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.

An easy way to contribute to research
Making my daily entries is quick and easy
Dirk van Nouhuys
Daily check in fine; six-minute walk broken
Generally my dialy report is easy & makes me feel useful. But for that couple of years the six- minute walk has failed to work. I start it and gives me instructions to start and never speaks to me again or records a result.
