New App - Copilot Health Gone?

So I've been using Copilot (now legacy version) and was enjoying the copilot health as it was able to pull in my wearable device information from my iOS (Garmin data to apple health then into Copilot health). Near the end of September 2026, I noted the app was grey and said legacy next to it. I then downloaded the new copilot app and deleted the legacy one.

So here is the question - What happened to copilot health? I also use the desktop version and it still has the copilot health. However, I am not able to pull any new data into the app because it used to be sync'd through the app on the phone but that is no longer there. I'm curious if it is gone, is there a way to import all of that historical data from iOS health app or Garmin app directly into Copilot?

TIA!

Copilot Health has not been permanently discontinued; it is temporarily unavailable in the updated iOS app during the unified Copilot transition, and wearable connections may return later than the core Health experience.^1^

What you can do now

  1. Continue using Copilot Health on Windows, Edge, or the web.
    • Sign in with the same personal Microsoft account associated with your Microsoft 365 subscription.
    • Open …More in the left navigation and select Health.
    • Microsoft says iOS support is coming, but does not provide a specific release date.^1^
  2. Wait for both features to reach the updated iOS app. There are two separate rollout stages:
    • Copilot Health itself must become available in the new iOS app.
    • Wearable and electronic-health-record connections may be enabled later.
    The unified-app migration documentation confirms that some features can be temporarily unavailable or have functionality gaps during rollout.^2^
  3. When Health appears on iOS, use the same Microsoft account as before. Check …More > Health, then look in the Health experience for the connected-data-source option. Reconnection may be required after the connector becomes available, but Microsoft has not documented the exact reconnection process for this transition.

Historical Apple Health or Garmin data

There is currently no documented manual import method for uploading an Apple Health export or Garmin export directly into Copilot Health. Microsoft also does not document whether the restored Apple Health connection will backfill all historical records or only expose a limited period. Keep the original data in Apple Health and Garmin rather than deleting or modifying it while waiting for the connector.

Copilot Health did not store the underlying wearable records itself. It accessed connected wearable data when generating insights. It separately stores Copilot Health conversations and information saved in your Health Profile.^1^ Consequently:

  • Seeing the existing Health experience on the desktop does not mean the desktop has a stored copy of all Garmin or Apple Health readings.
  • New readings cannot flow through the former iPhone connection while that connector is unavailable.
  • The documentation does not confirm direct Garmin import or whether the previous Garmin → Apple Health → Copilot Health path will return unchanged.

Do not select Delete my health data while trying to restore synchronization. That action deletes Health conversations, the Health Profile, and connected data sources; it is not a connector reset.^1^

Eligibility

Copilot Health remains a preview for users who:

  • Have Microsoft 365 Personal, Family, or Premium.
  • Are at least 18 years old.
  • Reside in the United States.
  • Sign in using the account associated with that subscription.^1^

If those conditions apply, the missing iOS Health option is consistent with the documented transition rather than evidence that the feature or your subscription has been permanently removed.
