5 reasons why you need a smartwatch
1. You can track your activities and improve your lifestyle
All smartwatches measure your daily activities, for example the number of steps you take or the number of minutes you work out. Still not satisfied with your desired step goal? A smartwatch will motivate you to walk for a while. In addition, many smartwatches can measure your heart rate, calories burned, and sleep quality. By measuring your activities on a daily basis and pursuing goals, you can improve your lifestyle.
2. You're informed of messages and calls quickly
How many times a day do you grab your smartphone because you received a message? If you connect your smartwatch to your smartphone, you can see whether a message is important at a glance. Some smartwatches even allow you to decline the call and send a message.
3. You can navigate from A to B
You can navigate with some smartwatches. This is useful if you want to check the route on your bike. You can see whether you need to turn left or right at a glance. The smartwatch shows you the way via (spoken) directions or vibrating signals, so you'll reach your destination as quickly as possible.
4. You can easily turn on your favorite music
Leave your smartphone in your bag and control the music with your smartwatch. Skip that one song that you don't like or adjust the volume. Some smartwatches have a built-in music player. In this case, you can store the music on your watch. Leave your smartphone at home when you go for a run and still listen to music.
5. You can pay contactless without a bank card
More and more smartwatches allow you to make contactless payments. You can connect your smartwatch to the app of your bank. If you want to pay, you just hold your watch against the PIN device. This couldn't be any easier. Not all banks support all payment methods. That's why you should check if your bank supports the payment method of your smartwatch.
