Health app and services. In the process, the FuelBand app also dropped what has long been a requirement for the app to function: the
Nike FuelBand itself. Accordingly, the app is now just "Nike+ Fuel".</p> <!--break--> <p>Users of the
iPhone 5s and newer can now use the built-in constant motion tracking of the M-series co-processor to log their activity information in the form of NikeFuel points in both the FuelBand app and into Health.</p> <p>The move to drop the requirement for the FuelBand isn't a huge surprise, given that the most recent FuelBand edition was announced back in October of 2013, followed by
Nike closing their hardware development shop in April of last year.</p> <p>Apart from Health integration and dropping the FuelBand tracker requirement, the FuelBand app also includes a new feed tracker that pulls in integrations with Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Nike+ (and posts out to them) to create something of a meta social experience.</p> <ul><li>Free - <a href="
