Halloween is approaching. What better way to celebrate than to ponder our own mortality? Almost kidding.
A new app called “Death Clock” is creating a lot of buzz. It claims to predict your date of death. It’s not some creepy gimmick.
“Death Clock” takes life seriously. We use AI and scientific data to make an educated guess about the exact date of the final act.
There are a lot of basic questions in the app. how old are you? Questions about blood pressure, blood sugar levels, how often you go to the doctor, how often you spend time with close friends, alcohol consumption, and exercise.
Your answers will be compared to the answers and lifespans of thousands of other people who answered similar questions in health and scientific surveys.
If you’re wondering, “Why do I want to know that?”, this app does more than just give you a harsh prediction. For example, 30 minutes of aerobic exercise can add nearly a year to the life of your watch. Reducing alcohol will take even longer. Less stress, yes, more sand in the hourglass.
A hauntingly serious countdown will show you how many days left of your current lifestyle, and another will show you how your healthy habits will impact the number of days.
A free app for making tough predictions. A premium subscription tracks your progress and how it’s impacting your longevity.
Available for iPhone and Android devices.
