Note: this restriction is limited to THIRD PARTY data, so:

Strava -> Apple Health, still works

Garmin/Fitbod/3rd party app -> Strava -> Apple Health, no longer syncs.

IMHO this is better for me because now I don’t have duplicates in Apple Health and can sync to both services. But to each they’re own I guess.

I think this can make sense. The recording devices ideally should have their own integrations with Apple Health so the source pushes to all the data repos rather than repos chaining the data along.

Wonder if this includes third party sensor data that’s tracked with Strava. Like if I use a chest strap and record into Strava, will the exported data include the sensor data or is that considered “third party”

Why not let users chose to enable/disable?

[Gigachad]

Because users don't choose. They just delete the app and complain that its buggy/clunky.

Presumably because keeping the link up costs time and money.

yeah strava (understandably) wants to upsell you on premium features in the app, they don’t just want to be some middleman for your Garmin app
