Source Data saved in study app
Health Kit (only access to the listed data is preset in the study app) Number of stepsa

Number of stairs

Walking distance, ma

Mean heart rate, beats per mina

Number of standing up events
Core Motion (preprocessed data from motion sensors) Walking time, s

Stationary time, s

Exercise time (physically active, more than walking), s

Automotive time, s

Cycling time, s
Core Location Relevant position changes, leaving home location (no continuous data recording; position accuracy: 500 m)b
Accelerometer and gyroscope raw data Heart rate during activity, beats per minute

aSteps, walking distance, and mean heart rate per min are also saved in the 6-min walk distance app.

bLeaving home location means leaving the 500 m circle that is flagged as home. Daily physical activities over a distance <500 m are detected through steps and raw accelerometer and barometer data.
