The best classroom upgrade might be less tech #TEDTalks
Humans aren’t just social — we’re ultrasocial, wired like bees and ants for deep connection. So what happens when smartphones take over childhood, tablets replace textbooks and AI companies infiltrate our kids’ lives? Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out three principles of technoskepticism — and explains why, two years after sounding the alarm in “The…

I have the Xiaomi smart band 9 it works really well and gives accurate readings at what it does and i use it with my iPhone… really reliable fitness tracker!

The T-Rex 3 is a good choice. I had the T-Rex Pro for a while. The only reason I switched to a TicWatch Pro 3 is that Amazfit doesn’t have a Wheelchair activity, and Google Fit does.
The Xiaomi Smart Band 9 is okay, but it suffers from the same lack of Google Fit as the T-Rex line, plus the Mi Fitness app doesn’t support imperial units. They need to switch back to the Zepp app if they can’t figure out how to put imperial units in the Mi Fitness app.
I really like the TicWatch line, because not only does it have Google Fit, but the watches also have a dual screen that really saves battery life. You get a full-fledged smartwatch (rather than just a fitness band) and battery life that can last you a week with the smartwatch features on, and considerably more than that in Essential mode.

I have a question. I’m using an apple watch but I want to buy a round android watch. my question is, does the data of android watch will sync to apple health? so the activity ring can still be close when I wear android watch.

Should’ve also had the Huawei watch GT 5 in this since it’s also compatible with both android and ios. The only thing you’d be losing out is Huawei’s voice assistant and text to speech
