Smart watches today exceed expectations in sports and health tracking. Companies that want to provide users with more data on health are coming up with new features.

Apple Watch 8 family will not have a blood pressure sensor
According to the report of Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, blood pressure monitoring will be possible in Apple’s smart watch, which will be released in 2024. It is estimated that the company will develop a model that can only measure blood pressure.
It is stated that it is not possible for the sensors and technologies required for blood pressure monitoring to be ready before 2024. It is among the leaked information that there is a team working on this issue at Apple and that there is a problem in monitoring high blood pressure.
Allegedly, Apple is seeking different solutions for some health technologies that require monthly calibration. It is known that there is a team working to add blood sugar monitoring to Apple’s wearable devices. However, this feature is expected to be available to users in a few years.
The Health app on iPhone will get new features such as advanced sleep tracking, medication management and women’s health. The medication management feature will allow you to scan your pill boxes with the app. In this way, users will not miss medication hours.
It is claimed that a body temperature sensor will be used in the Apple Watch family, which will be introduced this year. It is speculated that this feature will first be used to assist with family planning.
Apple will launch three new smartwatches this year, including a standard Watch 8, Watch SE, and a “luxury model with a rugged case aimed at athletes.” Also new in watchOS 9 will be a low-power mode, which allows the smartwatch to run a limited number of apps and features using less battery.
