How do I connect my watch or Strava to Trait?

You set up connections directly in the app: On the home screen, go to Settings → Connections at the top, pick your service and confirm the connection with the respective provider.

Among others, you can connect:

• Apple Health / Apple Watch
• Garmin
• Strava
• Polar, Coros, Suunto, Fitbit and other services

Once the connection is set up, Trait does a one-time import of your activities from the last three months. After that, new activities arrive automatically – normally within seconds to minutes after you save them on your watch. To find out exactly how this works and what you can do about delays, see My activity hasn't shown up in Trait.

What's free and what's Pro?

• Importing (watch or service → Trait) via one connection is free.
• A second simultaneous connection (e.g. Polar and Strava) is Pro – see Can I connect two services at the same time?
• Exporting planned workouts to your watch (Trait → watch) is Pro and works with Garmin and the Apple Watch.

If connecting doesn't work right away, try again a bit later. If the error persists, get in touch with us and include the exact wording of the message.
