Summary
- Apple Watch tracks vital signs like heart rate, breathing, and temperature
- Noise monitoring and hearing health features added to latest models
- Cycle tracking and sleep apnea detection capabilities introduced
As of November 2025, the Apple Watch has evolved into a powerful health and wellness tool, packed with features designed to help users monitor and improve their overall well-being. According to a doctor at Apple, the latest Apple Watch models, including the Series 8 and Ultra, can track a range of vital signs, from heart rate and wrist temperature to respiratory rate and sleep duration.
The Vitals app on the Apple Watch can provide users with a comprehensive overview of their health, alerting them when two or more metrics are outside their normal range. This information can empower users to make informed decisions about their bodies, such as getting extra rest or visiting a doctor if they experience concerning symptoms.
Beyond vital signs, the Apple Watch also offers features to support hearing health and mental well-being. The Noise app can measure sound levels in the user's environment and provide notifications when they are exposed to dangerously loud sounds. Additionally, the Mindfulness app allows users to log their emotions and daily moods, helping them identify patterns and build resilience.
The Apple Watch's advanced capabilities extend to sleep apnea detection, cycle tracking, and fall detection, providing users with valuable insights and safety features to enhance their overall health and wellness.
