Comments: KYND stands for Know Your Numbers Dashboard. This app is most useful for people who want to measure and manage their wellness and find out if changes they make improve their health. Users can record their own wellness scores, to make informed choices and track their journey. These scores include measurements such as weight, blood pressure, HbA1c (for diabetes), how users are feeling, how much they are drinking and smoking and how much their environment or workplace might be impacting their health. Overall, I really enjoyed using this app and learning about different aspects of wellness that could be measured and improved. They content is well organised, and clearly written by a dedicated team of health professionals.
Safety concerns: No. The app has been developed by a team of health professionals, doctors, psychologists and designers who are committed to giving people access to their own data so they can track their progress.
New Zealand relevance: Relevant to a New Zealand audience.

Comments: I liked that it is a place to store all my health measurements so I don't lose them. The app provided me with information that was easy to understand about each risk factor and then told me what my measurements meant and what I could do about them.
