IOS 8 Health data: backup and iCloud

backuphealth.app

I hat to bring in my iPhone for repair and I backed up all the data on iCloud and with iTunes (just to be sure). I then got a replacement phone for one week.

I was not able to recover my Health data:

  • The data seems not to be synchronised with iCloud (no other device as my iPad or the replacement phone see anything)

  • The data was not backed up. I got everything back but for the Health data

Is there a way to back Health data up?

Looks like you need to encrypt your iPhone backups for your local backups to retain health data:
