"Digifit has updated its mobile fitness apps for iOS to integrate with the Withings WiFi Body Scale and Zeo Personal Sleep Coach gadgets to provide users with a single dashboard to monitor their health.\nDigifit users, who also own one or both of the third-party devices, will now be able to connect their accounts and use the Digifit dashboard to get a comprehensive look at their workouts, weight and sleep behaviors in a single view called the \"Health Triad.\"\nThe free Digifit mobile apps [iTunes link] already work to track a slew of metrics, including heart rate and calories burned, for cardio workouts, and can map runs and bike rides. The service is meant to combine the functions of multiple fitness devices \u2014 heart rate monitors and run trackers \u2014 into a single app experience. Users can purchase additional sensor hardware for more accurate tracking.\nThe Withings WiFi Body Scale is a next-gen scale that records body weight, lean and fat mass and calculates body mass index. The scale is already capable of auto-tweeting and updating Facebook. With support for the Digifit system, users can have the scale automatically share and upload their weight information to their Digifit dashboard.\nThe Zeo Personal Sleep Coach is an in-home system for tracking and analyzing sleep patterns, with online visualization tools that include a bedside display and wireless headband. This data can now also be shared with a user's Digifit dashboard.\nThe enhanced Digifit apps offer users a sophisticated health monitoring system. Of course, with the holidays upon us, it's likely a system most of us would prefer to use once we resolve to eat better, sleep more and workout harder.\nHealth and fitness apps are becoming more competitive and advanced in the ever-growing genre for mobile devices. Earlier this year, Nike released its Nike+ GPS app for runners and Runkeeper updated its app to support automatic Foursquare badges for real-world fitness accomplishments.\n\n\n\n\nImage courtesy of Flickr, whoaitsaimz"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
