By analyzing Healthbook's user interface, we see that Apple is going beyond the usual health and fitness tracking system, but a revolutionary live body and health monitoring assistant. The tabs indicate monitoring features such as bloodwork, hydration, blood pressure, blood sugar, and oxygen saturation.

Healthbook also holds a "Nutrition" profile to observe food intake and calorie monitoring to meet individual weight goals and planning. Other interesting features such as "Sleep" allow the user to record sleeping patterns to possibly assist in analyzing night habits.

How the user's data will be taken however is still a big question: will Apple finally release it's iWatch which will be the core of Healthbook, outsource the app to third-party devices, or have other surprises up their sleeves? Altogether, Healthbook is a new field which Apple is determined to enter in an effort of company revitalization.
