Apple continues its research in the field of health, and engineers in Cupertino company were working on a new feature allowing the Apple Watch to measure the stress of its user. The novelty would use current sensors and it would work on the same principle as cardiac measurement, the idea being to go so far as to detect warning signs of a panic attack and display a notification to warn the user and suggest an emergency breathing exercise. The Health application could also receive a section and dedicated advice to better manage stress. In this article, you will find out how to monitor or measure stress on your Apple Watch in detail below.
The Apple Watch has a heart rate sensor that is accurate enough to take into account moments of stress. With the “Heart Rate Variability” function, the smartwatch already monitors the stress exposure of its owner.
The data is not fully used by Apple, but third-party applications exist to take this information into account and give the required information to the users. Check the steps below to check the stress level by using your iPhone’s Health app.
There are third-party applications like Gentler Streak that exist to analyze stress level data. Training Today app also offers a heart rate variability study to find incidents of stress.
Finally, Stress Monitor for Apple Watch is, as its name suggests, an application dedicated to this task. Stress affects 9 out of 10 people today. It is described by the medical world as one of the evils of the century.
According to some data collected worldwide, stress is caused in 76% of cases by work, which is by far the first reason cited by European people. Detecting stress with a connected device can be a very good reflex, especially to “calm” moments of stress with relaxation or breathing exercises.
Apple should update its Apple Watch in the forthcoming September month. We still know very little about the future of Apple’s smartwatches, but the development of a stress-measuring feature is one of the brand’s priorities.
