After on stage showing at iPhone 5s debut Nike Move app goes live
According to Nike, the app harnesses data from the M7 chip to "capture your every move," turning the information into "Nike Fuel," a unit of measurement the company uses to track daily activity levels. Nike Fuel is used in a range of products, including the Nike FuelBand SE wearable fitness tracker.
From the release notes:
- Nike+ Move offers insight into when you move, how you move and where you move - and lets you challenge your friends to see who moves more.
- Win the day by beating your NikeFuel average and watch your goal ring change from Red to Green.
- See when you are most active throughout the day and how youre doing compared to yesterday.
- Move more often and win as many hours as you can throughout the day.
- See how you moved through the day with a breakdown of running, walking, and other movement.
- See where youre moving and where you move the most each day.
Because the app takes advantage of the M7 motion coprocessor, compatibility is currently limited to the iPhone 5s.
- Check out how you compare against your Game Center friends or other Nike+ Move users near you.
A number of other developers have already tapped the M7s motion tracking prowess, as seen inAppleInsiders fitness app roundup, though Nikes app allows users to incorporate data generated by the iPhone 5s with other products in the expanding Nike+ ecosystem.
