Apple Watch Guide to Setup

We are so happy that you’ve joined the Nuvita program. You’re already on your way to becoming a Better YOU. You are enrolled in the Nuvita CARDIO and this guide will give you instructions on how to get started with that program.

Here are the things that you’ll need to get started:

1. Access to a computer and smartphone:

You’ll use your computer and/or smartphone to access your MyNuvita dashboard. The dashboard is available either as an app on your smartphone OR a website: www.mynuvita.com.

If you have a smartphone, download the MyNuvita app now and log in using the credentials you created during enrollment.

2. An Apple Watch:

You will use the Apple Watch to analyze your workout progress, as the monitor tracks your heart rate during your workouts.

The Apple Watch will connect to your Nuvita app using the iPhone "Health Kit".

Set Up Your Cardio Device:

Smartphone + Apple Watch

Step 1: Open your myNuvita App

Open the www.mynuvita.com or the myNuvita app. On the bottom right hand corner, tap the "More" button. On the "More" screen, toggle on "Health Integration". You will be prompted to allow my Nuvita to "read" and "write" data to HealthKit.

Step 2: Enable Health Integration

You will be directed to a "Health Access" screen that allows myNuvita to read and write data to the Health App. Tap “All Categories On” to enable all of the data. This must be done in order for the integration to work correctly.

If you accidentally tap “Don’t Allow” you will need to go into iOS settings > Privacy > Health > myNuvita > and Allow the app to read & write to the health app. Please see the troubleshooting section for a walkthrough.

Step 3: Get Your Workout:

1. Tap the Workout app on your Apple watch.

2. Select your workout type for the best accuracy.

3 Tap the “Start” button to begin your workout.

4 Force touch your watch screen to display the “End” buttons.

5 Tap the “End” button to finish your workout.

6 Scroll down to the bottom and tap the “Save” button to complete your workout.

Step 4: Saving Your Workout in the App

Open myNuvita to automatically trigger a sync. After myNuvita has successfully added a workout to your weekly progress you will see a notification.

NOTE: You need to open myNuvita within 7 days of completing a workout on your apple watch.* Opening the myNuvita app will trigger a sync automatically without you having to do anything.

Option B: Pair a Bluetooth Monitor with Your Apple Watch

For the most accurate heart rate data you can pair a bluetooth cardio monitor to your Apple Watch. Tap the settings icon.

Tap “Bluetooth”. Tap on your cardio monitor once it is recognized by your Watch.

Confirm that your cardio monitor displays that it is “Connected” and go into the Apple workout app to begin your workout.

Troubleshooting:

1. Tap the iOS "Settings" icon.

2. Tap "Privacy"

3. Tap "Health"

4. Tap "myNuvita"

5. Make sure "myNuvita" has read and write access to everything.
