The famous fitness trackers in the world are not only for exercise but also for one's health with the recent leaks behind the Apple Watch centering on an upcoming glucose monitoring feature for the wearable. This blood sugar monitor will help in keeping you on track with your glucose levels, featuring a non-invasive way of doing so. 

This information behind the Apple Watch has been around for a long time, and it will be one of the most advanced as it will no longer need to have actual blood samples from prickly needles to know.

Bloomberg's latest report confirms that its sources are telling them that a new Apple Watch feature is coming, in the form of glucose monitoring capabilities of the wearable. The report claimed that it is already at a "proof-of-concept stage," highly suggesting that the feature is ready for its integration, but there would be several tweaks before its arrival.

Apple's previous developments were massive in size, with reports saying that it is "tabletop size," but the company had recent advancements where it managed to make it smaller. 

It is still in the "iPhone-sized" wearable for now, which means that there would be more tweaks to make it smaller to fit in the wearable which already packs different features and sensors in it.

According to Engadget, this project was long in the works, and it was in development back when Steve Jobs was the leader of the company after it acquired RareLight. 

It will use the lasers underneath the Apple Watch to monitor the blood of its glucose levels, giving its readings to the user via the Health app.

Moreover, insiders claim that it is advanced to the point where it can also detect prediabetes stages.

Apple Watch's Supposed Upcoming Features

There were significant leaks and speculations about what the Apple Watch would feature for the world, including a blood sugar monitor and an alcohol level tracker for the user. These features sound like significantly advanced developments for the smartwatch, but these are not yet available for the Apple wearable present. 

The latest Apple Watch Series 8 sure brought many new features to the world, but earlier leaks claim that it will feature the famed glucose monitoring feature that never came. Additionally, there is a health feature available here, focusing on the body temperature sensor that would tell a person if they have a fever, advising them to go for a checkup.

Speculators and leakers focus on many things which the Apple Watch might bring to the world, and they scrub the internet or the company's files to bring its information to the public. Now, there are claims that the next upcoming feature for the wearable would be the blood sugar monitor, and help people avoid conventional ones that need pricking.
