Microsoft is the latest company to join the fitness app trend by releasing the Bing Health & Fitness Windows Phone app.
Initially released in beta format through the Windows store, the pre-release version offers a combination of fitness, health and nutrition-tracking features.
The app includes more than 100,000 foods to track the user's daily calorie routine, nutrition information for more than 300,000 food items, health indicators, symptom checker, information on human body in a 3D visualisation, exercise tracker along with video browsing for workouts and yoga poses.
The app was originally launched with Windows 8.1 in 2013 and will be the see the existing software jump from the desktop OS to mobile devices.
GPS functionality is also included to monitor the user's time, distance, pace, and calories burned during a workout, as well as an interactive symptom checker.
Bing Health & Fitness is the latest Microsoft app to be branded under the Bing search engine, following the launch earlier this year of Bing Food & Drink and Bing Travel, which were both released as beta products for testing too. The apps join Bing Weather, Bing Sports, Bing Finance and Bing News on the store.
With fitness apps a highly popular trend, Google is also rumoured to be incorporating health-tracking features into its Android operating system. In January, references to an “Android Fitness API” were discovered in the code for the latest version of Google’s Android software.
