Apple’s new release features Mayo app

Apple has partnered with the Mayo Clinic to introduce a new app called HealthKit, which will give users a comprehensive medical view on their mobile devices. The app will gather healthcare data from various sources including third-party apps and share it with other apps. However, this data-sharing raises concerns about security and privacy. Apple executives claim that privacy and security concerns have been addressed, but it is up to consumers to approve data-sharing and they have no way of knowing the security levels of different apps.
