Will Apple ever make a band instead of a watch? (alien.top)

I wear my Apple Watch every day and every night. I mainly use it to track my heart rate, O2, and my step count.

Sometimes it gets a bit uncomfortable. Also - it prevents me from wearing “classic” watches when I want to dress up.

I was considering switching out for a whoop but I prefer to keep the watch since I trust its measurements more.

Does anyone think Apple will ever come out with something like a Whoop band?

Hopefully they’ll go after that market. I read somewhere (not sure if true), that there’s more accurate heart readings from the finger anyway.

Adding something to the ring that wasn’t added to the watch would be one way to drive sales. Maybe air quality or add in a light sensor (my watch is generally covered with a sleeve when walking in winter) or something similar.
