For what it's worth, United Healthcare's Motion program supports Fitbit, Garmin, Samsung, Apple Watch, and more: https://www.mobihealthnews.com/content/unitedhealthcare-adds...

UHC is the U.S.'s largest insurer, and they claim to have validation data that shows this program saves money.

UHC's Motion program is an incentive program for higher value employees.

It's more of a perk for the c-suite or law partners than a serious attempt to improve health.
