With the newly released iOS 8.0.2 update, Apple not only hopes to fix issues caused by the earlier iOS 8.0.1 update but also gives way to the new HealthKit app. If you’ve ever used your device to keep track of your health, using HealthKit will prove to be a more advantageous deal for you!
Now that the support for HealthKit has been released, Apple has also rolled out the apps that have been developed compatible with HealthKit. Creating a special Apps for Health section inside the App Store, the apps that have been enlisted may not be too many for now. But they will certainly grow in just a short time. Here are some of the apps that are currently available for users:
FitStar Personal Trainer Burn
