Software development on Linux is easier than software development on Android. I miss a Linux version of a training tracker for the Linux PinePhone:

or for a Linux watch like the LG watch Urbane running Linux Asteroid OS:

This app uses Android APIs, Linux version would be a completely different app. You basically need to own such a device to develop for it too.

I am the proud owner of a Pinephone, and I invested a lot of time in it. But unfortunately I did not use it for a single day in my life. I am now a Raspberry Pi zero 2 w enthousiast. It can be used with DietPi which is the best OS for this device. a training tracker is great with an Android phone and the easiest way I know to access and process sports sensor data.

What is also interesting but unforunately I do not know anyone who uses it is to use the Apple watch with the Apple health auto export app to export the data to Home Assistant and InfluxDB as shown by Udo Berndt from smartlive-net. Home Assistant runs on a Raspberry Pi. And the sensor data can be processed by the InfluxDB client for Python. But since I usually don't code, as you can see on my GITHUB page, this is a solution is much too complicated for me personally

A training tracker is still the easiest solution I know to process sensor data. You can easily import the txt. file into you data analysis software and process it..
