Add COROS Activities to FitKeep

FitKeep can import your COROS activities automatically once you connect your COROS account. If you prefer, or want your full history, you can also upload a bulk export from COROS by hand.

Connect COROS

  1. Open Settings → Integrations, or select Connect COROS on your activity list
  2. Next to COROS, choose Connect. If more than one COROS region is offered, pick the region of your COROS account first
  3. Sign in to COROS and allow FitKeep access to your activities

After that, new activities appear in FitKeep by themselves. FitKeep checks COROS every night, and again when you open FitKeep, so a run you just finished may take a little while to show up. It imports every sport, and FitKeep skips activities it already has.

The first time you connect, FitKeep brings in your last 30 days, newest first. COROS limits how many files can be downloaded a day, so a busy month is spread over a few days rather than arriving at once. The COROS card in Settings → Integrations shows how far the import is and when FitKeep last checked. If it says “Paused for now”, the rest follows at the time it names.

If FitKeep can’t download an activity, it tries again a few times over the next day before it gives up on it. Your Account Log lists what was imported and anything FitKeep gave up on.

If COROS stops accepting FitKeep’s access (for example after you change your COROS password or revoke access), Settings shows a notice with a Connect again button. Disconnecting in Settings also removes FitKeep’s access at COROS.

Import your full history by hand

Automatic import covers recent activities. To bring in older ones, request a bulk export from COROS and upload it.

Step 1: Request a bulk data export from COROS

COROS lets you download all of your activity data as a ZIP file containing FIT files.

Follow COROS’s official guide: Requesting a Bulk Export of COROS Data

The export may take a few minutes to prepare. COROS will notify you when it is ready to download.

Step 2: Upload the FIT files to FitKeep

Once you have the ZIP file:

  1. Go to the Upload page in FitKeep
  2. Drop the ZIP file directly onto the upload area. FitKeep will extract and import all FIT files inside it
  3. FitKeep processes the activities in the background. A large export can take a while, and you can leave the page in the meantime

You do not need to unzip the file first. FitKeep handles that automatically.

Send Planned Sessions to COROS

If you train with a Training Plan, FitKeep can send today’s and tomorrow’s Planned Sessions to your COROS calendar as workouts, with their steps and targets, so they are on your watch when you head out.

  • Turn it on or off with Send Planned Sessions to COROS on the COROS card in Settings → Integrations. It is on by default, and connecting COROS for the first time turns it on
  • COROS doesn’t let FitKeep move or delete a workout. When you move or skip a session in FitKeep, its old workout at COROS is renamed to say so, for example “Moved to Thu 12 Nov, see FitKeep”, and the session is sent again on its new day. You can delete the old one in the COROS app
  • A workout you moved, deleted or completed in the COROS app is left alone
  • Past days are never changed
  • Only one service gets your Planned Sessions at a time. See Connected Services

Keeping your history up to date

With COROS connected, you do not need to repeat the export. FitKeep skips duplicates, so uploading activities that are already in your account is always safe.
