The band has built-in GPS to record your routes, gives an indication of UV levels to protect from sunburn, and can be personalized to rearrange tiles and choose your background style and color. It’s designed to work with Android, iOS, or Windows Phones. It can show your text messages and incoming calls as well as email and calendar.
