Q: Why was the dashboard removed from Health Data app in IOs 10?
Why was the dashboard removed from Health Data app in IOs 10?
The new Health Data App in IOS 10 does not open to the dashboard where one could select the graphs from several of the categories to be displayed above each other for convenient comparison. Now, only today's numbers or the week's average is displayed and one has to go in several screens to display just one graph. Also, entry of new numbers manually was made more awkward as the click button to add data was removed. Now one has to realize that the + in the upper right corner was the entry access.
iPhone 6, iOS 10.0.2

I agree. The "redesigned" health app is nowhere near as useful as the old one. I enjoyed being able to easily see a single dashboard containing graphs for the stats I wanted to track all on a single screen. I no longer have that ability. And have gained absolutely nothing useful in its place.
The most ironic part of this? They still show the dashboard in an image on their site http://www.apple.com/ios/health/
hopefully that that means it is coming back, but more likely it is an oversight.
