Check the Permissions of Apple Health

Zones app saves data in Apple Health.
Permission is required for use.

Notes

Check Health permissions on both iPhone and Apple Watch.

It seems that health permissions may not be synchronized between iPhone and Apple Watch.
For example, there were items in Health on Apple Watch that were not displayed in Health on iPhone.
It may be fixed in a future OS update, but at this time we have not found a solution other than setting it on both devices.

When using Zones v6.0.0 - 6.0.2 with sync failure, "Health's permission setting is displayed every time", "I should have allowed everything, but a denied message is displayed", etc. may occur.
Therefore, in Zones v 6.0.3, it has been fixed so that the message will not be displayed every time, but please check the health care permission on both iPhone and Apple Watch to prevent data loss.
