Hardly confidence inspiring – MyHeart Counts Review

The current app, updated recently, seems half-baked. That is, activities responses do not register when completed. Walking activity test is unrealistic, asking participant to sit down immediately upon completion. It’s as if app’s designers have not tested in real world. App will not accept ‘no’ as response to 23&me sharing; not possible to opt out of sharing. Developer web site link is hopelessly outdated, describing Apple’s iPhone models as 6s and 7s which this current app is designed for. Yikes! All in all, not very confidence building in terms of sharing one’s biometric data . Lack of attention to these visible details and awkward interface certainly give pause, and this only after just getting started. Well-intentioned, but hardly thought through. There are very concerning disconnects. One wonders if data gathered here suffer as well. Is this project really being supervised?
