What is Apple Health Integration?
Using Pumpe with the Apple Health app on iPhone empowers you to better manage your health. Your pumping sessions and milk expression data automatically sync with Apple Health, creating a comprehensive picture of your postpartum health and lactation journey.
Pumpe uses Apple Health's lactation datapoint to record every pumping session—volume expressed, duration, and timing. This standardized health data can be shared with your lactation consultant or healthcare provider, synced across your devices, and kept secure with the same encryption that protects all your health information.
