Which Devices and Apps Work with ROXFIT? The Complete Compatibility Guide
Which Devices and Apps Work with ROXFIT? The Complete Compatibility Guide
Most HYROX athletes train with more than one device. A Garmin on the wrist, Strava on the phone, Apple Health running in the background. The question we get asked constantly is: does ROXFIT connect to mine?
Here is the definitive answer.
What ROXFIT connects to
ROXFIT connects to three kinds of watch (Garmin, Apple Watch and Wear OS) and three apps (Strava, Apple Health and Health Connect). Every connection is set up in the same place: tap You in the bottom-right corner, tap the settings cog in the top-right corner, then tap Connected apps and devices.
Which watch works depends on your phone. iPhone supports Garmin and Apple Watch. Android supports Garmin and Wear OS. Apple Watch can't be used with an Android phone, and a Wear OS watch can't be used with an iPhone.
Garmin
Does ROXFIT work with Garmin? Yes.
Connect your Garmin account, then install the ROXFIT app on your watch from Garmin Connect IQ. You can run ROXFIT workouts and your Race Goals plan from your wrist, start a Free Train session straight from the watch, and completed sessions sync back into ROXFIT.
Not every Garmin can run the ROXFIT app. Check your model on the ROXFIT app's Connect IQ page. If your watch isn't listed there, it can't run the ROXFIT app, but everything else in ROXFIT still works on your phone.
How to connect:
- Tap You > settings cog > Connected apps and devices
- Tap Garmin, sign in to Garmin Connect, and switch both permission toggles on
- Install the ROXFIT app from Garmin Connect IQ on your phone

Apple Watch
Does ROXFIT work with Apple Watch? Yes.
The ROXFIT watch app comes with the iPhone app, and your watch connects automatically as long as it's paired to the same iPhone. You need watchOS 10 or later, which means Apple Watch Series 4 or later, any Apple Watch SE, or any Apple Watch Ultra.
How to connect:
- Make sure the ROXFIT app is installed on your Apple Watch via the Watch app on your iPhone
- Tap You > settings cog > Connected apps and devices > Apple Watch

Wear OS
Does ROXFIT work with Wear OS? Yes.
ROXFIT runs on Wear OS watches paired to an Android phone. Pixel Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch4 and later are the common ones. The watch app installs separately, from the Play Store on your watch.
How to connect:
- Pair your watch to your phone in its companion app (for example Galaxy Wearable for Samsung)
- Install ROXFIT on the watch from the Play Store
- Tap You > settings cog > Connected apps and devices > Wear OS

Apple Health (iOS)
Does ROXFIT work with Apple Health? Yes.
On iPhone, ROXFIT connects to Apple Health to import and export workout data. This keeps your activity history consistent across apps without re-entering anything manually.
How to connect:
- Tap You > settings cog > Connected apps and devices
- Tap Apple Health and grant the required permissions
Health Connect (Android)
Does ROXFIT work with Health Connect? Yes.
On Android, ROXFIT connects to Health Connect (Google's health data platform) in the same way. Import and export workout data across apps.
How to connect:
- Make sure Health Connect is installed on your Android device
- Tap You > settings cog > Connected apps and devices
- Tap Health Connect and grant the required permissions
Strava
Does ROXFIT work with Strava? Yes!
ROXFIT syncs your completed workouts and race results to Strava, including heart rate for ROXFIT workouts.
How to connect ROXFIT to Strava
- Tap You in the bottom-right corner.
- Tap the settings cog in the top-right corner.
- Tap Connected apps and devices.
- Tap Strava.
- Tap the orange Connect with Strava button at the bottom of the screen.
- Authorise ROXFIT to connect to your Strava account.
- You'll be redirected to a confirmation page in your browser. Once confirmed, return to the app.
That's it. Your ROXFIT workouts and HYROX races will now post to Strava automatically.
What ROXFIT does not support
These are the devices and platforms we get asked about most. None of them are currently supported.
Device / Platform | Status |
|---|---|
Samsung Galaxy Watch3, Active2 and earlier (these run Tizen, not Wear OS) | Not supported |
Huawei watches | Not supported |
Amazfit (all models) | Not supported |
Coros (Pace 3, Vertix, etc.) | Not supported |
Suunto (Race, 9 Peak, etc.) | Not supported |
Polar (Vantage V3, Grit X, etc.) | Not supported |
Whoop | Not supported |
Fitbit / Google Fit | Not supported |
Wahoo (ELEMNT, TICKR) | Not supported |
Withings | Not supported |
Oura Ring | Not supported |
If your device is on this list, you can still use ROXFIT fully. Race results, training plans, Race Goals, and HYPE all work without a connected device. You will just need to log workouts manually if you train on one of these platforms.
Why the list is short
ROXFIT is built for HYROX athletes, not for the entire fitness market. That means we build integrations that are actually useful for how HYROX athletes train and race, rather than ticking a compatibility box with every device on the market.
The integrations that exist are built deeply. Garmin, Apple Watch, Wear OS and the apps they connect to cover the majority of athletes who compete in HYROX events. When new integrations are added, they will be driven by where HYROX athletes actually are.
