What agency or company created each app? Describe whether these institutions and their technology are trustworthy or not and why. 
Describe the behavior change theory/theories that are evident in the apps/devices and which features are theoretically-based. Be sure to cite the theoretical evidence.
Describe if the features are effective, based on both the research and based on your personal use of the app/device.
Investigate the apps' ethics and policies around your data and how/if they keep your information secure.
What features do they provide around interoperability (Links to an external site.)?
What are your final conclusions on the apps' effectiveness and what results did you have from using them?
