Death Clock app has already been downloaded over 125,000 times, offering a unique glimpse into personalized life predictions. While some users have found the results to be optimistic, others question its accuracy when compared to traditional mortality tables.
The Death Clock app uses a huge dataset from over 1,200 studies involving 53 million participants to calculate life expectancy. Users fill out a detailed questionnaire covering demographic information, family history, mental health, chronic diseases, and lifestyle factors like diet and stress levels. Then, the app delivers a personalized prediction, with many users encouraged to make lifestyle changes to extend their lifespan.
