Hey all,

I have all my Apple health data on my main phone and backed up to iCloud.

I have another phone I didn’t sync my health data to initially. However a few days ago I enabled it in iCloud. After many hours it finally restored the health data, but a lot was missing. My main phone has health data going back to 2015. However the second iPhone only has data going back to 2020.

Is the phone still working on data in the background so it might take longer to all appear or could there be an issue with the data in iCloud?

Thanks.

there have been quite a few posts in the AW forum about "losing" health data when upgrading OS or getting a new watch, I'd say be patient for ~ a week, if your main phone still shows all the data, it'll eventually sync to you other one

It's great to hear it should eventually fully sync. I would be very disappointed if so much data ended up getting lost. It just seems strange the Health app indicated it had finished syncing everything. Hopefully it is still doing something in the background.
