Healthcare software development is making major strides every year, leading to the release of a wide range of helpful apps for both physical and mental health. Having access to these resources on your phone allows you to keep an eye on your health without taking time out of your day.
In this article, we’ll take a look at three of the most exciting women’s health apps available on mobile devices in 2021.
Sleep Cycle
A typical adult needs somewhere between seven and nine hours of sleep per night, yet the average American doesn’t even get six hours. Getting more sleep—and more consistent sleep—can lead to a variety of benefits including improvements in memory, focus, and energy.
The Sleep Cycle app automatically monitors your sleeping habits and tracks your movements during the night to identify the right time to wake you up. Waking up at the ideal time in your sleep cycle makes it easy to get out of bed without feeling overly groggy.
Headspace
Headspace is one of the most popular meditation apps, and it’s a great way to introduce yourself to meditation. While it also contains some features for sleep, you can simply use it for meditation if you’d prefer.
The free Basics course from Headspace is specifically designed for people who don’t have previous experience with meditation. The paid subscription introduces additional meditations, sleep exercises, bedtime sounds, and other helpful features, but you can spend some time with the free option before deciding whether to commit to a premium plan.
Mint
It’s easy to procrastinate when it comes to creating a budget, but the benefits of budgeting are difficult to overstate. Once you have a clear budget in place, you’ll be able to track your spending, identify bad habits, and make the necessary changes.
Mint gives users more control over their budgets with custom categories, automatic activity monitoring, tracking for bills and other regular payments, and a wide range of other features. It’s the perfect first step for anyone who’s new to the idea of budgeting and wants to take a more proactive approach to their finances.
If you aren’t using your phone to improve your health, you’re missing out on the opportunity to build better habits with respect to both physical and mental health—keep in mind that improving your financial outlook can also reduce stress and help you escape the paycheck to paycheck cycle. These are just a few of the top apps for women to use in 2021.
