In the market for smart watches there is an absolute winner, what hurts makes it a void compared to the competition and it is the Apple Watch.
Apple’s smartwatch today represents 33% of the market share by the number of products sold, but if we look at the turnover, the results would be even more surprising.
Just for comparison, behind Apple, which has a 33% stake, is Huawei, which has just over 8%, closely followed by Samsung with a nearly identical stake.
This means that Chinese and Koreans together make up half of Americans: how can this distance be justified?
The success of Apple’s smartwatch has very distant roots, but its foundation is above all in quality and ease of use.
These are the ingredients that the large company has also put in place to measure sleep, which he talks about MisterGadget.Tech, an issue on which he has focused many of his efforts, the results of which are evident in the latest Apple Watch model and in the new version of the software.
Night monitoring is not in itself a relevant novelty, for years it has also been offered by many other devices on the market, but in this case there is a different approach.
Apple has developed a series of measures of time and the way we sleep: this data can also be shared with other applications dedicated to health and well-being, if the user wishes.
We cannot speak of simple sleep monitoring, because Apple Watch does something different: it helps create a routine that accompanies the user to bed, promoting their goals related to rest.
When we speak of routine, we refer to a series of programmable actions, which help to get closer to the time when you go to sleep, activating a series of multiple variables, such as the reduction of ringtones, the lowering of the lights of the house if you use smart home products, the programming of a dedicated music playlist and other details that can bring you closer to the moment of rest, implementing a true “slowdown” of activities.
The Sleep app experience includes bedtime reminders, alarms, sleep tracking, sleep mode, relaxation, and a view of your sleep trends over time.
The introduction of sleep-related functions at first left us a bit perplexed: if the watch is supposed to be used even at night, when will it be possible to charge it?
Apple emphasizes with just one hour of charging the Apple Watch 6 reaches 80%: in practice, it would be enough to take advantage of the time available between returning home and bedtime to be able to wear the watch even at night.
All the information is collected in the sleep application, the same one that is used to configure the alarms, which can be customized day by day.
In the morning, when we wake up, we can find a good day directly on the clock screen with the main indications about the appointments of the day and the scheduled time.
The details that are measured can be shared with many other applications, including SleepCycle, Loona, Autosleep, and Sleepiest.
Apple Music offers some playlists dedicated to relaxation, the use of which has grown exponentially over the course of 2020, while Apple’s podcasts offer content created to aid relaxation.
Those who own a smart home with some home automation solutions ask their watch to dim the lights and create a suitable environment for relaxation.
If it is true that the quality of sleep is essential to live better days, our smartwatch can be a valid ally to improve your nights and wake up with a greater energy load.
