  7. The Workouts

  8. Opinion of the App • I found this app by typing in fitness to the app search on my Iphone • Pros: user friendly, easy to access videos of unfamiliar exercise moves, can set own music from library, makes fast workouts more accessible • Cons: I really enjoy this app, so it is difficult to identify a con. The app performs as it should.

  9. myfitnesspal (Geetha)

  10. Weight-loss App for the IPhone Lauren Parks

  11. daily burn TRACKER app Tracks nutrition, physical activity and weight • Nutrition information for extensive listing of foods • Physical activity listings for a range of workouts and ability to build personalized workouts • Input and track customized weight loss plan

  12. Interesting Features and Design • Easy to use interface • Clean and simple design • Social features • Invite friends to join • Receive customizable reminders about physical activity • Set specific personal goals for nutrients, such as sodium, fat or sugar intake

  13. Very intuitive structure Allows setting of weight loss goal and rate of loss Uses a BMI based algorithm to calculate caloric needs Some limitation on dynamic nature of caloric use and loss Has a basic social network element – interfaces with facebook and twitter Loseit App (NKarnik)

  14. Good Points Ease of use Large database of foods Access to national brand restaurants and groceries Social networking Ease of input of data using smartphone or computer/web access Barcode reader is great Areas for Improvement Accuracy of nutritional information is unclear Motivators seem to wear off Network tends to diminish over time as some achieve goals and others drop out How to keep people engaged? Any room for suggestions/advice – a more active app? Loseit App

  15. Linda DePotoMay 30, 2012 • A friend told me her family lost a lot of weight with it • How it works: • After creating a profile, you choose how quickly you want to lose weight (1/2 to 2 lbs per week), and Lose It! calculates your calories per day • You enter your food and exercise as you go throughout the day, and Lose It! adjusts how many calories you have “left” for the day each time you make an entry • What makes it interesting: • It is incredibly simple yet it works! As long as you are disciplined enough to enter all the data, the app will tell you in black and white how to change your behavior (i.e., how much you should eat) for the rest of the day • You can link it up to your friends to create a social support network.

  16. Linda DePotoMay 30, 2012 • A friend told me her family lost a lot of weight with it • Where it is lacking: • It doesn’t offer any tips/suggestions on how to construct a healthier diet that will help you lose weight yet still enjoy good tasting foods and not be hungry. Is the weight loss achieved through this app sustainable? • Key Take-Aways: • It can be a nuisance to maintain a food/exercise log, but it’s a general recommendation for people who are trying to lose weight. Lose It! makes it easy because it’s on the phone, and it also automatically fills in the calorie info.

At the end of each day, your last urine color will be recorded into your personal log.

  31. Med Helper Prescription Appby EarthFlare Description: MedHelper is prescription/medication compliance and tracking App designed to help individuals and caregivers keep track of and schedule prescriptions, medications, refills, doctors, pharmacies along with relevant personal information such as allergies and blood types. Alarms can be set to notify you when medications need to be taken or when prescriptions are getting low and need refilling. Once added, refills can be automatically updated by a simple touch of a button. Inventory tracking follows and logs the time and dose taken and presents it in an easy to read timeline. A “take as needed” feature let’s you manage and log off-schedule prescriptions such as pain management medications. Multiple profiles allow caregivers the ability to manage as many people as they need. Data can also be exported and shared by email in multiple formats. Available on Android and iOS, free. User Reviews: 5 star   441 Average Rating: 4.3 (771 reviews) 4 star   206 Downloads: 50,000 on Android 3 star   63 2 star   19 1 star   42

  32. My Review of Med Helper I was looking for apps to help patients improve and document medication adherence. I searched google for reviews of apps that help with medication adherence, as well as the iTunes and Google Play stores using a keyword search. There are many medication apps available, but most just focus on providing drug information, serve as a personal medication record, or simply provide reminders. I wanted to find an app that could serve as a tool to help patients not only remember to take their medications, but also collect data on current and historical medication use for research purposes.

