Apple revealed a new medication tracking tool and more health-related features at its Worldwide Developers Conference previewing its watchOS 9 and iOS 16.
The Medications feature, available on both the Apple Watch and iPhone in the Health app, will allow users to manage their medications, vitamins and supplements. They can use the camera to scan a pill bottle to import information, and set up schedules and receive alerts to take their medications on time.
In the U.S., users can also receive alerts about possible drug interactions if they upload a new medication that could react poorly with one of their current medications. The tool also works with health sharing, so family members can share medication data with loved ones alongside other health metrics.
