Read from the source
With PocketBridge active and your iPhone unlocked, tools can request supported Apple Health records directly. Collection isn’t required.

Illustrated request path. No personal data on this page.
A clear route to your records
Live when your phone can answer.
Honest when it can’t.
Use a saved copy
If the source can’t answer, a completed local snapshot can provide an older copy. Its source and collection time travel with the result.
Reach your server
Optional uploaded records can stay available while the phone is away. An older copy is reported as an older copy.
You choose the connection
Your records.
Your reader.
Choose what PocketBridge can read in Apple Health, then pair your MCP client with a short-lived, single-use code generated in the app.
Set up your connection- Read-only by design
- PocketBridge reads HealthKit. It doesn’t write or delete your original Health records.
- Explicit sharing
- Collection and upload are separate actions. Pairing a tool doesn’t start a bulk upload.
- Limits you can see
- Runtime type support, record source, collection time and incomplete results are explicit. Public HealthKit access does not mean every Health app screen is available.
- Foreground live access
- Keep the app open and the phone unlocked for direct reads. iOS can suspend the app in the background.
Connect to your personal server
One bridge. A familiar address.
