A recent Asianet Newsable report finds that 50% of Indian consumers are using AI‑driven wellness applications, even as many express doubts about their reliability.
A survey highlighted by Asianet Newsable reveals that half of Indian consumers have adopted AI‑enabled wellness solutions such as health‑tracking, meditation and fitness recommendation apps. The data points to a growing acceptance of artificial‑intelligence tools in personal health management across the country.
Despite the high adoption rate, the same study indicates a lingering mistrust among users. Many respondents voiced concerns over data privacy, algorithmic accuracy and the credibility of health advice generated by these platforms.
Industry analysts note that the paradox reflects both the convenience offered by AI wellness services and the nascent stage of regulatory frameworks governing digital health in India. Companies are urged to strengthen transparency and security measures to bridge the trust gap.
The findings underscore a pivotal moment for the Indian digital health market, where consumer enthusiasm must be balanced with robust safeguards to sustain long‑term growth.
