Apple’s very own health and fitness tracking app is Apple HealthKit, which provides detailed options as far as wellness/fitness tracking goes. The HealthKit is integrated into iOS, known as an easy to read dashboard that allows diet, activity, exercise, sleep pattern, and other data tracking.

The HealthKit is very active – and not just in the health functionality way. It uses the iPhone’s M7 or M8 sensor to pull user data, and data points can be individually granted or denied as per user preference. The HealthKit works nicely with third party apps to add extra functionality and also lets the user take full control over their information. Appla has given privacy a serious thought, which is a plus for many users. The HealthKit works with Mayo Clinic and Nike as well as other partners to give the full health and fitness experience.

All in One

The extensiveness of the Apple HealthKit is what makes it so user friendly and perfect. The dashboard, which features all the data, is easy to read which makes for simple data analysis and tracking. Users can view their heart rate, cholesterol level, calories burned, and many other data types. Everything is available to the user in a single place so users literally tap their way into an extensive health tracker. As far as details go, there is much to use. Users can also make use of the Emergency Card, which allows them to enter extra information like blood type, allergies, and chronic conditions. This Emergency Card can be viewed on the iPhone’s lock screen, making it easy for caretakers to view their patient’s data.

Wellness as well as Fitness

The beauty of the HealthKit is that it does not just focus on fitness but also wellness. Users can see lab test results, diagnoses, exams, and much more. Users can also integrate the app into their personal health life. For example, they can use a blood pressure app to forward the information to their doctor easily or use a calorie tracking app to manage their diet.
