About Apple Health export
Apple's Health app has gathered what an iPhone, an Apple Watch and their apps measure since 2014. Tap your picture in Health, then Export All Health Data, and it writes export.zip, which grows by years of steps, heart rate and sleep, often to gigabytes.
Inside apple_health_export, export.xml holds every record as a line of XML with its type, value, unit, times and source, each workout with its statistics, and each day's activity rings. Beside it, workout-routes holds each outdoor workout's route as GPX, electrocardiograms each Apple Watch ECG as a CSV, and export_cda.xml and clinical-records what health records the phone fetched.
Filepeek reads export.xml in one pass, however big, and shows each kind of record with its count, unit and dates, your workouts with their time, distance and energy, and how often you closed your rings. Each kind of record opens as a table you can sort, filter and save, each route on the map and each ECG in the trace viewer, its patient details hidden until you ask.

Questions
How do I export my Apple Health data?
In the Health app, tap your picture at the top, then Export All Health Data. It takes a while, then you can save export.zip to Files or send it to a computer.
My export.xml is too big to open. Will it work here?
Yes. Filepeek reads it in one pass as it unpacks, without holding it whole, and makes a kind's table only when you open it.
Can I see my heart rate or steps as a spreadsheet?
Yes. Each kind of record opens as a table with its times, value, unit and source, which you can sort and filter and save as CSV or Excel.
Can I open my Apple Watch ECGs?
Yes. Each ECG in the export opens in the trace viewer as its lead over time, with its classification and sample rate.
Can I see the health records from my doctors?
Yes. The records Health fetched from your providers, in its clinical-records folder, open together as one record of your problems, medicines, allergies, results and vaccines, and each one alone as FHIR.
Is my health data uploaded?
No. The export is read in your browser and stays on your device.
