Why Apple Watch

The ultimate device for a healthy life.

Apple Watch can do what your other devices can’t because it’s on your wrist. When you wear it, you get meaningful health insights, a fitness partner that measures all the ways you move, a connection to the people you care about most, and advanced safety features.

Health

You snooze. You win.

The Sleep app not only tracks your sleep, it helps you create a bedtime routine and schedule. See the time you spent in REM, Core, and Deep sleep, as well as when you might have woken up. And get notified if you show signs of possible sleep apnea.1

Better understand your daily health status.

With the Vitals app, you can quickly see your key overnight health metrics right on your watch — including heart rate, respiratory rate, wrist temperature, and sleep duration.2 For a more holistic understanding of your daily health status.

It has your heart in mind.

Unusually high or low heart rates and irregular heart rhythms (known as arrhythmias) could be signs of a serious condition.3 But many people don’t recognize the symptoms, so the underlying causes often go undiagnosed. Notifications in the Heart Rate app will alert you to these irregularities so you can take action and consult your doctor.

ECG on your wrist. Anytime, anywhere.

With the ECG app, Apple Watch is capable of generating an ECG similar to a single-lead electrocardiogram.4 It’s a momentous achievement for a wearable device that can provide critical data for doctors and peace of mind for you.

Understand your cycle like never before.

Apple Watch has an innovative sensor that tracks your temperature while you sleep.5 Cycle Tracking uses this data to provide a retrospective estimate of when you have likely ovulated, which can be helpful for family planning.6 As always, your data is private and secure.

Fitness and Activity

Move. Exercise. Stand.
Reach your goals, one ring at a time.

The Activity app shows your daily activity, including your active calories, total steps, and workouts completed. Customize your goals for each day of the week so you can close your rings every day. If you need to take a break, you can now put your rings on pause —while keeping your award streak going.

Measure all the ways you move.

From strength training and HIIT to Pilates and yoga, Apple Watch offers a healthy range of ways to track your workout. And it shows your progress with advanced metrics and views like Heart Rate Zones, Power, and Elevation.

A new tool to help you achieve your goals.

Training load helps you see how the intensity and duration of your workouts may impact your body over time. So you can make informed decisions about how and when to adjust your workouts — especially when you’re training for a big event.

Built to go the distance. And depth.

Apple Watch is perfect for hiking, biking, and running as well as swimming, surfing, and other water activities. The new depth gauge, Depth app, and water temperature sensor on Series 10 make it great for snorkeling down to 6 meters. Or scuba dive to 40 meters with Ultra 2.7

Hit the trail with offline maps.

Now you can see detailed hiking maps for all U.S. national parks with the Maps app. Create your own hiking routes and download them to your iPhone for easy access later. They’ll automatically download to your watch so you can even navigate offline.8

Connectivity

Stay in touch from your wrist.

Text, make calls, and listen to music with ease. With cellular, you can do it all without your phone,9 even when you’re out of the country. It makes leaving your phone behind something you can do on purpose.

More intelligent than ever.

The Smart Stack automatically suggests widgets to surface the most relevant information throughout the day based on the time, your location, and more. So you’ll know if rain is coming, a meeting is about to start, or your Uber is pulling up. Traveling in another country? Your watch will intelligently add the Translate widget to your Smart Stack for you.
