Not a medical device
Vitality Tracker — the website, the web app, the mobile app and Vitality Tracker devices — is a wellness service. It gives general health, fitness, nutrition and wellness information for your own education. It is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or condition, and it is not a substitute for advice from a doctor or other qualified health professional.
Scores and estimates are estimates
Vitality Tracker turns readings from you, your phone, your wearables and connected services into scores and estimates, including:
- Capacity, sleep scores and the Vitality Score;
- the Symptoms screen and its illness signals, which suggest you may be under strain or coming down with something;
- Metabolic Age, Vascular Age and Body age;
- body composition results and reports, which are estimates from bioelectrical impedance and from your scale;
- blood pressure categories, glucose summaries and glucose alerts;
- AI explanations ("Ask Eir").
These come from consumer devices and published research models. They can be wrong or missing, they are not measured the way a clinic measures, and the same name may mean something different in a medical setting. A "normal" result does not mean you are healthy, and a worrying one does not mean you are ill.
Talk to a professional
Always ask your doctor or another qualified health professional about any question you have about a medical condition, your health, your nutrition or a training program — and before you make a medical decision, start or stop a medication, or change your treatment. Never ignore professional advice, or delay seeking it, because of something Vitality Tracker shows.
Glucose alerts are a convenience. They do not replace the alarms in your glucose sensor's own app, and the app cannot alert you reliably while it is closed.
In an emergency
Vitality Tracker does not monitor you and cannot call for help. If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your local emergency number straight away — 111 in New Zealand.
