Huawei has often been criticized for its closed ecosystem, especially towards its connected watches. In response to this, the Chinese brand doubled down on its efforts and created Strava. Find out in this post how to sync your Huawei product with Strava.
The lack of third-party integrations has often been a source of dissatisfaction for smartwatch users. The Chinese brand Huawei has not been spared from this phenomenon. Eager to provide an optimal experience for its users, the company has taken these comments into consideration.
To counter this, Huawei watches have Strava, referred to as the latest integration. If earlier it was necessary to bypass the system with additional applications, Strava facilitates all actions.
But why is Strava so important for Huawei smartwatches? Intended rather for active people as well as sportsmen, watches were however very limited until recently, as users could not take advantage of its features.
There was also little point in using Huawei Health, as Huawei’s closed ecosystem made it impossible to sync data elsewhere. So, if you’re looking to sync your Huawei watch with Strava and take full advantage of its capabilities, learn everything you need to know in this post.
How to connect your Huawei watch and Strava?
In order to be able to connect your Huawei watch and Strava, there are some prerequisites that must be met. First, open the “Huawei Healh” app on your smartphone. Then, go to the “Me” tab and go to “Data sharing and authorization”.
Once inside the block, type “Strava” and log into your account. Once you complete these steps, your accounts will be linked automatically. All of your physical sessions will now be synced to Strava.
Which Huawei watches does Strava work on?
Basically, Starva will work no matter what model of Huawei smartwatch you are using. In fact, the integration is only done between Starva and the “Huawei Health” application. So whether you have an older model or the latest Huawei Watch Fit 2 or GT 3 Pro, it will sync. All you have to do is get started with your workouts and as long as your smartwatch is synced with Huawei Health, you’re good to go.
