What Soma reads

Soma reads only what you allow, and you can change it at any time.

Apple Health

The categories you turned on in the Health permission sheet: sleep, heart, activity, body measurements and so on. Soma reads them. It writes to Health only what you log yourself, and only if you allowed it. Give Soma access to Apple Health shows how to change the list.

Your iPhone's motion

Steps and movement from your iPhone's own motion sensor, so Soma has something to go on even without a watch.

Location and calendar

Both are optional, and Soma asks for them at setup.

• Location is asked for weather and daylight. Soma doesn't read it yet. Daylight comes from Apple Watch, through Health.
• Calendar lets the Mind pages line up your meetings with your stress. Soma reads your events on your iPhone to do it.

Turn either off in Settings > Privacy & Security on your iPhone.

Seeing it all

In Soma, open Settings (the person icon at the top left), then Health access under Data. It shows Apple Health, your iPhone's motion, your watch and the devices that reach Soma through Health. The Vault shows every reading itself.
