Goals

You are only asked to set a step goal during the initial setup process, which defaults to 8,000. You can adjust this at any time in the app's menu.

Comparing data

When viewing trends for a particular activity, you can control what to compare. For example, here my step activity is compared to my burned calories.

Health coach

You can sign up to have a personal health coach monitor and provide advice based on your Argus feed. But doing so will set you back $50 a month.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
