15 Sport Watch Tricks You Didn’t Know You Needed (But Now Can’t Live Without)

By Jessica M.

Last Updated Mar 3.2024

Summary: Sport watches have come a long way from just telling time and nagging you about your step count. These days, they’re basically tiny personal trainers, health gurus, and life coaches strapped to your wrist. They track everything from how well you slept (or didn’t) to how stressed you are when you're stuck in traffic. Some can even remind you to drink water or yell at you (nicely) to get moving. 

 

If you think your watch is just a fancy stopwatch, think again — here are 15 awesome features you probably didn’t even know your sport watch could pull off.

1. It tells time

Thank you, Captain Obvious. But some watches like the ChronoXP Pro go one step better with a wider 1.45" viewing area, enhanced brightness so you can see even in sunlight, and up to 100 different watchfaces to choose from.

 

Watches also include timing features such as countdown timers, stopwatches and alarms.

 

2. Blood Oxygen Monitoring (SpO₂)

Your smartwatch can check your blood oxygen levels like a tiny nurse on your wrist. Whether you’re working out, hiking at high altitudes, or just curious, it helps you keep tabs on how well your body is doing at getting oxygen to your muscles.

3. Sleep Quality Analysis

Gone are the days of guessing how well you slept. Your watch breaks down your night into light, deep, and REM stages, so you’ll know if you’re truly rested—or if you need to blame that third cup of coffee for your tossing and turning.

4. Smart Notifications and Call Handling

Who needs to dig through pockets or purses for their phone? Your watch buzzes you with texts, calls, and app alerts so you’re always in the loop — and yes, you can even answer calls like James Bond!

5. Menstrual Cycle Tracking

6. Customizable Workout Modes

Whether you’re into yoga, running, HIIT, or basketball, the smartwatch has a workout mode for you. Customize it to track exactly what you’re doing, making every calorie burned count.

7. Stress Level Tracking

Feeling a little (or a lot) stressed? Your smartwatch notices. It uses heart rate data to figure out when you're tense and can even guide you through calming exercises before you send that “reply all” email you’ll regret.

8. Hydration or Sedentary Reminders

Your smartwatch is that friend who gently nags you to drink water and move your butt. It’ll remind you to stay hydrated and take standing breaks — because binge-watching one more episode shouldn’t come at the cost of your health.

9. Music Control and Storage

DJ wrist at your service! Control your playlist, skip songs, or blast your running jams without fumbling for your phone. Some models even let you store music right on the watch, no phone needed.

10. Flashlight

Need to find your keys at night? Watches like the ChronoXP Pro have a built-in flashlight feature. It’s not blindingly bright, but it’s perfect for those “I dropped my AirPod under the couch” emergencies. Toggle between Constant On and Strobe.

11. Find my Phone Feature

Phone gone rogue? Tap a button on your watch and your phone will ring loudly—even if it’s buried in the couch cushions, your gym bag, or your "clean laundry" pile.

12. Heart Rate Monitoring

Your smartwatch is basically a 24/7 heart buddy. It keeps an eye on your heart rate whether you're working out, chilling, or binge-watching your favorite show, giving you instant health insights whenever you need them.

13. Compass

If you’re the type who gets lost in a shopping mall, good news: your smartwatch has a built-in compass. Whether you're hiking or navigating the local farmers market, you’ll always know which way is north (and avoid walking in circles).

14. Breathing Exercises

Feeling anxious? Your watch can guide you through quick breathing exercises to help calm your nerves. It’s like having a tiny meditation coach telling you, “Inhale… exhale… you’ve got this.”

15. Pedometer

Step aside, pedometers of the ‘90s. Your smartwatch tracks every step you take with serious accuracy — helping you hit your daily goals and making you feel like a rockstar when you hit 10,000 steps before noon.

BONUS: Voice Assistant

Yes, you can talk to your watch and it can follow your commands. 

Try doing that with a Rolex!
