Apple Watch Ultra 3 reportedly will let hikers and other travelers send texts via a satellite connection when cellular communication isn’t available.
Apple is still working to add blood-pressure monitoring to the wearable.
The satellite capability is expected to come to next year’s Apple Watch Ultra, allowing off-the-grid text messages without a cellular or Wi-Fi connection.
The potential improvement in the 2025 Apple Watch Ultra could be blood-pressure monitoring, providing users with information on high blood pressure.
