Testing HealthKit Type Identifiers
So I wanted to see what kind of HealthKit data types I could read which were measured from the iWatch. I tried reading every possible data type in HKTypeIdentifiers:
[NSSet setWithObjects:
//Body Measurements
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBodyMassIndex ], // Scalar(Count), Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBodyFatPercentage ], // Scalar(Percent, 0.0 - 1.0), Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeight ], // Length, Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBodyMass ], // Mass, Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierLeanBodyMass ], // Mass, Discrete
// Fitness
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierStepCount ], // Scalar(Count), Cumulative
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierDistanceWalkingRunning], // Length, Cumulative
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierDistanceCycling ], // Length, Cumulative
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierDistanceWheelchair ], // Length, Cumulative
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBasalEnergyBurned ], // Energy, Cumulative
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierActiveEnergyBurned ], // Energy, Cumulative
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierFlightsClimbed ], // Scalar(Count), Cumulative
//[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierNikeFuel ], // Scalar(Count), Cumulative
//[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierAppleExerciseTime ], // Time Cumulative
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierPushCount ], // Scalar(Count), Cumulative
// Vitals
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeartRate ], // Scalar(Count)/Time, Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBodyTemperature ], // Temperature, Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBasalBodyTemperature ], // Basal Body Temperature, Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBloodPressureSystolic ], // Pressure, Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierBloodPressureDiastolic], // Pressure, Discrete
[HKQuantityType quantityTypeForIdentifier:HKQuantityTypeIdentifierRespiratoryRate ], // Scalar(Count)/Time, Discrete
];
Not all of the data types returned results, but here’s what I was able to pull out:
