You can even chose an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trackershowdown.com\/can-you-wear-a-fitness-tracker-on-your-ankle\/\">ankle bracelet<\/a>, a <a href=\"https:\/\/de.mymotiv.com\/the-ring\/\">smart ring<\/a>, or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Spire-Stone-Management-Activity-Tracker\/dp\/B00TH3SQOI\">belt magnetic pedometer<\/a>.

Why I like it so much? Well, because it&#8217;s automatic therefore I don&#8217;t need to charge it, it&#8217;s fashionable with an old school allure, it&#8217;s reliable and it&#8217;s blue. Going back to my search for a smart fitness tracker I realized that a fitness bracelet will not fit at all with the style of my favourite traditional watch. This is how I got to discover the ankle bracelets or the smart ring. Still, somehow they don&#8217;t manage to tempt me that much. Then during a rough morning, the following idea stroke me:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What if the bracelet of my traditional watch was &#8216;smart&#8217;?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Could a\u00a0fitness tracker be designed as a bracelet for traditional watches, being capable to measure my movements, my heart rate and store them into the cloud or in Google Fit? I suppose the answer is easily yes, we already have the technology for it, it&#8217;s just that this option is not yet on the market. It doesn&#8217;t even need to have a display, everything could be tracked on the smartphone. It doesn&#8217;t need to look &#8216;smart&#8217; or &#8216;high tech&#8217;, it can simply look as it&#8217;s looking now but have this smartness incorporated into it. At least personally I would prefer for my watch to remain traditional, both because of it&#8217;s looks and it&#8217;s functionality but I would enhance it with a fitness tracker for traditional watches. I really don&#8217;t need another device that I have to charge periodically. Still, I am tempted of the benefits of fitness bracelet. The temptation is not that big, I will not start using a smart watch just for that, still, if I could have a bracelet for it that would do limited smart tracking functions, I believe that would be a win-win situation at least for myself. If the bracelet would also charge automatically, it would be literally perfect, but I wouldn&#8217;t mind chagrin<span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\">g<\/span> it every now and then.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>What do you think, could you design it and make a smart fitness tracker bracelet for traditional watches?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I recently searched for a fitness bracelet that would be able to track my daily movements and my heart rate and store [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":169,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[84,82,35,20,47,83],"tags":[88,85,89,90,91,86,87],"class_list":["post-163","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fitness-bracelet","category-fitness-tracker","category-google","category-googleassistant","category-iot-2","category-smart-watches","tag-automatic-watch","tag-fitness-tracker","tag-google-fit","tag-heart-monitoring","tag-pedometer","tag-smart-watch","tag-traditional-watch"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 -
