And a smart ring seems like a good way to do just that.
Smart rings have exploded onto the scene over the last few months.
Yeah, that didn’t work out quite like I’d thought it might.

The Benefits of a Smart Ring
Here’s the thing.
Smart rings are amazing little bits of tech.
And a smartwatch is a lot bigger than even one of the bulkier rings.

And my iPhone didn’t need to be anywhere near it for it to track these things.
The smart ring did exactly what it’s mean to do… Track things.
It’s what it doesn’t do that really tripped me up.
The first time I left the smartphone behind, everything started out okay.
It wasn’t until I stopped at the park for my daily walk that I realized my mistake.
The smart ring doesn’t have media controls.
I also ended up missing the timer on my watch, the actual clock, and Siri.
In the end, I learned a couple of valuable lessons.
First, I rely on my Apple Watch way more than I ever thought I would.
If I’m being honest, when I purchased the Watch, it was really just a cool gadget.
Does it have its place?
