Importing activity data from other devices
For other sports hardware we are working with brands for full integration of Tymewear and until then, have solutions that enable you to import training data into Tymewear.
If your sports device does not yet provide compatibility with Tymewear, you can still synchronise your data. Follow these steps to import .fit file activity data. This will then synchronise / merge the data so that all data becomes available in the Tymewear Dashboard and Tymewear App.
Step 1: Use the Tymewear App to record your activity.
Step 2: At the same time, record your activity your other device.
Step 3: In the Tymewear Dashboard - locate the activity and then import the .fit file that was recorded on your other device.
Tip: Don’t forget, inside the Tymewear App you can connect external Bluetooth devices and capture the data in your activity. Keep in mind, external sensors need to stay in range of the smartphone during the activity.
Guides for exporting .fit files from other platforms
For external platforms, here are quick links for their FAQs or guides for exporting activity data as .fit files. Then follow the import steps above to connect this with your Tymewear activity.
Export .fit files for: Garmin Connect | Strava | Zwift | TrainerRoad | TrainingPeaks | Coros | Suunto | Stryd | Polar | Wahoo
Peloton: Unfortunately Peloton does not allow the direct export of activity data. There are some third-party apps that can export data, in this case you need a .fit file format and can follow the steps above. As an alternative, devices such as the DFC Data Broadcaster allow you to stream the Peloton power data and in the Tymewear App you can then connect as an external sensor to receive the data.
