration.
2. Add a device and scan the QR code from the iOS app.
3. Grant Apple Health access and run the first sync.

Project status

Health Assist is pre-1.2 and actively developed. The webhook and long-term statistics path are working end to end. Workouts, ECG and clinical records are not yet exported.

The integration domain remains apple_health_sync and the iOS bundle identifier remains uk.rebecchi.applehealthsync so existing installs survive rebrands.
