Jawbone has also recently released a free over-the-air firmware update for the UP2 and UP3, enabling new features such as automatic sleep detection, with users no longer needing to tap the band to enter and exit sleep mode.
Passive heart rate tracking, taken periodically throughout the day, has also been enabled for the UP3, which previously only measured resting heart rate and heart rate throughout the night, designed to provide users a more complete picture of their heart health.
“We’re excited to expand the design platform for UP2 and UP3 with a sleek new strap for UP2 and 10 eye-catching colours, making our line-up of UP products even more versatile and jewellery-like,” Travis Bogard, Jawbone vice president of product management and strategy, commented.
