Ultrahuman announces its App Store ‘PowerPlugs’ with the World’s First AFib Detection Technology on a Smart Ring

Ultrahuman

Ultrahuman, a pioneer in wearable technology, launches PowerPlugs, a platform for individual apps and plugins built on top of Ultrahuman’s health and wellness data stack. This is the world’s first in a smart ring form factor. Recognizing each individual’s health journey is unique, PowerPlugs enable people to choose and focus on the aspects of their health that matter most. It’s designed for highly personalized health insights, ensuring that every individual can personalize their health tracking to their unique needs and goals. At the forefront of PowerPlugs is AFib Detection, a PowerPlug that discreetly monitors your heart rhythm every night to detect signs of Atrial Fibrillation (AFib). Ultrahuman Ring AIR is the first smart ring in the world to offer AFib detection. AFib is the most common type of irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia. It can lead to serious health complications such as stroke and heart failure, if left undetected. Individuals with potential arrhythmia episodes or a history of irregular rhythms can now track AFib closely and seek early intervention. Speaking on the launch, Mohit Kumar, Founder and CEO of Ultrahuman said “When it comes to health, one size doesn’t fit all. That’s why we built PowerPlugs for people to pick and choose what matters most for their health and wellness. Over the next few years, you could expect thousands of applications to be built on top of Ultrahuman’s comprehensive health data platform. Given our most comprehensive data stack of health markers from Ultrahuman Ring, M1 CGM, Ultrahuman Home and more to come, there’s infinite scope to build deep experiences over the next few years. Essentially, your Ultrahuman Ring will keep getting better after your purchase.” “We’re launching our first few PowerPlugs with a novel game changing capability, AFib detection. This life saving technology comes with medical approval in limited markets currently and we’re aggressively launching new markets with regulator’s approval every few weeks.” The PowerPlugs ecosystem can be accessed through the Ultrahuman App and is available in free and premium options. Circadian Rhythm Understanding the importance of aligning with natural circadian rhythms, the Ring AIR provides actionable recommendations tailored to your lifestyle. These suggestions include the optimal times to expose yourself to natural light, exercise, and wind down in the evening, aiming to enhance your energy levels, improve sleep quality, and bolster your overall health. Pregnancy Mode Pregnancy Mode adjusts health monitoring and recommendations specifically for pregnancy. It provides tailored advice on nutrition, activity levels, and health metrics that are crucial during this time. Gain insights into how to maintain your health and your baby's development, with safety and well-being as the priority. Cycle Tracking Cycle Tracking offers a comprehensive overview of your menstrual cycle phases and predicts upcoming cycles with high accuracy. This tool provides personalized insights into your fertility windows and symptom patterns, enabling proactive health management and lifestyle adjustments. Empower yourself with knowledge to make informed decisions about your reproductive health. Caffeine Window Track and optimize your consumption of stimulants such as caffeine throughout the day. By understanding your body's response to different stimulants, this tool advises on the best times for consumption to boost your alertness without affecting your nightly rest. Ideal for maintaining high energy levels and ensuring restful sleep. Vitamin D Manage Vitamin D intake through sun exposure. The app calculates the optimal times for you to step outside, based on your skin type, location, and current UV index, ensuring you get the most effective and safe sun exposure. It focuses on skin absorption, telling you precisely when to go out and estimating how much Vitamin D (in IU) your skin will absorb during your session. With real-time tracking and safety alerts to prevent overexposure, this PowerPlug makes maintaining healthy Vitamin D levels effortless and personalized. Jet Lag Jet Lag PowerPlug features personalized jet lag plans based on the users' travel itineraries, sleep patterns, and chronotypes, leveraging evidence-based methods involving light exposure, melatonin supplements, caffeine, and naps. It offers detailed schedules to follow before, during, and after trips, helping reset the circadian clock efficiently. Weight loss Integrate meal planning with real-time glucose monitoring to optimize your fitness journey. Ultrahuman Ring AIR tracks calories burnt throughout the day. It syncs with automated food logging to provide a comprehensive view of calorie intake versus expenditure. This helps users maintain a balanced diet and work towards their fitness goals without the hassle of manually logging their data. This is a game changer for anyone optimising their weight loss journey. Ovulation Women can now understand ovulation cycles, helping them better understand their bodies and menstrual health. For women looking to conceive, accurate ovulation detection can significantly increase the chances of pregnancy by identifying the most fertile days. Conversely, for those practising natural family planning methods, knowing the ovulation period can help in avoiding pregnancy. Additionally, continuous monitoring can help identify potential reproductive health issues early, allowing for timely interventions. Ultrahuman’s accessibility to health personalization doesn’t stop there. For the first time ever, developers can get access to Raw PPG, Accelerometer and Temperature data streams from the Ring AIR. Ultrahuman invites developers to build bespoke algorithms on top of these data streams from the Ring AIR using UltraSignal, Ultrahuman Ring AIR’s developer platform. UltraSignal will help fuel more customization and innovation in health. Developers can build custom algorithms for Sleep, Stress, Movement, Fertility and more, creating their own Powerplug. About Ultrahuman Ultrahuman is the world's most advanced metabolic fitness platform. Ultrahuman’s products include the Ultrahuman M1(continuous glucose monitoring sensor), the Ultrahuman Ring and Blood Vision, a preventive blood testing platform with the pioneering UltraTrace™ technology. By collating different biomarkers, Ultrahuman is helping people improve their energy levels and lifestyle, track their workout, sleep and recovery, and avoid metabolic disorders.

Snapchat Releases New Teen Safety Measures

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/7Hv0EHNRJ_g The digital world can be a challenge to navigate, and helping keep teens safe online is not just a priority—it’s a necessity. Snapchat is working to make its app even safer—now expanding a range of features to help keep Snapchat a place where people can be comfortable expressing themselves with the friends they know in real life. These extra protections for young people are more than a tech upgrade—they’re part of Snapchat’s ongoing commitment to building tools to help users connect with friends in a safe, secure way. Rachel Hochhauser, Snap’s Head of Safety Operations Outreach, conducted a nationwide media tour on June 25th to discuss these new features. Topics and features she discussed included: · Expanded In-app Warnings Teens will now see a warning message if they receive a chat from someone who’s been blocked or reported by others or is from a region where the teen’s network isn't typically located – signs that the person may be a stranger. · Simplified Location-Sharing Expansion of reminders to make sure Snapchatters are always up to date on which friends they’re sharing their location with on the Snap Map. · Enhanced Friending Protections These protections prevent certain suspicious friend requests from getting to teens in the first place, further reducing teens’ ability to connect with people they may not know in real life. · Blocking Improvements Improvements aim to prevent bullying and repeated harassment by limiting outreach from any new accounts created by someone who’s been blocked.
