The latest version of the Apple smartwatch will have a sleep tracker in it. If the user goes to sleep wearing it at night, in the morning, he will be able to know the quality of his sleep. Fitbit and Withing already offer such a feature in their smartwatches. Apple smartwatches to have allowed such predictions but via third-party apps, not directly.

If the sleep tracking feature will be there, then it will have to improve its battery life. Improved battery life will enable the watch to last a full day and the night without the need for charging.

Apple smartwatches have always been a great companion for physical fitness lovers, such as cyclists, swimmers, runners, and so on. However, those who go to gyms regularly do not find Apple watches of much use.

Apple will, for sure, change this. To bring a change, Apple has come up with the “Apple Watch Connected” initiative. This initiative is for the popular gyms and fitness studios in the United States. This new program will compel the gyms to use Apple to watch connected fitness equipment and offer reward programs based on data collection by the smartwatch.

Those gyms which will participate will offer an app for tracking the fitness progress. The gyms will also have to Apple pay to offer a rewards program. The complying gyms will also need to have equipment compatible with Apple’s Gym Kit API. The users will have to agree to opt-in. Apple automatically will not be able to gather data without the permission of the users.

Gyms like YMCA, Orange Theory, Basecamp Fitness, and Crunch Fitness are a part of this new campaign.

3. Blood sugar and blood pressure measurements:

Apple has been hiring engineers as well as clinicians to explore additional features such as blood glucose measurements and blood pressure. These features have never been able to make it in the earlier models. So, this time maybe these features will be added in the latest Apple Watch Series 6.