  33. My Review of Med Helper What makes the app unique, is that in addition to alarms and reminders, the app offers the following functions: 1. Able to track inventory to prevent running out of medication 2. Creates a log of past doses taken 3. Multiple profiles for family healthcare coordination 4. Flexible scheduling and customization of current regimen • Shows a list of color coded doses for the current day grouped by scheduled time. Take as needed doses are colored light blue. The times in small font are when you set a dose status in the following categories: • Orange: Overdue doses that haven’t been marked as taken or skipped. • Yellow: Times with both taken and untaken meds. • Green: For doses that have been marked as taken or skipped. • White: Doses in the future yet to be taken. Allowing you to take meds before the reminder goes off. 5. Exportable reports to share information with providers, caregivers and family members via email and downloaded as an html or Microsoft Excel 2000 file. Perhaps the most helpful feature from a clinician/researcher perspective.

  37. How it works & audience • Running population with results/activities linked to Twitter, Facebook, Garmin, smart phones • Found out about RunKeeper through Twitter & InsideTracker • Uses mobile GPS to track runs, hikes, walks, in-the-gym aerobic workouts, etc. • Self-motivating and progress checking tool • Measures calories, miles, distance, fitness reports, races, classes, etc. www.runkeeper.com

  38. Health App Comments Official ratings & reviews iPhone 4/5 Android 5/5 Website 3/5 My rating 3/5 Overall, people prefer Endomondo, My Tracks, MapMyRUN or Strava over RunKeeper due to accessibility, comfort, accuracy, & features www.runkeeper.com

  39. Health App Comments My thoughts Pros Allows you to track your progress visually Allows for uploads from running watch sources; “drop pin” capability Allows for goal setting Following friends and joining classes/groups Has other aerobic activities rather than just running Cons No motivation or suggestions No way to repeat already uploaded exercises/same running routes No iPod capability Basically a Facebook for runners What I learned How many other running apps there are Capabilities/tracking system techniques that work like Google Earth www.runkeeper.com

  40. Mayo Clinic Meditation(Sam)$2.99

  41. Uses musical chords and circles to teach users breathing techniques for meditation Option of either a 5 or 15 minute program Begins and ends with “Healing Thoughts” that user can share with friends Based upon research of Amit Sood, M.D. – a Mayo Clinic consultant for Complementary and Integrative Medicine “A clinically validated method of meditation you can easily practice using your iPhone or iPod.”

  42. Many users assumed this would be a quality app because of the visibility and credible reputation of Mayo Clinic. The majority of user reviews express disappointment in the quality of the app, with some even stating that the sounds heightened their anxiety. However, a few reviewers did attest to have benefitted from the app. Rating: 3/5 stars Personal assessment: This was the second app to appear in my search for “healthy alternatives.” I had been searching for an app about healthy cooking with substitutes. The brand equity of Mayo Clinic seems to drive most of the downloads, and justify the cost of $2.99 After reading the reviews, my perceived benefits of the app did not outweigh the cost. Therefore, I have not tried it personally. I think more efforts should be made all-around to promote complementary medicine options. The presence of this app in the store by a respected brand may help bring about some awareness about the importance of mental health, even if the app still needs a lot of work to be successful. It is difficult to measure and evaluate the app with soft data involving how tranquil someone feels after using it. I like the audio-visual approach. The “healing thoughts” may be useful for some as well. With some innovation in design and development, this type of app could be very useful to many people in improving their quality of life. App Review

  43. Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock by Maciek Drajak Labs “The Sleep Cycle alarm clock is a bio-alarm clock that analyzes your sleep patterns and wakes you when you are in the lightest sleep phase. Waking up in the lightest sleep phase feels like waking without an alarm clock - it is a natural way to wake up where you feel rested and relaxed.” • Easy to find in App Store • Ranked #2 under Health and Fitness Top Paid Apps • Very highly rated • 4.5 Stars with 14,281 ratings

  44. Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock (Julie Bromberg)by Maciek Drajak Labs “Since you move differently in bed during the different phases, the Sleep Cycle alarm clock is able to use the accelerometer in your iPhone to monitor your movement and determine which sleep phase you are in. Sleep Cycle then uses a 30 minute alarm window that ends at your set alarm time and wakes you in your lightest sleep phase.” • This app takes advantage of mobile devices’ built-in capabilities to measure sleep phases • Or more accurately, a correlate of sleep phases, since the true measure of sleep phases is brain waves

  45. Sleep Cycle Alarm Clock by Maciek Drajak Labs • If it works effectively, could have huge impact since sleep can have a large impact on quality of life • The app claims it has been tested, but provides no other information to support this claim • Unknown if it is based on research or has been scientifically evaluated for effectiveness, but reviews are overwhelming positive that it works • Is this app really valid? Or could the 14,000+ people who rated it be wrong?
