Apple is reaching out to Apple Watch users for feedback on key features like battery life, sleep tracking, and the potential use of smart rings. This survey comes ahead of the anticipated release of the Apple Watch Series 10.
Battery Life: A Key Focus
Battery life is a top concern for Apple Watch users, especially when compared to competitors like Garmin. In its survey, Apple asks users how satisfied they are with the battery life and how often they charge their devices. Apple also wants to know if users prefer fast charging and when they typically charge their watches—during the day or at night.
This focus on battery life hints at possible improvements in the upcoming Apple Watch Series 10, although users shouldn’t expect multi-day battery life like some competitors offer.
Sleep Tracking and Its Importance
Apple is also gathering feedback on its sleep tracking features. The survey asks how often users wear their watches to bed and which features of the Sleep app they find most valuable. This aligns with Apple’s interest in improving the health capabilities of its devices, including potential sleep apnea detection with the Apple Watch.
Interest in Smart Rings
A surprising part of the survey involves smart rings. Apple is curious if users are already using wearables like smart rings. While there’s no official confirmation of an Apple Ring, this interest suggests Apple is exploring the market for new wearables. The survey could be an early step toward developing such a product.
