Great potential of "The App."

There are many adanvatges of mobile apps that you cannot benefit from the same way on a desktop or laptop. One example of that is the FitBit which is a fitness tracking piece of hardware that measures your steps and other physical activities. The first generation device was able to record information and, once connected to a computer, send that information to a website where a user can then analyze their historical data. Later generations of the hardware and companion software allowed the FitBit hardware to connect to a smartphone via bluetooth low energy and record data real time to a mobile application. This added value in their product by eliminating the hassle of having to plugin the device in every time a user wanted view their data. This could be a great way to teach kids at the middle school and high school level to incorporate mobile technology with their exercise programs and staying fit for life.
