Livestream Your Health Stats Straight From Your Apple Watch.
Heartwitch is a combination Apple Watch and Web App for sharing your health data online.
Video game live streaming has become a mainstream form of entertainment, with viewers liking to see how streamers behave and react to gameplay. With Heartwitch, viewers can see how the streamer reacts on a physical level.
See the streamerβs heart rate shift when hiding from a monster, driving a racecar around a tight bend, or as their favorite character dies in their arms.
