Opinion: Nokia hasn’t been healthy for Withings, Apple should consider HealthKit hardware<div class="feat-image">
</div><p>Nokia’s ownership of Withings has been incredibly messy. After
buying Withings in mid-2016, Nokia
sued Apple over unrelated patents which resulted in Withings digital health products being
pulled from the Apple Store.</p>
<p>While that dispute has since been
resolved, Nokia now says it is reviewing its digital health business altogether. The result could be positive or negative for Withings customers depending on where ownership lands.</p>
<p>As a Withings customer myself, my hope is that Apple buys the digital health product business from Nokia — if only to do the bare minimum to maintain hardware that works with Apple HealthKit.</p>
