Hey now it lets me know when I got a text message while my phone is on silent, counts my steps, and monitors how long I sleep. It also cost me like 40 bucks.

Bonus points if your employer harvests all that biometric data to sell it to your health insurance company, and they use it to deny coverage because you didn't take enough steps during Q2
