The Fitbit Versa 3 and Fitbit Sense are the two newest Fitbit smartwatches, and while they look similar on the outside, there are some important distinctions.Fitbit's health watch, the Sense, has ECG, stress detection, and a skin temperature sensor.The Versa 3 lacks those functions, but it does have SpO2, GPS, and all of the Fitbit tracking you'd expect. It's essentially the Sense, but with less bells and whistles.Wear OS is already accessible on the Galaxy Watch 4, so it's technically out there.However, the rollout to current smartwatches (mentioned below) is set for "2022," with no other details available. What's the hold-up? We'll take your estimate as good as ours.Which Wear OS smartwatches will get Wear OS 3?Google has confirmed that certain previous Wear devices will be eligible for an update to Wear 3.0, although only a small number of the most recent devices with the most up-to-date CPU technology will be eligible. Google has issued a major upgrade for Wear 2.0 watches for anyone who missed out.This features modifications to Tiles and enhancements to the Play Store.Google would also give security upgrades for the older platform for two years.Wear OS 3.0 changes and what's new?Google presented insights during its I/O developer conference, and in addition to the main keynote, provided more information in developer sessions to give us a better idea of what to anticipate.There's also better battery life, albeit no definite specifics on how long it will last it appears to be two days at most.App switching is another of Wear's new features, which allows you to switch between apps with a double touch of one of the physical watch buttons.More third-party TilesAnother announcement Google made for the platform was the decision to open up the API for its Tiles widgets, allowing for more custom tiles to function on all new Wear watches. Calm, Hole 19, Adidas Running, and others shown above have previously verified that Google has been working on third-party tiles. Samsung is behind the invention of watch faces. One of the elements carried over from Samsung's smartwatch platform that will help consumers is the ability for designers to develop watch faces for Wear smartwatches, according to Google.Fitbit's Bitmoji watch faces, which are also scheduled to be integrated into the new Wear experience, will have an impact here.Services in the medical fieldAlong with Fitbit's position in Wear, which we'll discuss below, Google also unveiled a new Health services platform to allow developers create easy health and fitness apps for Wear.This feature of the new Wear was developed in collaboration with Samsung.As a result, you'll be able to get a summary of your day, complete with heart rate statistics and Active Zone Minutes.Fitbit will produce "health watches based on Wear leveraging Google's ambient computing capabilities," according to Park, implying that Wear OS Fitbits will be available in the next year.There was also news of redesigned Wear OS apps, which was reportedly the driving force for Samsung's decision to rejoin Google's Wear OS initiative.Apps for Wear OS 3.0Strava, Adidas Running, MyFitnessPal, and Facer are just a few of the "rebuilt applications" that will be available.There will also be a new Spotify app, which will contain the offline playlist synchronization feature that was recently added to the Apple Watch Spotify app.Google is also working to improve its key programs, such as Google Maps, which will be available on watches later in 2021 and will allow you to travel without using your phone.You will soon be able to download and install apps directly from the Google Play Store phone app, according to Google.
