"We're excited to expand our reach to Tactio's health-minded users," said Adam Lin, GM of iHealth Lab. "Our companies share the same impassioned audience of men and women ranging from 35 to 55 years old who seek to balance their busy work and family lives with their desire to change their lifestyles to live happier and healthier lives."

To begin using the TargetWeight Pro app with iHealth devices today, simply press the "Share to TargetWeight" button within the iHealth apps and health data will be securely transferred. The integration also supports multi-user accounts. Users will also soon have the option of setting up automatic updates, which will immediately import any new data from iHealth devices each time TargetWeight apps are launched.
