The big idea
Smartwatches use AI to spot when you sit, walk, sleep, or get scared. That info is super personal — and it is being saved on the company's computers.
Some examples
- Your watch knows when you fall asleep and wake up
- It can guess when you are stressed from your heart rate
- Some watches share data with apps you did not realize
- Asking a parent about settings is smart — together you can lock things down
Try it!
If anyone in your house has a smartwatch, look at the privacy settings together. What can you turn off?
