New patent for Apple Apple Watch smartwatch: an app / service can be disabled if an uncertified watch band is detected

CTOnews.com March 22, according to foreign technology media Patently Apple reported that Apple recently obtained a technology patent on Apple Watch. The patent description says that the NFC chip will be embedded in the Apple Watch strap to confirm that the strap has been officially certified by pairing the NFC chip inside the watch.

The main description of the patent attached to CTOnews.com is as follows:

When an unauthorized watchband is detected for an Apple Watch connection, Apple Watch will jump out of the reminder and can choose to disable a feature / feature of Apple Watch. (in the official example, you can choose to disable an application or service)

In addition to verifying that the strap is officially certified, Apple hopes to achieve certain functions through NFC pairing, such as when users change the Apple Watch strap, the dial can be automatically changed according to the color of the strap; for example, when a specific Apple Watch strap is detected, it can automatically switch to fitness or different applications.
