iOS 8Health is the application developed by the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), especially for iOS 8 and new iWatch, allowing us to monitor our vital functions and not only that. Although the application Health comes with a HealthKit which biometric/fitness accessory developers will need to use to provide compatibility, as some such products are natively supported by the app Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),.
Specifically, some accessories Bluetooth such as those of Withings can already record information in the Health a application iOS 8, she being able to control those products as needed. The connection with the various devices will be done using Bluetooth LE, after connecting iOS 8Health being able to retrieve various information from the respective accessories to display them in its interface for users or possibly doctors.
By launching this application, Apple offers manufacturers of biometric/fitness accessories the opportunity to abandon the development of dedicated applications for their products, as they are natively compatible with iDevices. In this idea, the products could be cheaper and a completely new range could appear starting from autumn, all depending on the market requirements.
