🌀 Tom's Take

Unfiltered POV from the editor-in-chief.

When we talk about wearables, the focus is usually on what they let us do, such as track steps, translate a conversation, or enter a virtual world. Those use cases drive adoption, but there is another side to wearing technology that is just as valuable. It is not about action, but about collection. Wearables listen, sense, and record while on our bodies, creating a layer of context that can enhance every application by adding more of us into the mix.

Earbuds now track heart rate, movement, and location alongside audio. Smartglasses can see what is in front of you while knowing where you are and who you are with. By capturing this information, wearables become engines of metadata that describe not only you but also the moment you are in.

This data has the power to reshape the apps we already use. Social platforms could personalize feeds based on mood. Music services could adjust playlists to match your heart rate. Maps could plan routes that respond to your pace and energy. It will also enable entirely new app categories built on context we have never had before.

Today, our devices treat us mostly as isolated users tapping on screens. Wearables are giving them new ways to understand us as people in context. This extra layer of awareness will unlock a wave of hyper-personalization unlike anything we have seen before.
