“Participants on the Research app have the opportunity to make a tremendous impact that could lead to new discoveries and help millions lead healthier lives," Apple COO Jeff Williams said in a statement.

The Apple Heart and Movement Study is conducted together with Brigham and Women’s Hospital and the American Heart Association. It will measure how "the quality and quantity of a person’s movement can provide insight into their current and future health status." Users will be able to participate through the Research app on iPhone, as well as by recording workouts on Apple Watch Series 1 or later.
