Saw your link, did your test and here's my feedback. No "share" or "download" button in the app? Sure, "apps are cool" and all that - but what about folks who want to archive or share their health data? AF

Can we talk about hacking, this being hackernews? A few comments claim the sensors can be triggers by non-smoking events such as hairspray, nail polish remover, perfume... If that is accurate it seems to me one could exploit that sensor fla

Yet more glossy 'form over function' nonsense from Apple in my opinion. Was hoping '26 would be the release that tackled their massive technical debt around broken/reduced functionality. I did see a Reddit post that summ
