Ever since school, wearing a watch has been the ritual, right? The era of the digital watch was really fancy for us. In contrast, with adulthood, the fancier watches became the craze. One Christmas, we got the iPhone, while the other was for investing in the Apple Watch. So, the Apple Watch is one of the best smartwatches in the whole wide world. 

First of all, Apple Watch has a myriad of safety and health features. The most noteworthy features include fall detection, heart rate monitoring, and irregular heart rate alerts. Consequently, Apple always wants to launch high-end and practical features for the users. So, this time, Apple is working on integrating the drowning alert in their smartwatch.

Patent Filing 

According to the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Apple is filing for a new patent. Furthermore, it explains how Apple wants to ensure safety by identifying if an Apple Watch wearer is drowning. Hence, Apple intends to use a new sensor for measuring the volume of the water. Even more, it shall detect if a wearer is drowning or only standing in the rain. 

First of all, the patent is about the sensor which happens to differentiate and measure the water’s volume on the Apple Watch. Furthermore, it uses the scheduling data from the calendar to see if you have plans to go swimming or diving. In contrast, the calendar data comes from the context of use. It’s possible that Apple Watch might check for the toxicity and density of water. 

Map Feature 

Similarly, with the map feature, the watch will depict if a person is around the water bodies. The water bodies include a pond, seas, rivers, and lakes. So, with the location information, Apple Watch will take the essential steps. As a result, context, location, and water body will help determine if the Apple Watch wearer is safe or not. 

It will probably use cellular data to send alerts to emergency contacts and services. This will help gain support by sharing the wearer’s location. Furthermore, there are high chances that the watch will identify the pathogens and chemicals in the water. The presence of chemicals will alert the wearer to come out of the water for safety purposes. 

Even more, Apple intends to use this data in multiple ways. First of all, the watch already has a heart-rate monitor, compass, gyro, accelerometer, ECG, and GPS. So, Apple is only trying to enhance the features by adding the water volume measurement and pathogen presence. Therefore, Apple is trying to make their watches a safety measuring device in addition to a fitness watch. 

Current Features

First of all, the current versions of Apple Watch have multiple features such as;

• Panic attack detection
• Fall detection 
• Heart rate rhythm 
• Sleep tracking
• High noise detection 

With these features, the integration of drowning features will scale up the performance. Therefore, it will become a top choice for adults. In contrast, there might be a Kids Mode and School Time features in Apple Watch OS 7. So, it will be available for kids and adults all the same. 

The Additional Features

So, the new Apple Watch is about to be launched with cutting-edge technology. In contrast, there are some features Apple Watch users intend on using in the very same watch, such as;

Battery Life

In contrast to Apple Watch 4, the battery timing of Apple Watch 5 is pretty unreliable. Because of the always-on screen, the battery life is unreliable, but one needs improvement, right?  Furthermore, the Apple Watch users want to have battery life similar to Apple 4. In contrast, the even better battery life will be a plus point. Even more, there might be asleep tracking feature, and better battery life will help! 

Fitness 

Above all, Apple Watch has been the fitness watch since the start. In contrast, there were no significant fitness features in Apple Watch 5. So, the fitness features in Apple Watch 6 shall be good. Well, there are high chances that fitness features will be there in addition to drowning sensors. 

Dimming 

With Apple Watch 5, there was an always-on screen leading to poor battery life. So, it is better to have a dimmer option, so make sure there is no bright light shoving in your eyes at night. Furthermore, the dimming option is better rather than using the complete switch-off option. Hence, it will improve battery life. 

Sleep 

First of all, the integration of the sleep tracking feature has been long asked. In contrast, Apple isn’t paying heed to the requests. So, with the new Apple Watch coming out, we hope there are sleep tracking features in Apple Watch 6. In contrast, if there isn’t any such feature, third-party apps are there to help.
