5 features on your smartwatch you should know about

Find your phone: In our hectic lives, there could be times when you might have misplaced your phone. But instead of panicking and checking every nook and conner manually, there’s a far easier way to search for the phone. All you have to do is tap on your smartwatch and it rings your smartphone even if it’s on silent mode. Furthermore, if the wristwatch senses that you have misplaced your phone, it will prompt you to download the respective Find My app to retrieve it.

Help you find things: Besides phones, many of us tend to misplace our keys and devices such as earphones, and so on. Again a smartwatch can come to our help. There are several wristwatch programmes that enable you to use trackers to link your vehicle keys, smartphones, and other electrical items to your smartwatch and find them anytime you want.

Making calls: A smartwatch’s list of features includes the ability to answer calls without taking out the phone from the pocket. Anyone may make and receive calls and messages directly from the smartwatch by installing a SIM card. This is ideal for times when you don’t want to have your phone with you, such as during class or when you are out for a jog.

Timely reminders: Voice assistants not only do your bidding but can also send timely reminders for things like exercising, switching off electronic gadgets or taking medications. All you have to do is set a reminder on the smartphone app such as “switch off the stove before bed,” “take diabetic medications at 8:00 PM,” and so on.

Sleep Tracking: Track your sleep cycles, and other sleep-related metrics to get a better understanding of your overall sleep quality. Getting adequate sleep during the day is critical for our bodies to reset and replenish energy for the next day’s duties. A smartwatch can monitor your sleep cycle, sleep quality, record various stages of sleep, and also tell you how many times your sleep was disrupted.
