# Syncing Macros from MacroFactor

MacroFactor doesn't connect directly to Apotheo, but you can sync your nutrition data through Apple Health. MacroFactor writes your macro and calorie data to Apple Health, and Apotheo reads it from there.

## How to Set Up

### Step 1: Enable Apple Health in MacroFactor

1. In the MacroFactor app, go to **Settings**
2. Enable **Apple Health** syncing
3. Allow MacroFactor to write nutrition data to Apple Health

### Step 2: Connect Apple Health Nutrition in Apotheo

1. Open the **Apotheo iOS app**
2. Go to **Settings > Integrations**
3. Under the **Nutrition** section, enable **Apple Health**
4. Allow Apotheo to read nutrition data from Apple Health

Your MacroFactor data will now flow through Apple Health to your Apotheo check-ins.

## What Data Syncs

- Calories
- Protein, Carbohydrates, Fat, Fiber
- Sodium, Potassium, Alcohol

## Requirements

- You must use the **Apotheo iOS app** — Apple Health data won't sync from a web browser
- Both MacroFactor and Apotheo need Apple Health permissions enabled
- MacroFactor must be set to write nutrition data to Apple Health

## Things to Know

- Since this syncs via Apple Health, it counts as your **nutrition tracker** — you won't be able to connect another nutrition app at the same time
- Data syncs when you open the Check-In section in the Apotheo app
- Make sure you log your food in MacroFactor before submitting your check-in
