A&D Connect Now Syncs to Apple's Health App

A&D Medical, the worldwide leader in connected health and biometric measurement devices and services, announced today the launch of its free new A&D Connect mobile app that seamlessly communicates with Apple's (News - Alert) Health app. A&D already offers its own native connection between users and their doctors and loved ones, but the new app assures that people can aggregate all their info into one place on Apple's Health App if they like.

A&D Connect can automatically sync user data for blood pressure, heart rate, weight, calorie, steps and distance walked to the Apple Health app. A&D Connect links to A&D's Bluetooth Smart-enabled weight scales and blood pressure monitors, as well as the LifeTrak family of activity trackers from Salutron.

"A&D Connect is based on the real tools and best practices of the medical community, so people know they are getting what doctors need," said Terry Duesterhoeft, President and Chief Executive Officer of A&D Engineering. "A&D Connect gives patients, physicians, and families peace of mind, knowing they can all monitor a person's health with medical grade tools."

Key benefits of A&D Connect include:

• Improve Fitness - Count your steps, view your heart rate, and see how many calories you're burning-then chart your progress over time, for great insight onyour daily activity and how it impacts your health.
