Is it useful for parents to watch?Try iPhone + Apple Watch "Healthcare Sharing" (operation)

The data shared from your mother's iPhone is displayed on the Sharing tab of the "Healthcare" app

Two weeks after that.If you look at the "Sharing" tab of "Healthcare" sometimes, you can see that the data is updated every day.Since there are few opportunities to contact us on a daily basis, it is safe to understand the situation in real time in this way.The most important point is that you can share information without being aware of your daily life without increasing the troublesome tasks of each other.

However, I was a little worried that the uneven time lag was uneven.Sometimes relatively recent information is displayed, and it is Zara that is not updated for 3-4 hours, and there are no updates for more than a day.

At that time, I knew that there was no problem because there was a LINE exchange in another matter, but if I couldn't get in touch, I would have been quite impatient.The information Pull from the shared side is a function you want to add.

Health condition effect of "visualization"

On the other hand, health care sharing is done without being aware of the mother and has no effect on normal life.It was the Apple Watch that had an effect.Especially in "activity", it seems to be motivated to use Apple Watch every day.

However, what my mother uses is "steps" and "walking + running distance" rather than completing the ring.She was a mother who proudly talked about her housework and work (self -employed) results, saying, "I was in the house but walked 1 km in the morning!"

With such a feeling, "Move" is generally achieved, but the challenge is "exercise".Exercise with a certain amount of exercise intensity could reduce the risk of dementia."So I walk fast when I realize, but I will return to the original way of walking."

Is it better to lower the goal value of the exercise once and have the sense of accomplishment?Or is it more effective to use "workout"?Or is it a problem not to try solving with the function of the device?

I want to avoid lowering motivation as a result, so I decided to maintain the status quo.

The "stand" seems to be able to be achieved relatively well.Most of the notifications were turned off when the first setting was set, but I left the "Stand Reminder" every hour.Because it is a basic room, I hope that it will prevent frails to prevent sitting a little.

For the notification, another "LINE" has been set to receive the notification.My mother often keeps the iPhone on the table while she is at home, so she often doesn't notice the notification.It is popular among sisters that the reply has become earlier because they will notice as soon as they receive the notification of Apple Watch.

Customization is required for shared items

Last time, when setting healthcare sharing from my mother's iPhone, I used "Display proposed topics" in the selection of shared items.Basic items can be covered in this way.

This time, we decided to add "body temperature" to this.I've been hearing the story of "sometimes a slight fever" for a long time, so I suggested that I would like to take a record.Specifically, we have purchased a smartphone linked body thermometer and set to record it with a dedicated application.It was easy to use when I tried it by my mother, so it seems okay.

Until now, when the heat continues, it seems that it was measured with a thermometer and taking notes, but it is difficult to understand even if only numbers are written on paper.However, the app can be recorded easily and correctly, and it automatically graphs, so when you go to the hospital, you can tell the numerical value, not the feeling of "occasionally", "low fever" and "continuing".can.

And this app can work with "healthcare".After setting the cooperation, add "body temperature" to the shared item of "Healthcare Sharing", you will be able to check the record of body temperature from my iPhone.

In some cases, the parent is measuring weight, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels for the management of chronic illness and health observation.If you use a smartphone linkage equipment, you can accurately convey the condition at the doctor's consultation, and you can watch the situation remotely.It is recommended that you customize and use shared items according to the situation of the user.

at the end

The interaction between the writer and my mother was always limited to the necessary information, but thanks to healthcare sharing and Apple Watch, the frequency of communication has increased a little.For the person himself, it seems to be a good experience to be able to know his condition with visualized numbers.Isn't it just a good mechanism to check your health without care?

Also, from my own experience, it may change due to continuing measurements in the long term (for example, the average daily walking distance is 6 in 2018..The one that was 8km was 7 in 2020.It's 9km).I would like to watch for a while whether something will have an effect on her mother.
