    Health data will definitely be uploaded to China. Not sure why you got negged. I have a watch myself and dont really care about it. If US wants my data they need to sell the device for cheaps. Cant pay 600$ for apple or sammy and still upload the data to them.

      Health data will definitely be uploaded to China.

      Only if you want it to be. There is no need to be connected to sync your data.

          @John Doh: From memory, you do have to create an account with the app, so it may well be sneakily uploading your data when you connect, but if you're a privacy nazi, just use that phone you dumped in the drawer, when you updated to your new phone 😁

          Only reason to use the app live is if you don't want to use the built-in GPS on the device, and want location tracking for your exercise routines.

        So is the boring repetitive claptrap some people find humorous!

    How ironic, and rather stupid!

    If you got a Fitbit, all your datas belong to us as you have to be connected to even retrieve your data (this was the case a couple years ago at any rate).

    To get your Huawei data, you don't even have to be online, and the data is stored locally on your phone.

    Also, unlike my last Fitbit (Charge 3), you don't need to turn on location services to sync your data.

    Only thing I don't like is that you need to have the app running to do this. Probably the same for all these devices, though.

    I use a pair of headphones with control buttons on them, so don't need watch control.

      drprox on 17/10/2023 - 11:18

      Ah fair enough. Yeah I have headphone controls, just thought watch might be a bit better but seems you can't scroll through folders or albums.

  I have a Huawei Band 8 I got from AliExpress I'm using with an Android phone, just a heads up it can only pass data to the Adidas Running and Komoot apps, and of course Huawei Health.

  The Huawei Health app required to run the band has to be side loaded, as they're banned by the US government from doing business with any US company, therefore they're not on Google Play Store.

  It also requires an active mobile number to create an account and access to phone, local devices, and GPS to pair the band.

  The software will ask for further permissions and nag you on the regular to store data in the cloud.

  I disabled all but local devices and physical activity after pairing and it seems to still do health tracking fine, plus it can still vibrate on phonecall.

  But you need to allow access to phone and messages for it to properly display phonecalls and display messages.

  Overall, the hardware is good, the software is efficient and only uses about 1% battery, but it's really hamstrung by not working with popular apps like Strava even if you're if you're ok with the privacy concerns.

    P.S. Also as far as I'm aware, all these health devices gather private data, if you want to go the privacy route, you need go with something like GadgetBridge and a compatible watch/band.
