Apple Watch Ultra -
The Apple Watch Ultra is the biggest and brightest one yet. It has a 49mm titanium case and a flat sapphire front crystal. The watch features an action button that provides quick access to several features and also has the longest battery life at 36 hours.
Aerospace-grade titanium balances weight, durability, and corrosion resistance. The shell rises to protect the 2x-brighter Retina display more than any previous Apple Watch display. The orange Action button lets users access exercises, compass waypoints, and more. Apple Watch Ultra is approved for MIL-STD-810H, a military and rugged equipment standard. Turning the digital crown makes the Wayfinder interface red for nighttime use.
The Ultra has a new multi-band GPS frequency, L5, and also has a trackback option in case you fall off the grid. In watchOS 9, a new Compass app includes Compass Waypoints to designated locations. Triathletes can use the Action button to swap between race legs (i.e., switching from swimming to running).
Apple Watch Ultra offers heart rate tracking, ECG and Blood Oxygen apps, activity rings, mindfulness, and various health, safety, and navigation functions. The Apple Watch Ultra benefits women’s health. Two sensors eliminate body bias and external bias. Family planning can benefit from retroactive ovulation estimates.
The firm says that all health and fitness data in the Health app, besides Medical ID, is encrypted when an iPhone is locked with a passcode, Touch ID, or Face ID. And all the iCloud Health data is protected in transit and on Apple servers. The Health App data is saved to iCloud with two-factor authentication and a passcode is encrypted end-to-end, ensuring Apple cannot access it.
