Jawbone has released a new Up app for the iPhone. The new HealthKit-connected app tracks a user’s food intake and physical activity, and then delivers advice to the user based on the data.

The new Up app is separate from Jawbone’s other Up app, and doesn’t require the use of the company’s fitness tracker devices. The app can also share data with other HealthKit enabled apps.
Up examines meal data logged during the day, and then makes nutritional suggestions based on that data. Data from workouts is also collected and can then be used to help set fitness goals. Users can also log their sleep using the Up app, allowing the data to be analyzed and used to provide advice on sleep adjustments.
The app also includes social media capabilities, allowing you share Up-based info and achievements via Facebook, Twitter, email and messaging.
Up by Jawbone is available FREE for the iPhone in the App Store. [DIRECT LINK]
