Apple Rumored To Be Working On iWatch

Being aware of the fact that Apple’s iPhone line is getting 7 years old, and the iPad almost 3 years old, the Apple public and fans are suggesting that the company is about to come up with a new awesome product. There is no surprise but there is not only one but two amazing stuff that seem to be going around and what we are talking about is the iTV and the iWatch.

Meanwhile we’ve got to share some rumors such as Apple is going to build its own TV set, any speculation about the iWatch has been a lot more discreet. Maybe that’s the way the post by Bruce Tognazzini, a man with a particular position at Apple company in the past, is getting such an audience this week.

Talking about Tognazzini, he wasn’t really just an average staff from Apple. He is known in Cupertino as the employee #66 at Apple, Steve Jobs is #0 and Steve Wozniak is #1, and he is also the founder of the human interface group at the company. Therefore, there is no need to say that he has credibility regarding what he is speculating.

From what he was publishing in his personal blog ‘AskTog’ a few days ago, there is a large number of reasons for why Apple should create an integrated smartwatch. And is very possible that it will. Here you can read one of his most interesting ideas about passcodes:

“The watch has the capacity and should, for most of us, take out entirely the passcodes on iPhone, and Macs and, if Apple is smart, on PC’s: As long as my watch is in range, let me in! There is no doubt that to me that this would be one of the most attractive characteristic a smartwatch can offer: If a watch would only let me without having to enter my passcode or password from 10 to 20 times a day, I would definitely buy it. ”

Moreover, he is proposing that the watch should be in connection with Find My Phone, and whenever the person that’s wearing it gets out of range of their iPhone or iPad, to be sounding an alarm. There are already a few devices on the market that do this and it’s apparently a very important feature out there.

The next topic is NFC.  Tognazzini asserts that it would be way more useful to make a way into the iPhone through a watch, probably referring to the nearby communication field tech that has been trying to do this since a while. The good news is that this could even allow the users to make NFC transactions without being necessary to pull out their iPhone.

“The NFC chip doesn’t belong in the iPhone but in the iWatch! Like this we’ll never miss to know where is it all the time, strapped at the end of an appendage, designed on purpose to be made available to things.  A very easy process! Reach.Touch.Done.

In the meantime, being able to handle all the necessary way of communication, the iPhone was decided to  be kept away in a safe place for a while, and if anyone does manage to have the watch in his hands,  it will have to be authorized again, because of the fact of being moved away from our arm. Zilch is the net value to the thief and the net loss for us is way much less than an iPhone,  making it clear  for everyone that there is no use in stealing an iWatch.

Obviously not all the buyers will be able to accept NFC immediately, so the watch, which is linked to the Passport, will display QR codes as well and many other things. ”

There are only a couple of possibilities of what an iWatch is capable of, and this doesn’t include what it could do with the apparition of third party apps.  Think about run trackers or gold swing enhancers, iWatch is aware of anything that could take advantage of GPS or other kind of sensor.

There is really worth reading the entire post so be invited to do so by clicking here. I will have to say that if Apple came out with such a smartwatch, I’d buy one immediately.

Would you buy an iWatch?
