Jawbone Up for iPhone

iPhone has had a lot of accessories over the years and many more and rolling out almost every week. You have accessories that help you with entertainment, gaming, retail, health, security, military, and a lot more. Jawbone is one of the renounced accessory maker for the iPhone. And now, the accessory manufacturer has come out with a new one, and its called the Jawbone Up.

Unlike many other Jawbone accessories, the new Jawbone Up is a health bracelet. What does it mean? It means the accessory is just a bracelet that you wear on your wrist and this is hooked up to your iPhone. The bracelet will get all the health data from your body throughout the day and then transfer the data to the app on the iPhone that comes with the bracelet.

The app then creates different charts of the activities of your body for the whole day. This way, you can assess the work your body does the whole day and can decide if you need to do more work to keep yourself healthy. Jawbone had announced this cool accessory way back in June, but after that, there was no news about it till now.

9to5Mac has been able to get a preview of this product and this is what they have to say:

“The Jawbone Up uses sophisticated hardware and software to track user’s steps, distance traveled, pace, intensity level of movement, and calories burned throughout a day. In addition, the system intelligently breaks down a person’s active time versus inactive time. Perhaps the coolest feature within the device’s “Move” functionality is the ability to remind users when it’s time to get up and be active. This little bracelet can actually vibrate as an alert for the user to become active. Of course, a user reads all of the above information categories from their iPhone or Android device with a special Jawbone-built application.”

So, interested? Will you be buying one?
