The Health Connect Toolbox is a companion developer tool to help you test your app's integration with Health Connect. It can read and write data directly to Health Connect, allowing you to test your app's operations. You can download the APK to use it for your test cycle.
Extract the ZIP file to get the APK files. Then, to install the Toolbox APK on
a connected device, use adb. Navigate to the folder where the APK is located
