Connect the Polar Flow app to Health Connect to share compatible Polar steps with Pacer.
Polar device → Polar Flow → Health Connect → Pacer
1. Sync with Polar Flow
Open Polar Flow on the same Android phone as Pacer and sync your device.
This guide uses Polar Flow, not the Polar Beat app or the name of a specific watch.
2. Enable Health Connect
- Open Polar Flow's General settings from its menu or More section.
- Enable Health Connect.
- Select the sharing permissions and tap Allow. Ensure that Steps write access is enabled.
- Sync new activity from your Polar device.
Polar lists daily Steps among its exports and says new data is shared after connection. Do not expect this setup to transfer your entire earlier history. See Polar's Health Connect instructions.
3. Complete setup in Pacer
Activate Health Connect, then select Polar in Choose Wearables. After completing Flow's setup, return to Pacer and start the source check.
Review the list and follow the priority instructions. Choose Polar Flow if that is the app writing the steps you want Pacer to favor.
If Polar is missing from the source list
Sync new activity after enabling sharing and check whether Health Connect contains Steps from Polar Flow.
Pacer's source list is based on recent step records, not just permission grants or workout records. If steps are present in Health Connect but missing in Pacer, follow Sync troubleshooting.
