The ease of seeing the call on your wrist while on the move or playing your favorite candy crush game on your forearm will soon going to be popular. And with the much anticipated iWatch launch by Apple is making consumers excited about the product but at the same time will make other smartwatch sellers like Samsung, Sony Xperia, and spice nervous.
The advertising companies too are devising ways to deliver marketing messages directly to people who don watches. Wearable also promise troves of unique data in areas related to health, activities and location giving marketers new ways to put adds.
From fitbit to android to apple soon to be launched iWatch , the wearable market is expanding faster. The market is set to triple by the end of 2014. With the convenience that these devices offer, it is clear that big tech companies are betting big on the technology.
Merely an extension of your smartphone, the android wear acts as a subordinate device to your smartphone. With its syncing settings one can interact at a glance with your smartphone. Users can also use these smartwatches to schedule meetings, track fitness, predict journey length, store travel records and control what music your phone is playing.
Developers don’t yet have the means to develop apps specifically for smartwatches. Instead, smartwatch compatible apps that are downloaded on a synced smartphone are the only means of installing apps on your watch.
