The Day One iOS app supports integration with the Apple Health app with these features:
- Recording the time you spent on journaling in the Day One app as the Mindfulness time in the Apple Health app.
- When you create an entry, import your step count from the Apple Health app into the Day One app.
These features are available on iPhones.
Mindfulness Minutes
To track Mindfulness Minutes in the Apple Health app, follow these steps:
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Select Health > Data Acces & Devices, and select Day One.
- Tap the Turn On All button to enable the Day One app’s access to the Mindfulness Minutes data in the Apple Health app.

Step Count
To automatically add the step count when you create an entry in the app:
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Select Day One.
- Enable the Motion & Fitness option.

If the entry doesn’t automatically add your step count, even if you have the Motion & Fitness option enabled, tapping Step Count in the entry metadata and the Add Step Count button will add the data to the entry.
