A new update significantly enhances the functionality of the RingConn smart ring, providing deeper insights into personal health and the impact of lifestyle choices. This update aims to offer users a more comprehensive understanding of how their daily habits and overall lifestyle influence their health. The manufacturer RingConn has released software version 2.9.1, aimed at improving stability and fixing bugs. While the manufacturer doesn’t specify which bugs have been fixed, the update promises an overall enhanced user experience.
New Training Category: Walking
A notable addition to this update is the ability to track walks as a separate training category. This feature allows users to monitor their daily activities more accurately and understand their health impacts better.
Introduction of Health Alerts
The most significant new feature of the update is the Health Alerts. These alerts are designed to detect abnormal values that could indicate illness, poor general health, or unfavorable lifestyle changes.
Parameters for Health Alerts
Health Alerts utilize various parameters, including heart rate and skin temperature measured by the smart ring. These data points help identify potential health issues early.
Data Basis for Proper Functionality
For Health Alerts to function correctly, a comparative data basis is necessary. Therefore, this feature may not be fully functional for users who are using the RingConn smart ring for the first time.
Quantification and Tracking of Abnormalities
Health Alerts not only indicate the presence of abnormalities but also quantify the differences and track them over several days.
Examples of Health Alerts
For instance, the new software can indicate when heart rate and skin temperature are elevated, suggesting the possibility of fever or infection. The software provides corresponding advice, such as monitoring for symptoms and seeking medical attention if needed. Users should always consider their specific circumstances, as factors like a heatwave can also cause increases in skin temperature and heart rate.
