Summary of Apple Watch (Draft 2)

  According to (Barney, 2023), the Apple Watch is a smartwatch produced by Apple Inc and first launched in 2015. In the beginning, the Apple Watch was designed to reduce the time users spend looking on their phones, however now it has redefined the way we interact with technology and manage our lives. (Loic, 2022) states that Apple Watch can detect if you have fallen by incorporating the accelerometer and gyroscope. Apple Watch will notify your location to your emergency contacts and local emergency agencies if you remain motionless after a minute. Lanier (2022) states that the Apple Watch can serve as a health and fitness tracker. It can check and track your blood oxygen levels for users who suffer from illnesses such as asthma. The watch can also track your heart rate throughout the day and even during your workouts. This is possible due to the sensors that are located at the back of the watch. The Apple Watch can track your running routes using its integrated GPS (Lanier 2022).

Thesis: The Apple watch is a useful tool because it has essential health functions that we can utilize in our daily lives. It can also be used as a fitness tracker to monitor our workout routine.
