Smartwatches are poised to get better at interpreting health metrics, connecting the dots between biometric data points and turning those trends into actionable insights.

Samsung and Google made steps in this direction in 2024 by launching new AI -powered tools in their own respective health apps for providing deeper insights about your health data.

Smart rings like Oura and Zepp are ahead of the curve when it comes to health coaching and insights.

Smartwatches are continuing to evolve into more sophisticated wellness monitors.

Tech giants like Apple and Samsung are getting additional use of the sensors that already exist on their smartwatches.

In the nearer term, we'll likely see a larger focus on nutrition and food logging in the health apps.

Smartwatches have evolved a lot over the last decade .

They'll continue moving in that direction, but it'll take some time before entirely new types of health metrics arrive.

In the meantime, don't be surprised if you find yourself asking your watch for advice about how to sleep better or build a customized exercise routine.
