With the Cronometer integration, your meals and hydration flow directly into BridgeAthletic for you and your coach to view. Once connected, your coach can see your calorie and macronutrient totals without you having to log them twice.
Getting Started
You can connect Cronometer to BridgeAthletic in two places:
1. From the Nutrition Tab
Open the Nutrition tab (Apple icon in the bottom navigation).
Tap Connect App → select Cronometer.
Sign in with your Cronometer credentials.
Tap Authorize.
2. From Profile Settings
Go to Profile → Data Connections & Access → Third Party Apps.
Tap + next to Cronometer.
Sign in and tap Authorize.
Once connected, you’ll see Cronometer Connected in your Nutrition tab.
Using the Integration
In BridgeAthletic:
Nutrition tab shows Cronometer as connected.
Manual nutrition logging in Bridge is disabled.
Your coach can view calorie totals, macros, hydration totals, and any comments or photos you add.
In Cronometer:
Continue logging meals and hydration as usual.
Bridge meal plans do not sync into Cronometer—you’ll follow your coach’s plan in Bridge.
Data Sync Details
What syncs: Calories, macros per meal, and hydration totals.
What doesn’t sync: Individual foods or meal details.
Sync timing: About 15 minutes after logging a meal in Cronometer.
Historical data: Past dates don’t sync automatically. To sync a past day, open that date in Cronometer and make a small edit (like updating water).

Before connecting: Any data logged in Bridge before your connection date will stay unchanged.
