Leaked He althbook details
Clues related to iOS 8 are already beginning to appear in different media, and everything points to the next version of Apple's mobile system will have functions focused on sports and he alth It is a growing trend, especially now that smart accessories such as bracelets or watches are becoming popular. iOS 8 will have this type of specific functions for he alth, and the rumored iWatch would be a key piece in its development.The Apple SmartWatch is expected to launch next fall alongside the iPhone 6 This The device could measure certain parameters and communicate with the iPhone, where the He althbook application would take care of recording all the information. The blog 9to5mac has had access to the content of He althbook, the alleged flagship feature of iOS 8 We see its details below.
As can be seen in the screenshots, He althbook has eleven sections that measure different parameters related to he alth and also sports. The first of them is Emergency card, a section that would be focused on emergency situations so that qualified personnel can see information of interest about the user, such as diseases pre-existingThen come sections Bloodworks (blood flow), heart rate, blood pressure and blood pressure measurement. blood sugar. There is also space for hydration levels, meter activity, nutrition information, sleep, breathing, oxygen saturation and weight With all these variables you can create a chart very comprehensive about our fitness, in fact it is extremely comprehensive for a mobile app.
On paper it sounds promising, but the question is the way in which this information will be collected There are aspects such as the activity, the sleep or even heart rate that could be recorded by the iPhone itself with special sensors.There has also been talk that the iWatch will have advanced systems that will record more specific information. However, there are points such as blood pressure, hydration or oxygen saturation that a priori seem impossible to collect by a watch or a smartphone. We may need to use special accessories for certain functions, or we may have to enter the data manually after a medical examination. Logically, not all users will need to handle all the He althbook variables, for example the blood sugar option is only focused on people with diabetes, as well as hydration levels for athletes at advanced levels.
The interface of the application is based on what we already knew from Passbook , the function used to carry tickets, boarding passes, discounts and other passes.At the moment it is a leak, so there is no official confirmation from Apple and it is not known when this application will be available. As we said, it is expected to debut with iOS 8, which will be presented in June but not coming to iPhones this fall.
