First Claim
1. An activity monitoring device, comprising,a housing configured for attachment to a body part of a user;
- a display screen attached to the housing;
a sensor for capturing physiological conditions of the user, the sensor being disposed along a surface of the housing so that the sensor is proximate to the body part, the body part having at least some exposed skin;
memory for storing the captured physiological conditions; and
a processor for examining the captured physiological conditions, and at a particular time, automatically selecting an application to execute from a plurality of applications based on characteristics of the captured physiological conditions.

Abstract
An activity monitoring device and associated methods for using and interfacing with the activity monitoring device are provided. In one example, the activity monitoring device includes a housing configured for attachment to a body part of a user. Also included ins a display screen attached to the housing and a sensor for capturing physiological conditions of the user. The sensor is disposed along a surface of the housing so that the sensor is proximate to the body part, the body part having at least some exposed skin. The activity monitoring device also includes memory for storing the captured physiological conditions, and a processor for examining the captured physiological conditions. At a particular time, the processor automatically selects an application to execute from a plurality of applications based on characteristics of the captured physiological conditions.
