Enable merging workouts from different sources (detect duplicates)

I have to track workouts on two apps to get benefits from my health insurance (Vitality). They need workouts logged directly by Apple Fitness in Apple Health, not third party integrated workouts.
If there’s no integration possible with Vitality points directly, please can you enable workouts over the same timeframe to be merged (e.g. Apple workout on Watch with HR zones + Bevel workout on iPhone with exercise info) so that exertion info is not duplicated.

Comparing duplicate training data

For example, if users use an Apple watch and a Garmin device and both Apple Health and the Garmin account are integrated, then activities are double in Bevel. A setting that synchronizes duplicate activities and deletes one would be great
Leah
Hi Henning Berger Have you tried customizing your data sources? Go to your profile → Data Sources → Health Data, and hide any sources you don’t want included. I’ll also add duplicate activity detection to our feedback board, but this can serve as a helpful workaround in the meantime.

Merge 2 activities from différents sources together (Garmin & Bevel)

Louis Victor Morgaut
When I work out, I start the activity on both Garmin and Bevel.
At the end, I end up with 2 separate activities in Bevel, and both impact my effort score.
To get accurate data, I currently have to delete one of them and choose between Garmin heart rate data or Bevel workout data.
Ideally, I’d like these 2 activities to be merged into a single one, with workout data coming from Bevel and heart rate data coming from Garmin.

Recording a weight session on bevel, but also with garmin, creates two separate workouts. But both have valuable information that the other doesn’t have (bevel reps and weight, garmin heart rate etc) so the ability to merge the data would be great to avoid having two entries or losing information

Workout merging

I have a watch that is not Apple Watch. When I record strength workout on them, it appears with calorie and bpm tracking but without my sets (obviously). Because of it I also track my workout with the workout builder in bevel app live while training. But no even tho I record both of them at the same time, in the app 2 workouts appear and double my real score. I am swear that I can add my sets to any workout post factum, but it is not very convenient and I loose my test and set time. It would be really helpful if app asked me if I want to merge two of the workouts that was logged at the same time by watch and via app and it would use bpm and calorie data from watch and set data from bevel. Thanks

Smart Workout De-duplication and Merging (Apple Health / Strava Sync)
J
Jakub Jóźwiak
I frequently encounter an issue where a single workout appears twice in my Bevel feed. For example, when I complete a run using the "Runna" app or a strength session via "Motra", the activity syncs to Apple Health but also syncs to Strava, resulting in Bevel pulling in two separate workout entries for the exact same time block.
Even if Bevel's underlying algorithm is smart enough to avoid double-counting the Strain for these overlapping sessions, the UI does not communicate this. Seeing two workouts makes me doubt the reliability of my daily Strain and Recovery scores.
Proposed solutions:
- Intelligent Auto-Merging: The app should automatically detect workouts with matching/overlapping timestamps and merge them into a single visual entry in the feed.
- Manual Merging: Provide an option to manually link or merge duplicate workouts in the UI.
- Visual Reassurance (Quick Fix): If the backend is already deduplicating the data for Strain calculation, please add a visual indicator (e.g., a "Merged" icon, or a note saying "Overlapping workouts - Strain calculated once"). Knowing that I can trust the data is crucial for relying on the app.

Hi Jakub Jóźwiak To avoid duplicate entries, you can hide data sources. Go to Profile → Data Source.

Activity Tru-up
H
Hein
I have Garmin Connect linked to Apple Health.
I have Garmin Connect linked to Bevel.
This leads to the same exercise activity being counted twice on the same daily timeline - see attached screenshot.
The quick fix would be to disconnect Garmin from Bevel - but a better fix would be a process of tru-up.
This is necessary in a world where increasingly, multiple wearables or devices are being used simultaneously
Leah
Hi Hein I’ll submit merging data as a feature request. In the meantime, you can hide specific data sources to prevent duplicate workouts from appearing. Please follow the steps below.
- Open Bevel.
- Tap your initials or profile picture in the top-right corner.
- Tap Data Sources.
- Select the health category you want to manage.
- Tap Hide Data Sources.
- Select the sources you want to hide.
- Tap Save.
