Apple’s Health App to Become Your ‘Personal Doctor’: Users to Receive Health Tips on Demand; Feature Expected on iPhone 17 by September
Tech giant Apple is set to introduce an AI-powered doctor feature in its iPhone Health app. This new addition will provide users with 24/7 personalized health tips, revolutionizing the app’s functionality.
Personalized Health Tips from Apple Watch, AirPods, and More
The health recommendations will be generated using data collected from Apple Watch, AirPods, and other connected devices. Developed under the Mulberry Project, this feature is currently in the training phase and is expected to roll out by September 2025.
AI Doctor to Analyze Health Data and Offer Customized Advice
Apple’s AI doctor will analyze users’ heart rate, blood pressure, and daily routines to provide tailored diet, exercise, and sleep recommendations. The AI is being trained by Apple’s in-house medical professionals, with plans to involve external doctors in the near future.
Users Can Ask Health-Related Questions
The updated Health app may include an interactive AI model, designed to function like a virtual assistant that answers users’ health-related questions. Apple is reportedly searching for a renowned medical expert to shape this AI-driven experience.
New AI Health Facility in California
To support this initiative, Apple has established a new facility in Oakland, California, focused on creating video content for the Health app. The company aims to offer personalized health guidance, similar to real doctor consultations. The project is being led by Dr. Sumbul Desai and Apple COO Jeff Williams.
Expected Announcement at WWDC 2025
The AI-powered Health app is expected to be introduced with iOS 19.4 and could be showcased at Apple’s WWDC (Worldwide Developers Conference) in June 2025. The stable version will be available for iPhone 17 users by September 2025.
