Phenomenal that the patent is only violated by doing it with the watch cpu but not by funneling the data to a separate cpu. The surest sign that it's a bullshit patent.


They're all like that. Patents are pretty specific.


If they're not very specific there's frequently prior art.


Someone else linked the patent in question and it seems to be about a wearable device. The iphone is carried on your person and not worn as part of the same device, as I understand it.

I still don't think it's a valid patent.
