Jawbone Up App

Jawbone has launched its new Up app for the iPhone, which utilizes Apple’s Health app and HealthKit to track and deliver advice based on a user’s diet and physical activity. Not to be confused with Jawbone’s other Up app, this newest app does not require the company’s fitness tracker and works with over a hundred apps and devices, including MyFitnessPal, Strava Running and Cycling, IFTTT, and more. Information from meals logged throughout the day can be used to help generate nutritional advice, while data from workouts can be used to help set goals for the future. The Up app also allows users to log their sleep, which can be analyzed and used to provide advice on future sleep adjustments. All of the advice generated is powered by Jawbone’s Insight Engine, which works with both recorded data and data from the Internet to deliver information on a variety of fitness-related subjects.
