Apple’s revamped Health app will calculate your ‘health age’ and readiness score
techcrunch ·
Apple announced a redesigned Health app alongside the new Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4. The app uses Apple Intelligence to add an Insights tab with timely summaries, personalized guidance, and assessments. It introduces a 'readiness' score and a 'Health Age' calculation, which compares metrics like VO2 max, sleep, and blood biomarkers to actual age. A new longevity tab assesses health across sleep, movement, and heart health, and can incorporate lab results. Apple partnered with Quest to offer a 50-biomarker lab panel for $119. The app can suggest workout improvements, offer deeper fitness and heart health insights, and provide guided movement assessments for aging or injury recovery. The updated Health app will be available later this year, starting in U.S. English.
