According to a patent filed by Apple, it seems that the company is preparing to make smart straps for the Apple Watch.
ΣThe text of the patent states that the straps will have high technology and will show various elements, such as the progress of fitness goals.
The patent states that the straps will work in conjunction with the Apple Watch, from which they will receive information, which they will display in various places. This patent coincides in several ways with one that the company had filed in 2015. So, it is very likely the company is working to make these straps a reality.
In the documents submitted by Apple, it also included images in which we can see the indicators, which are very discreet. Essentially, the indicators that the straps have will show the targets that the user has set, and that he now monitors them only through the menu of the Apple Watch. If so, it will allow users to monitor their progress without having to wake up the Apple Watch, resulting in less battery life.
We have heard rumors in the past that Apple wanted to put some kind of technology in the straps of the Apple Watch, but nothing was official. Obviously if this becomes a reality then third-party strap makers will have a problem in terms of their revenue.
However, this is just a patent, and not a final product that has been put into production. In anticipation of new ones for Apple's smart straps, the company may release the next Apple Watch in September along with the new generation iPhone.
