More About MyHeart Counts
The app can help you measure your activity through the sensors in your iPhone or the Apple Watch, or any wearable activity device linked to Apple Health App. If you are able, you can also do a walking fitness assessment. Plus, using your cholesterol results and blood pressure, the MyHeart Counts app will provide a calculation of your risk for future heart attack or stroke, as well as a relative “heart age.” By helping you track your activity levels and giving you feedback, we aim to help people be more informed and empowered in their health. We may also ask you to test different approaches to help you be more active so we can understand how mobile apps in the future can help prevent heart disease.
Key Features:
Record and track your:
• Physical activity through your iPhone or a Apple Health App-linked device
• Fitness level, if you are able, through a 6 minute walk test
• Risk score for heart disease or stroke, and your corresponding “heart age”
Receive reminders and notifications about:
• Your activity and sleep
• Surveys on Physical Activity Readiness and other health factors
• Entering blood pressure and cholesterol levels to calculate your risk score
Get educated:
