Apple Health vs. Forma Life Benefits Platform

I would recommend it as a tool to use in addition to other fitness/health tracking tools. I use other health apps as well (C25K, LoseIt, SleepIQ, Nike Run Club). I'd say its a tool among tools - not the end all be all tool. I do think the Apple Health Ecosystem (Apple Watch, iPhone) is unmatched.

I think Forma is pretty clear on the intention of using the funds to either positively contribute to your health or getting out with your friends and family. It takes some sting out of extracurricular activities that can, otherwise, be expensive. I think some people have tried to use it for stuff other than what it is intended for. This goes back to people not knowing which businesses will be considered acceptable to use Forma at.

• I'd like see more robust tracking of foods/diet - this is a personal request - not necessarily driven by work issues, but calorie tracking would be a nice addition.
• I find the "summary screen" to be convoluted and not compatible between other Apple Health Users - this is mainly due to differences in generations of Apple hardware.
• I'd like to see a universal comparison of days for all metrics (Active Energy, Steps, Calories burned etc.

Incentivized

• Clarification on what places accept Forma
• Not sure if there's an app, but if not, that would be helpful for checking balances

I've used Garmin and Fitbit - admittedly it's been a long time and those were early generations of a product - but the Apple Health devices that are available in todays climate are far superior to those initial devices that served very limited roles (only steps tracking). The heart rate monitoring/active energy calculations/etc all blow those early devices out of the water.

I have not used anything similar to Forma in the past.

• Apple Products are inherently expensive - but for the most part employees are motivated to pay for them.
• From a business perspective, we pay for the Apple iPhones, but the Apple Watch is left to the employee
• I think that it improves employee moral when comparing and having a healthy competition between employees.

Incentivized

• Allows employees access to wellness products
• Works in tandem with our other health-related programs
• Provides a great incentive for our teams to strive for better health
