“Even as all of us in the world are grappling with the challenges of COVID-19, we must continue to invest in our future. And there is no better investment than in our own personal health, ”said Heng Swee Keat, Singapore’s Deputy Prime Minister. “This partnership between Singaporean and Apple will enable Singaporeans to lead healthier lives, but equally importantly, it will contribute valuable knowledge to improve the health of people around the world.”
“Singapore has one of the world’s leading healthcare systems and we are delighted to partner with them to incorporate Apple Watch and LumiHealth into their holistic approach to wellness,” said Jeff Williams, Apple’s chief operating officer. “Apple Watch has already helped millions of our customers manage their activity levels to improve their health, and we look forward to applying our experience here in the same privacy-friendly way that distinguishes all Apple products and services.”
LumiHealth harnesses the power of Apple Watch to encourage and empower Singaporeans and residents to adopt healthy habits through personalized reminders, programs, activity training, and incentives. Within the app, users travel through worlds with a friendly intergalactic explorer that guides them through personalized tasks based on their age, gender, and weight. They include weekly activity goals that can be achieved not only by walking, but also by swimming, yoga, and other activities. LumiHealth also reminds users to undergo health screenings and immunizations, and to participate in wellness challenges that aim to improve sleep habits and mindfulness, as well as encourage better food choices. By completing these objectives and challenges, users help the intergalactic explorer return home, while they can earn rewards worth up to S $ 380 over the two-year duration of the program. An Apple Watch is required to participate, as well as downloading the LumiHealth app from the App Store.
