[Feature Request] Health Connect integration
Hi, thank you for your work on this project!
I just wanted to point out a suggestion, which is to send the number of steps/kilometres to Health Connect, so that other health-related apps can access it. For instance, it would allow Smartspacer to display this data on its widget.
Some time ago I forked Pedometer and implemented it myself, so hopefully it can be of help in case it is implemented (I'm not really into android apps development so it's highly possible that it can be done way better, but maybe it can help so that's why I'm saying it).
Hey, thanks for the idea. It's interesting, and I see it as something other people would want to benefit from. But for now, since Stepsy is still very niche, I'm not going to implement it myself. Especially seeing that in your code you are interacting with one of Google's packages, while I have dropped almost all of that shit from my devices, except maybe for gms (google services) to have properly timed notifications lol.
I'm leaving this open, as someone may be interested in making a pull request with a proper opt-in implementation.
Hey, no problem! Thanks for your answer ✌️ I don't remember interacting with any Google package, isn't Health Connect an AOSP thing? Or what other package are you referring to?
No idea, maybe it's fine and I'm being too harsh. But once I noticed com.google there, I wanted to answer "hell no" hahah :D
If it is, I had no idea. I thought it was independent from Google. Where is this com.google thing you mention exactly?

com.google.android.healthconnect.controller
com.google.android.apps.healthdata
On my device (Pixel running GrapheneOS) I have com.android.healthconnect.controller and com.android.health.connect.backuprestore, which are system apps, so I guess that's the package Google ships to other devices?
