Vital

Vital helps you understand the health records already on your Apple devices. Instead of judging every number against a generic average, Vital starts with your own history. It estimates your usual range, reduces the influence of potential outliers, and highlights changes that may be worth noticing. PERSONAL BASELINES See a representative average and usual range based on recent records. Potential outliers remain visible in charts but can be excluded from baseline calculations. TRENDS AND DAILY DETAILS Explore day-by-day charts for sleep, activity, heart, mobility, hearing, nutrition, environmental exposure, mindfulness, body measurements, and other supported Health data. ANALYSIS LAB Compare two metrics on the same day or with a time lag. Vital uses rank correlation on daily changes and checks stability across time periods to reduce misleading relationships caused by shared long-term trends. CONTEXT, NOT A DIAGNOSIS Add an age and reference group to view clearly sourced population context for selected metrics. Personal trends remain separate from published reference data. APPLE WATCH AND LIVE ACTIVITIES Check your latest score and key signals from Apple Watch. When enabled, Live Activities can also show a compact summary on the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, and Watch Smart Stack. SHARE ON YOUR TERMS Create a Stories image, a wide post, or a compact transparent card for Today, Analysis, and Baseline. Images are generated locally and shared only after you choose a destination. PRIVATE BY DESIGN β’ Health data and analysis stay on your device β’ No account required for health analysis β’ No advertising or behavioral analytics SDK β’ No health data sent to GPT or another generative AI service β’ Health export ZIP and XML imports are processed locally OPTIONAL PRIVATE COMMUNITY Create or join invite-only groups to share only the workout summaries you choose: activity type, date, duration, distance, and Vital Effort. Community accounts and shared summaries use Supabase. Raw HealthKit data, heart rate, sleep, HRV, location, and routes are never uploaded. Vital is a wellness app, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, prevent disease, predict emergencies, or establish causation. Consult a qualified healthcare professional for medical advice.
