The UK Department of Health has launched a new iPhone application to help people keep track of their drinking during the festive period.
This is the first official alcohol tracker app for mobile phones and is available from iTunes and the NHS Choices website. It allows people to work out how many alcoholic units there are in a glass of wine or pint of beer for example; see how much alcohol they have consumed over a set period, such as a week or month; get personalized feedback on their drinking habits; and find local NHS clinics and advice centres.
Meanwhile, New Media Age (NMA) reports that Channel 4's Innovation for Public Fund (4iP) has launched an iPhone app called 'You Booze, You Looze.' The app allows iPhone users to monitor alcohol consumption and has been created by Digital Goldfish.
