Open Radar

 
Summary:
Per rdar://29144768, developers should be able to write Activity Summaries to Health.app, but the explanation I received in that bug report is not visible on the public documentation. This documentation should be available so that developers can understand how to add to the user's Activity Summaries.

> Summary values are computed from other values that third party apps can get write access to. You don’t write appleExerciseTime, you write a workout or other activity and the summary query takes those into account automatically. Activity Summaries should never get write or share access.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Navigate to the HKActivitySummary documentation. Link: https://developer.apple.com/reference/healthkit/hkactivitysummary
2. Look for documentation on this page on how to save activity summaries to the user's local health store.

Expected Results:
The documentation contains information how to add HKActivitySummary data to Health.app. E.g., from the previous radar I filed:

> Summary values are computed from other values that third party apps can get write access to. You don’t write appleExerciseTime, you write a workout or other activity and the summary query takes those into account automatically. Activity Summaries should never get write or share access.

Observed Results:
The documentation states: "You can instantiate your own HKActivitySummary objects (if needed), but you cannot save HKActivitySummary objects to the store."

Version:
iOS 10.3.2
