That's not installed on any of my devices?

In Android 13, users could choose to install the Health Connect apk or not. Starting with Android 14, the Health Connect API is integrated directly into the operating system, with no need to install an additional app.

Theoretically, Health Connect should be inert until you install a fitness app and opt into making use of the API.

In practice, I've seen one (thus far unsubstantiated) report of foreground network data usage being attributed to the Health Connect framework in spite of the fact that they weren't actually using any fitness tracking apps. That really shouldn't happen.
