The application Withings Heath Matewhich serves to control and compile data on the brand’s health-oriented products, gained a new updategetting to the version 5.16 — currently being in 5.16.1, with bug fixes. The update brought several new features, including support for Live Activities (Live Activities).

In this case, while you are exercising, a persistent notification will be displayed, so that you can simply and continuously follow your progress on the locked screen and/or on the Dynamic Island (Dynamic Island) of the iPhones 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max.

formerly called “Dashboard”the separator “Measure” underwent a redesign. Now, it is possible to filter the data from categories such as “Heart”, “Body”, “Activity” and “Sleep”. In each of them, an option to start monitoring has also been added, as well as tutorials throughout the app with explanations of the functions.

For subscribers of Whitings+, more news was announced. There is now a score (ranging from 1 to 100) referring to your health status and development, showing details about the composition of the result. The user can also set a target score to be achieved, so the app will send updates and motivate the person to reach it.

Another tab that has been redesigned — for subscription members only — is the “Achieve”formerly known as “Programs”. In it, there is a library with diverse contents, in order to offer clearer ways to monitor your progress and provide recipes, workouts and articles. Finally, the possibility of exchanging missions has been added, to choose the ones that best suit what you want.

Withings also reported the correction of two bugs. The first of these involves the screen flickering intermittently on the tab. “Measure”already corrected with the version 5.16.1. The second consists of delays and crashes in loading the app’s data. The latter is still being fixed and the recommendation is to close and reopen the app if you experience the described situation.

The accessories brand’s app focuses on complementing the use of its products, which offer advanced monitoring of various aspects of health and well-being.
