A browser-based converter turns an Apple Health export.xml or export.zip into separate CSVs for selected metrics.

Field notes
The page describes a two-pass streaming SAX parser running in a Web Worker: one pass counts metrics and dates, and the next writes output without keeping the rows. Record CSVs use HealthKit type identifiers and include fields such as source, sourceVersion, and device. Workouts and activity summaries have their own output files. The page cautions that iPhones and iPads may run out of memory while reading a large export; it suggests trying fewer metrics or desktop Chrome.
