Is it possible with the plugin to get data even when app is in background. This feature is required for my use case. It seems possible as describe in this post: [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26375767/healthkit-background-delivery-when-app-is-not-running]

Hey, currently you can only use it foreground.

You can use my fork https://github.com/AmitaiMazliah/FitKit it's still a work in progress and only implemented for iOS.

for android you can combine it with https://pub.dev/packages/background_fetch and it works perfect

Hi @AmitaiMazliah ,

Does your fork support background fetch? I have the Android part working great using background_fetch but facing crashes on IOS.

Do I just need to replace the fit_kit I have with your fork? Are there any other changes needed?
