Apple Explores Blood Sugar Management with New Health App
The tech giant tested an app to help prediabetics manage their condition, though development is currently paused.
- Apple's experimental app aimed to assist individuals with prediabetes in managing their diet and lifestyle choices.
- The app was tested internally by Apple employees who confirmed their prediabetic status through blood tests.
- Participants used existing glucose monitoring devices to track how different foods affected their blood sugar levels.
- The initiative is separate from Apple's ongoing project to develop a noninvasive blood glucose monitoring system for the Apple Watch.
- While the app's development is paused, its findings may inform future Apple health products and features.
