As the team that helped Under Armour build the first ever wearable fitness tracker in 2016, we know what it takes to build great wearable apps. Deeply researched UX aside, your wearable app needs unbreakable code, endless integrability with your smartphone and web apps, and a highly focused user journey. From smartwatches and implantables to rings, on-cloth, and other variants, our deep and diverse expertise helps you bring the most revolutionary wearable ideas to life.
Wearable technology refers to a set of electronic devices that can be worn or implanted by users for highly specific digital functions. These devices run on custom processors, software, and UX and work as an extension to an existing ecosystem of computers and smartphones. The technology that binds them all together is wearable technology.
Wearable devices rely on processors and sensors to serve users. Most of them have highly specific functions, including monitoring vitals, tracking motion and distance, and even brain activity. Together with other devices in the ecosystem, wearables help users get a detailed understanding of the issue at hand.
Wearable apps work largely as extensions to your smartphone apps. They can be worn on devices anywhere on your body, including wrists, ankles, fingers, neck, ears, and even clothes. Wearable apps have highly specific functions and help people use highly specific features that perfectly match their use case.
Yes, but with differing approaches. WatchOS apps run specifically on Apple Watch and its limited models in production. Android Wear apps criss-cross over a large array of wearable manufacturers, devices, and interfaces. For the latter, we can even help you understand your users and their preferred Android wearable devices better through a CoLab.
