I have a test project where I get the total number of falls for a user for each day over the course of the week. The initialResultsHandler works perfectly every time, however the statisticsUpdateHandler doesn't always fire off. If you start the app, then go to the health app and insert falls manually, switch back to the test app you should see the total for today update. In reality this works for about the first 3-6 times. After that the statisticsUpdateHandler doesn't get called anymore.
What's also odd is that if you delete data and then go back to the test app, or add data from a time earlier than now, the statisticsUpdateHandler gets called. This leads me to think that it has something to do with the statisticsUpdateHandler end date.
Apples documentation is pretty clear however I’m afraid they might be leaving something out.
If this property is set to nil, the statistics collection query will automatically stop as soon as it has finished calculating the initial results. If this property is not nil, the query behaves similarly to the observer query. It continues to run, monitoring the HealthKit store. If any new, matching samples are saved to the store—or if any of the existing matching samples are deleted from the store—the query executes the update handler on a background queue.
Is there any reason that statisticsUpdateHandler might not be called? I have included a test project below.
struct Falls: Identifiable{
let id = UUID()
let date: Date
let value: Int
var formattedDate: String{
let formatter = DateFormatter()
formatter.setLocalizedDateFormatFromTemplate("MM/dd/yyyy")
return formatter.string(from: date)
}
}
struct ContentView: View {
@StateObject var manager = HealthKitManager()
var body: some View {
NavigationView{
List{
Text("Updates: \(manager.updates)")
ForEach(manager.falls){ falls in
HStack{
Text(falls.value.description)
Text(falls.formattedDate)

.overlay(
ProgressView()
.scaleEffect(1.5)
.opacity(manager.isLoading ? 1 : 0)
)
.navigationTitle("Falls")

static var previews: some View {

init() {
let healthKitTypesToRead: Set<HKSampleType> = [fallType]
healthStore.requestAuthorization(toShare: nil, read: healthKitTypesToRead) { (success, error) in

self.startQuery()

func startQuery(){
let now = Date()
let cal = Calendar.current
let sevenDaysAgo = cal.date(byAdding: .day, value: -7, to: now)!
let startDate = cal.startOfDay(for: sevenDaysAgo)
let predicate = HKQuery.predicateForSamples(withStart: startDate, end: now, options: [.strictStartDate, .strictEndDate])

interval.day = 1

DispatchQueue.main.async{

self.updates += 1
self.falls.removeAll(keepingCapacity: true)

collection.enumerateStatistics(from: startDate, to: Date()){ (result, stop) in
guard let sumQuantity = result.sumQuantity() else {

let totalFallsForADay = Int(sumQuantity.doubleValue(for: .count()))
let falls = Falls(date: result.startDate, value: totalFallsForADay)
print(falls.value, falls.formattedDate)
print("\n\n")
DispatchQueue.main.async{
self.falls.insert(falls, at: 0)

I was so focused on the statisticsUpdateHandler and the start and end time that I didn't pay attention to the query itself. It turns out that the predicate was the issue. By giving it an end date, it was never looking for samples outside the the initial predicate end date.
Changing the predicate to this solved the issue:
let predicate = HKQuery.predicateForSamples(withStart: startDate, end: nil, options: [.strictStartDate])
