Brush Up

Brush Down

Double Tap

Cover

You can customise gestures to access online services, apps, and information, without reaching for your phone. For example, with a simple brush of your strap, you can get your next direction, skip to the next track on your playlist, or hear upcoming appointments. Set up Alerts to get certain notifications with light or haptic feedback. For example, get notified when your rideshare arrives or when you get a message from an important loved one. As more services become available on the Jacquard platform, so will the ways you can use Jacquard Abilities. With Jacquard, things just get better over time.
