Sharecare: Track Health Goals, Biometrics, and Access Wellness Resources

Sharecare is a digital health platform that helps people take a more active role in managing their overall wellbeing. The app brings together health tracking, wellness programs, personalized content, and disease management resources in one place. Many employers and health insurance plans offer Sharecare as part of their wellness benefits, sometimes with incentives like gift cards or lower insurance premiums for completing health activities.

One of Sharecare's most well-known features is its RealAge test — a scientifically validated questionnaire that estimates your biological age (how old your body actually is in terms of health) compared to your calendar age. The RealAge test looks at factors like your exercise habits, diet, sleep, stress levels, and medical history to give you a personalized health age. Many people are motivated by seeing how lifestyle changes can lower their RealAge over time.

The app also has a daily habit tracking section where you can log steps, water intake, sleep, meals, mindfulness, and other healthy behaviors. Sharecare connects with wearables like Fitbit, Apple Watch, and Garmin, so your activity data can flow in automatically without manual logging.

For people managing chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or COPD, Sharecare offers dedicated programs with educational content, tracking tools, and coaching resources. These programs are particularly valuable for people who want guidance between doctor visits on managing their day-to-day health.

If your employer or insurance plan includes Sharecare, many of the premium features are available to you at no additional cost. Check with your HR department or insurance provider to see if Sharecare is part of your benefits package before creating a personal account.
