In a few hours many of you will be able to enjoy your new Apple Watch Series 4, a new device that from my point of view is the only one that is worth making the change during this 2018. News brings many so if you are thinking of changing Apple Watch this is the time.
Well, the insurance company John Hancock wants to take advantage of all the novelties of the Apple Watch to make us a reduction in their insurance and even offer us the smartwatch of the boys of the block for free. Do you remember the novel 1984 by George Orwell and his Big Brother? it seems the future is record everything we do in our day to day ... After the jump we give you all the details of this initiative that we will surely see more and more in other insurance companies ...
As we mentioned, the idea is that Anyone who wants to get insurance from the John Hancock company will have to have an Apple Watch or any other smartwatch that monitors your day to day. A smartwatch that could even be obtained for free depending on the exercise and the type of life that we lead, otherwise we will have to go through the cashier paying an extra 15 dollars (per month) in our insurance policy. It must be said that the log of the activity we do has to be activated on our Apple Watch but (as they say) John Hancock's boys would not have access to this data ...
Let's see what happens with all this, personally I think that every time we will see many more medical or life insurance that require the use of a smartwatch such as the Apple Watch to monitor all our vital signs and thus know how "healthy" we are. Something good, and something bad, since there are many more factors that could affect the risks that we have in our day to day and that can hardly be collected in their entirety through a device like the Apple Watch. We will see the reception that other insurance companies have in this regard ...
