Health as a cross-cutting axis of Apple technology

Siri and Health

La technology He accompanies us daily to all the sites. We would be lying if we said that we do not have an electronic device almost 24 hours a day strapped to our pocket, our desk or our hand. Companies have to be smart and try to take advantage dependence to improve user habits: health as a transversal axis of technology.

Apple has publicly admitted your concern for people's health and we can see how much of their products reserve a section for this problem. In addition, more and more the Apple Watch is becoming a saint's hand to improve and prevent the health of users.

A device to improve our health: is it the ideal?

The clear example of all this is the Apple Watch. The evolution of the smart watch has gone in growing since the launch of the first generation. It always had an important part of the device dedicated to health, however with the passing of the generations Apple's approach to the device is almost entirely on health. Thus we can see how the inclusion of the possibility of making electrocardiograms in the Apple Watch Series 4 is one more example of the involvement of those from Cupertino in health issues.

But we can not only see this axis in the products but also in programs and studies which are made thanks to the collection of information from the devices themselves. Creating a large base of real data, from real people endows the technology company with great power. In addition, Apple reaches out to developers and researchers to use its development platforms to improve their studies, it has even participated in studies at large universities in North America.

This transverse axis I am talking about should be evident in all the large multinationals that contribute their grain of sand to people, making them have increasingly intelligent devices. But having great products will be of little use if they do not have an important human component.

    Help !!!! It may be that with the Iphone Xs, some applications do not work well at all? I had the rome total war on the Iphone X and now on the Iphone Xs it is stumbling. It should not be like that. It should be at least as fluid.

    Health cannot be monitored 24 hours if Apple itself already says that the battery has an estimated duration of about 18 hours.

    Forget if you want to put it on an older person and have to take off the watch once a day to charge.

    It will sell like hotcakes, but it doesn't do what it promises.
