Apple might be looking to expand the services of its Health app. In his Power On newsletter, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman writes that Apple is planning to offer an "Instacart-like" grocery service with nutrition data integrated into the Health app. Alongside that, Apple is reportedly planning to expand the workout types it offers on Apple Fitness+ when iOS 16 launches later this year. Gurman noted the service might be potentially complex and "fairly low-margin."
