New Withings ScanWatch 2 experience could track energy & body timing
Withings is teasing something new for ScanWatch 2. The update is being described as more personal and in tune with your body’s rhythms. It seems to be a big deal considering the company has sent out an email, and set up a holding page on its website where you can register to find out more.
The clues point to something beyond metrics
The language focuses heavily on personalisation, adapting to your rhythms and helping to optimise your health. The phrase “health tracking is about to evolve” suggests this is not just a visual refresh, but a shift in how the watch interprets and presents health data.
At the centre of the email is a layered green shape that looks organic and deliberate. It may represent a biological cycle. The design could be a metaphor for circadian rhythms, energy flow, or something else that shifts across time. That interpretation would align with the wording about being in tune with your body.
Ultrahuman, for example, has a very useful circadian clock feature in its smartphone app. This compliments the stats from its smart ring very well. Perhaps Withings is planning to do something similar for the Scanwatch.
This could be a new way of visualising energy and recovery
The mention of “your body’s unique rhythms” and “raising the bar, again” suggests the company may be introducing a new approach to health feedback. There is a chance this involves layering data such as temperature, HRV, and sleep patterns into something more contextual.
If so, it would bring the ScanWatch 2 closer to what other platforms already offer. WHOOP has its strain and recovery tracking. Zepp Health provides a real-time energy system called BioCharge. Fitbit offers a Daily Readiness Score. Withings could be working on a medically focused version of that idea.
The website says to get ready for “our most energizing update of the year.” The result might be a daily energy graph or a new dashboard layout showing fluctuations in physical capacity, stress or rest needs throughout the day.

None of this is confirmed. But the combination of phrasing, visual cues, and timing suggests some sort of readiness or energy model could be part of what’s coming.
Not a new watch, but a new layer
There is nothing in the teaser to suggest this is a ScanWatch 3. The references are all to ScanWatch 2. That makes this feel like a firmware rollout paired with deeper software integration inside the Withings app.
For now, it remains a teaser. But if the visual and wording choices are any clue, Withings could be preparing to step into the rhythm and energy space in its own clinically grounded way. The company will be attending IFA in Berlin at the end of this week. That might be the perfect time to reveal the upgrades.
