Top Stories Tamfitronics Apple is about to release sleep apnea detection support for Apple Watch users with watchOS 11.1. However, that isn’t the only health feature the company has worked on in the past year. According to Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman, the company tested a blood-sugar app to help people with prediabetes manage their food intake and make lifestyle changes.This top-secret project was held with select employees with prediabetic diagnoses early this year. Even though Apple doesn’t plan to release this app to the public, it still wants to integrate this technology into future health products, including a non-invasive glucose tracker it’s been developing for over a decade.The journalist said the app’s idea was to “show consumers how certain foods can affect blood sugar.” After all, the study was intended to “explore the possible uses for...
