Apple Intelligence comes to the Health app: these are all the new features

Apple is going to bring Apple Intelligence to the places where it can make the most sense: our health. With iOS 27, the Health app turns data from our iPhone and Apple Watch into clear, easy-to-understand insights. As Apple Intelligence evolves in iOS 27, soon we’ll go from checking metrics to receiving truly personalized guidance.

Insights and Readiness: our data gains context

Insights summarizes our sleep, heart, and activity data, while Personal Guidance adapts recommendations to our activity. Readiness, meanwhile, combines activity, vitals, and rest into a score from 0 to 10 to recommend anything from rest to going all out. 

With the Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4, heart rate is measured every five seconds and HRV gains more detail, so they’ll benefit the most from information that can change during the day and clearly guide us on what to do.

Longevity and Health Age look at the long term

Longevity brings together heart, sleep, mental well-being, movement, metabolism, hearing, and nutrition data to see how we’re doing over the long term. 

Similarly, Health Age compares our VO2 max, resting heart rate, HRV, sleep, and biomarkers with our age to indicate our body’s biological age.

Tests, analysis, and more tracking

Soon we’ll be able to add tests and, in the United States, buy a Quest lab test with more than 50 biomarkers for $119. Meanwhile, using the iPhone camera, the Health app will let us assess our VO2 max, strength, balance, and flexibility, all with local, on-demand processing.

The new Health app will launch at the end of 2026, first in U.S. English, and will progressively expand from there. A huge step that turns our data into a much more complete picture of our health and of how to take care of it.
