It includes everything from how many steps you've taken in a day to how long you were actually sleeping for in bed (letting users know how much time was simply spent lying there too). This information is taken from a number of sources, including [fitness apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/health-tracking1) and social media sites. The overall goal for the app is to help users improve their lives by examining the cold-hard data. By seeing where one's time is spent and representing it in a visual manner, the developers are hoping people will implement any changes necessary. The life-tracking app Exist is currently only available through a Backers Campaign. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 38% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Personal Analytics:** Develop personal analytics apps that track daily events and provide visual representations to help individuals optimize their time. - **Integrated Data Sources:** Integrate data from various sources, such as fitness and social media apps, to provide a comprehensive view of individual activity. - **Backers Campaigns:** Create fundraising campaigns to release new apps and boost consumer engagement. ### Who This Affects Most - **Health and Wellness:** Develop analytical tools that allow fitness and wellness practitioners to provide clients with personalized recommendations based on data collected through life-tracking apps. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Leverage data collected through life-tracking apps to provide targeted advertising and personalized product recommendations. - **Technology:** Invest in the development of more user-friendly and versatile life-tracking apps that are integrated with multiple data sources. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Personal Tracking Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/long-ago.md) - [Daily Activity-Tracking Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heydai.md) - [App Activity Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tracks-apps.md) - [Efficiency-Focused Daily Planners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lifelog.md) - [Well-Being Habit Tracker Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stand-8-app.md) - [Holistic Lifestyle Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/self-sport.md) - [Relationship Tracker Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baza.md) - [Productivity Tracking Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weeks-life.md) - [Simple Activity Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/activity-journey.md)
