We have had several requests over the years to put some of our health tools into a portable format. So we did it. We took five of our most popular health calculators, then created a brand new one and bundled them together to create HealthCalcs, the iPhone app. At this point in time Apple is in the review process with the app, and it should be available on the App Store with a few hours. So without further ado, we introduce – HealthCalcs!
The five existing calculators that we included are the Calories Burned Calculator, the Ideal Weight Calculator, the Body Mass Index or BMI Calculator, Body Fat Estimator, and the Blood Alcohol Estimator. Over the years these have been our most popular calculators. Several business analysts, told us not to put ALL the best calculators on, they said, hold a couple back, then you will have something left for the next app you release. Well, that isn’t how we roll around here, and to take it to a new level, we even included a new calculator called Lose How Much? I will tell you about it later.
Our Calories Burned Calculator takes all the best features of our web based tool and implements them on the iPhone. None of this one activity at a time thing, and we put our biggest list of activities on that we have ever released. You push the slider across for the number of minutes you have done an activity, and it instantly totals into the large calories burned number near the top of the screen. Keep adding activities that you do in a day/week and find your total. Do you know someone that is a little OCD on brushing their teeth? Show them how many calories they burn in that daily 30 minute (or more) ritual of scrubbing their pearly whites.
