Blood oxygen sensor, Touch ID rumored for 'watchOS 7,' Apple Watch 'Series 6'
I would guess it would be related to sleep tracking, since sleep apnea deprives a person of oxygen.danvdr said:Seems to me that blood oxygen will largely be a cool party trick. A) Unless you are quite sick, your O2 is normal.
If you are quite sick and aren't getting enough O2 your body detects it and you feel short of breath and start breathing faster/harder. The O2 sensor gives you a number; whether you head to the doctor or not will depend on how you feel...

Google apps continue to track users even if location services are disabled
Well, obviously, it's not Google's fault.It's the fault of end users not knowing how to navigate several baffling layers of Settings (with informative double-negative names) to turn things off, because everyone wants those things on by default. Kind of like a do-not-call list, the default is to invite telemarketers to call you.

Remember initially how it was "two weeks to flatten the curve" and that was that?Would these people be raising the same stink if it had actually been only two weeks?Anyone familiar with Apple's secrecy should already know they want to keep things in tightly-secured physical offices, and not discussed on Zoom.

Future Apple Watch may move its battery to give haptic feedback
I'm still wondering if there are plans to introduce haptic on a watch band. Getting vibrations in the same place can be confusing, but moving them around will help differentiate.

Volkswagen CEO isn't sure that Apple wants to build cars
Apple could be positioning itself to be like Magna, building systems for cars. Carplay is the first such thing. From there, the dashboard, entertainment, collision avoidance, cameras and security. Maybe even seat and climate controls. Engines (electric or otherwise) and transmissions? Not so much.

Apple reveals which Macs will run macOS Catalina
So the video card I bought to run Mojave on my old 2010 Mac Pro won't let me do Catalina.Not that I'm surprised that a nine-year old computer is finally phased out. -
U.S. Representative Nancy Pelosi checks her Apple Watch on camera during State of the Union
Did anyone notice if a lot of people stood up at 50 minutes past the hour because their watch told them too?
