Sleep Cycle Integration

Stream Sleep Cycle data. No Sleep Cycle API needed.

Sleep Cycle tracks sleep from the phone and writes sleep analysis and heart rate to Apple Health — and Sahha’s SDK reads them into your app as normalized biomarkers and sleep scores, alongside every other source.

How it works

Your users connect Sleep Cycle. Sahha does the rest.

This is your user’s side of the story — one screen, once. Sahha ingests every Sleep Cycle signal, normalizes, deduplicates, and delivers it to your service — raw, or as refined intelligence your product can act on.

On-device and permissioned

Sleep Cycle data is read on the user’s own device, only after they grant Apple Health permission — nothing syncs without consent.

One integration, every source

Permission is per data type, not per brand. Anything that writes to Apple Health — Sleep Cycle today, a new watch next year — flows through the same SDK with no extra prompt and no new code.

Data coverage

What Sleep Cycle syncs through Apple Health.

  • Request only what you need

    You choose exactly which of these signals to request from Apple Health — users are only ever prompted for those, which keeps opt-in rates high.

  • One schema, every source

    Sleep Cycle, Apple Watch, and Oura all return the same fields and units.

  • What crosses the bridge

    Sleep analysis and heart rate pass through Apple Health; some app-exclusive metrics may not.

Sleep Cycle writes sleep analysis (asleep and time in bed) and heart rate to Apple Health; detailed sleep-stage breakdown depends on your Sleep Cycle plan. It’s an iOS app, so its data lands in Apple Health — on Android, Sleep Cycle syncs to Google Fit rather than Health Connect.

Get more than just raw data

Sahha turns these signals into biomarkers, scores, archetypes, and insights — the modeling done for you.

Build vs. buy

Reading Apple Health yourself? Here’s the to-do list.

Everything on the left is yours to write, test, and maintain on iOS. Everything on the right, Sahha already did.

Every device
Build it yourself
  • Integrate Apple Health.
  • Handle iOS version differences.
  • Add Health Connect separately for Android.
With Sahha

One SDK covers Apple Health, Health Connect, and every cloud source.

Getting the data
Build it yourself
  • Write the HealthKit queries.
  • Request the right permissions.
  • Wire up background delivery.
With Sahha

The SDK handles queries, permissions, and background sync.

Keeping it clean
Build it yourself
  • Dedupe apps writing the same metric.
  • Map dozens of HealthKit types.
  • Reconcile against your Android sources.
With Sahha

Deduped, typed, one schema — one stream per user.

Turning it into insight
Build it yourself
  • Build a sleep model.
  • Build an activity model.
  • Hire a data scientist.
With Sahha

Scores, archetypes, and insights — built in.

Keeping it alive
Build it yourself
  • Apple changes a HealthKit API.
  • You find out in production.
With Sahha

We version the SDK. You never notice.

No Sleep Cycle developer account needed — Sahha reads what Sleep Cycle already writes to Apple Health on iOS.

Setup

Live in an afternoon, not a sprint.

  1. # Add the Sahha SDKnpm install sahha-react-native
    01

    Add the Sahha SDK

    Drop the Sahha SDK into your iOS app — or React Native or Flutter. The same SDK also covers Health Connect for your Android sources.

  2. 02

    Prompt for Apple Health permissions

    Call the SDK to show the native Apple Health consent sheet. The user chooses what to share — under your brand. It’s one prompt, ever: permission is per data type, not per brand, so every future source is already covered.

  3. Your app LIVE

    Sahha reads and delivers

    Once permission is granted, the SDK reads Sleep Cycle data from Apple Health in the background, normalizes it to one schema, and streams it to your app by webhook or API.

Most teams read live Sleep Cycle data the same day they add the SDK. The only per-source prerequisite: your user has Sleep Cycle’s Apple Health sync switched on — most source apps enable it by default.

Destinations

Route it into your stack.

Sahha streams every update to your webhook — and a step-by-step guide takes it the rest of the way into your database, CDP, or messaging tool.

FAQ

Sleep Cycle integration questions

How does Sahha get Sleep Cycle data?

Sleep Cycle writes sleep analysis and heart rate to Apple Health, and Sahha reads them from there with its mobile SDK — no Sleep Cycle API to integrate.

Does the Sleep Cycle integration work on Android?

Sahha reads Sleep Cycle through Apple Health on iOS. On Android, Sleep Cycle syncs to Google Fit rather than Health Connect, so cover Android users through a Health Connect source instead — all normalized to the same schema.

Do I need a mobile app to use the Sleep Cycle integration?

Yes. Because Sleep Cycle data lands in Apple Health on the user’s device, you embed the Sahha mobile SDK to read it. Cloud-only sources like Oura don’t need the SDK, but on-device sources like Sleep Cycle do.

Is the Sleep Cycle integration HIPAA and GDPR compliant?

Yes. Sahha is HIPAA and GDPR compliant and SOC 2 certified, and Sleep Cycle data flows through the same compliant pipeline as every other source.

More integrations

One API for every other source, too.

Add another wearable or app and the schema, webhooks, and scores are identical — no new pipeline to build.
