We all know that devices such as the smartphone are seeing more and more features crammed within, which makes for them to get all the more indispensable. However, should we be concerned at how devices keep track of our details, including our heart rate, blood pressure, as well as blood glucose levels? Doctors have weighed in on the Apple HealthKit that is touted to roll out alongside iOS 8 in the upcoming iPhone 6, and here are some of their thoughts.
The iPhone 6 launch is just weeks away, but there will be much more than just one or two new phones. Of greater importance to most iPhone and iPad users is the accompanying release of iOS 8. Apple has heavily reworked its mobile operating system and the biggest change will be a drive into fitness. It is a move which has doctors concerned.

HealthKit will work with the iPhone 4S, fifth generation iPod touch, iPad 2 and above (older models won’t get iOS 8), but the iPhone 6 will be the centrepiece and driving force for HealthKit as it will have an array of new sensors expected to deliver far greater health monitoring capabilities.
