The Health app on your iPhone is packed with data about your health, offering a comprehensive insight into your physical and mental well-being. You can use it to track data relating to your heart and aspects of your respiratory system. You can also monitor your sleep patterns, walking steadiness and so much more.
But while many insights are readily available, some need to be activated according to your medical requirements. There are also features that need work to set up, whether that’s adding schedules for your medication or creating a potentially life-saving Medical ID (subsequently accessed by swiping up from the Lock Screen and tapping Emergency).
