I really like that Apple hasn’t stepped in to offer some definitive hardware solution. I like this diverse market and I don’t necessarily think Apple should try that on their own. They seem quite intent on letting the market figure that out and letting others integrate nicely. I also hope that Apple keeps steady with that, even if they start selling their own wearables (though I think that’s less likely now).
I mean, I assume this will be able to integrate with dedicated step counters, so the fact that newer iPhones have their own step counter built in didn’t lead Apple to prevent others from integrating – which is a somewhat promising sign.
It just seems better to me, even for the market itself.
Switch to Android? Hope you aren't keeping your insulin / blood sugar records in there.
