Apple Watch Series 12 may include always‑on heart‑rate monitoring, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The company is also testing a revised fitness app that will display additional wellness metrics. Gurman said the heart‑rate sensor could record data continuously throughout the day, not only during workouts or random intervals. The new app will show sleep, recovery and other health factors, aiming to match features found in Whoop and Oura apps. Apple is evaluating two finishes for a rumored ceramic Apple Watch model: white and dark gray, and it plans to offer many new band colors and configurations. Analysts note the current watch design, introduced in 2024, reduced the device’s thickness by limiting bezel size. Rumors suggest a major redesign could arrive with the Series 13 or Series 14, though no definitive timeline has been set. Apple has not confirmed any of these features or a release schedule.
