The Data We Give To Health Tracking Apps

The Data We Give To Health Tracking Apps

Wearing a smartwatch and recording all physical activities, along with the nutrition we take is highly convenient for the dieting apps which plan diets and exercise routines tailored for us.

All the online health data that is recorded and analysed, apart from the long online questionnaires asking users about their gender, weight, exercise habits, geolocation etc. are used by the dieting apps for pushing targeted ads and selling the information to interested third parties.

Data Is The New Goldmine

The terabytes of user data recorded through tracking apps and smartwatches can end up with third parties, Facebook, Google Analytics, Yandex and data analysis firms who mine it for commercial purposes.

User data is the currency of the decade and has made companies offer free products to consumers and yet enter the Fortune 500 club.

Users need to demand more transparency into how their data is used and protected, to avoid being a product to these companies.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
