After a slow week I finally made some progress over this last weekend. I found out that a chunk of the code/examples I had been following in this 2021 Apple Developer Workout tutorial had been depreciated/updated after looking at some project source code. I spent some time going through my project and making the necessary updates — particularly to my Views and to my WorkoutManger files. After running the app through my iPhone (connected to my computer) I was able to start a session, see the metrics view/controls view/now playing view (all setup through session paging view), and finally save a workout through the summaryView.
Currently the Metrics View still needs some work. I have been unable to successfully measure distance traveled or steps taken by a user. My plans for the upcoming week are to continue debugging to find out how to successfully request/update these values in order to grab other data that is more related this project. For example, once I can successfully grab and step counts I know I will be able to look at other data such as respiratory rate and stand time.
On Sunday night I was able to successfully able to log metrics values that were working such as heart rate. The log, paired with other documentation will hopefully help me grab other data correctly.
