Share an activity to a third party app [Wahoo app]

The Wahoo app can share completed activity summaries (as .FIT files) with a variety of third party app partners. 

Third party apps available for workout sharing

How a third party app partner is connected to the Wahoo app/your Wahoo account will differ by app partner. Some of the most popular app partners can be connected by authorizing their connection to the Wahoo app in Wahoo app Settings.  Others can be connected by linking your Wahoo account in the partner's app or web interface. This process will differ between partner apps.

Authorize a third party app

Authorize in the Wahoo app

Some of the most popular apps can be authorized in the Wahoo app > Today > Settings > Authorized apps. For details on the authorization process, see Authorize an app partner to sync routes, planned workouts, completed rides, or segments.

Authorize in the partner app / web interface

Other, mostly more newly connected apps / services are connected through the Wahoo Cloud API. To connect these apps / services to your Wahoo account, authorize your Wahoo account in the partner's app or web interface, using the email and password used to log in to the Wahoo app.

Because the authorization process will differ between app partners, we suggest reviewing the app partner's interface, support documentation, and consulting their support team for how best to connect your Wahoo account.

Share a completed activity

Auto-sharing

All third party apps authorized in the Wahoo app can be toggled to auto-share a .FIT file of an activity when it is completed in the Wahoo app or uploaded to the Wahoo app from the ELEMNT ACE.  Auto-sharing is toggled off by default.

This is enabled in Settings > Authorized apps > chosen app

All third party apps authorized in the partner app / web interface are automatically shared to the third party partner when an activity is uploaded to the Wahoo Cloud.  Because the app connection is controlled in the third party app interface, auto-upload cannot be toggled off.

Manual sharing

If auto-sharing has not been enabled for a third party service (auto-sharing is set to off by default), or if an activity is completed while the app is does not have an internet connection, you can manually share an activity by:

  1. Navigating to the History tab of the Wahoo app.
  2. Locating the activity from among the activities in the reverse chronological order of the History tab.  You can use the filters to shorten the list.
  3. Select the three dots in the upper right corner of the activity's summary panel.
  4. Select Sharing.
  5. Select Share next to the app partner you wish to share the activity file to.

Troubleshooting

Deauthorize / Reauthorize an app

If a workout is not automatically sharing to a 3rd party app that you have authorized and will not if you attempt to manually re-share, the first step to resolving this should be to deauthorize and reauthorize the app to reset the connection between Wahoo and the app.

For apps authorized in the Wahoo app

Navigate to the app, select the down arrow to the right to expand the section, and then select Deauthorize

The app should return to the Available apps list, where you can select it and reauthorize it.

For apps authorized in the partner app / web interface

Because the authorization process will differ between app partners, we suggest reviewing the app partner's interface, support documentation, and consulting their support team for how best to disconnect/reconnect your Wahoo account.

 

If an app will still not upload a workout after deauthorizing and reauthorizing a third party app, please submit a support request.
