Hyper-connected: 3 Health apps to download today

Since the smartphone and world of applications came to fruition, there hasn’t a moment in time where we have not been checking out the latest photo editing, productivity or music app to download. Beyond that though, you might to take a look at the following health-related apps that will possibly change the way you live your life to some extent.

THE FIRST APP TO OVERCOME YOUR FEARS

Named Phobious, this app uses smartphone augmented reality and capacities to help banish our biggest fears. Based on the principles of some therapies used by psychologists or in hospitals, it allows us to understand and confront the reasons for the phobia; both virtually and gradually.

Available to pre-order on iOS and Android, approx. SGD250

THE CONNECTED MULTICOOKER

Cookeo Connect of Moulinex is a small revolution. The brand’s final innovation indicates which ingredients to use and in which order and proportion, making cooking superfast. The novelty? The variety of dishes becomes almost unlimited thanks to the dedicated app, Mon Cookeo. This is regularly updated with new recipes that can be downloaded to the device. Then, the only thing left is to follow the instructions, while watching the end of the cooking process on your smartphone. Now, there’ll be no reason for not creating homemade dishes!

Available on iOS and Android from April 2015.

CREATE YOUR NETWORK IN THE HOSPITAL TO FIGHT BOREDOM

Thanks to the social network, My Hospi Friends, we can communicate virtually with hospitalised patients nearby, without leaving our bed. This is a good way to break the isolation, kill time and maybe find new affinities.
