Apple Redesigns Health App With 16-Language AI Support and New Health Age Metric

Summary
Apple said its redesigned Health app will roll out on Apple Intelligence-enabled iPhone and iPad models, adding broader language support and AI-driven health insights tailored to each user’s metrics.
A new Health Age feature combines data including VO2 max, resting heart rate, sleep and heart rate variability into a measure of how a user’s body tracks against chronological age, with optional lab data such as A1c and LDL.
The update also adds a VO2 max estimation test with real-time audio and visual feedback, using on-device vision AI developed with clinical experts; Apple said no video is recorded, stored or shared.
Apple Intelligence for the app supports 16 languages, including English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French and Spanish, though some features will vary by region, language and local regulations.
Several functions require extra hardware or age thresholds: Health Age needs Apple Watch, the VO2 max test needs Apple Watch, AirPods Pro 3 or another heart-rate device, and some features are limited to users 18 or older.
