Azumio's Argus Motion Tracking App Now Optimized For The New iPhone 5S And M7

PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Azumio, the leading provider of consumer health and fitness apps, today announced that its most recent app, Argus, is now optimized for the new iPhone 5S – enabling daily motion tracking without draining your battery and updating for iOS7 designs. First introduced in July, Argus is the first app that provides a unified picture of your health and fitness, while it monitors and manages your fitness, running, biking, food, sleep patterns, exercise, hydration, caffeine-consumption, weight and vitals. Since launch, the free app has been helping users make sense of data from other Azumio apps, data from a variety of other 3^rd party health and fitness apps and wearable devices.

The new optimization for iPhone 5S with M7 allows for better activity tracking and less battery consumption. It also automatically tracks a user's activities without prompting, whether it's running, walking, driving or sleeping.  The Argus app automatically pulls together tracked data into a thumbnail-sized honeycomb display that can be expanded to view detailed information.  Argus allows you to share data with a handful of selected friends and family as well as view their data to help each other achieve health and fitness goals.  Argus also updates its timeline instantly, incorporating data fed from connected apps, hardware and wearable devices.

"We are pleased with the response the Argus has received from consumers, and this new update takes the functionality one step further to make it one of the most streamlined, comprehensive health and fitness apps," said Peter Kuhar, CTO of Azumio. "Now that Argus is optimized for iOS 7 and Apple's new M7 Motion Coprocessor it will be even more seamless and intuitive to use."
