1. An apparatus comprising:
- a housing;
a plurality of biometric sensors, the plurality of biometric sensors including a magnetic sensor; and
processing circuitry, wherein;
the plurality of biometric sensors and the processing circuitry are located within the housing, andthe processing circuitry is configured to;
determine one or more activity-related metrics based on data from the plurality of biometric sensors, andswitch from a first operating mode to a second operating mode when data from the magnetic sensor corresponds with a first magnetic signature associated with a first mounting fixture, wherein the first mounting fixture includes a magnetic source that produces the first magnetic signature.

Abstract
A biometric monitoring device and multiple carrying cases for same are provided. In some implementations, the case may be made from a flexible viscoelastic material and the biometric monitoring device may be slipped into a receptacle in the case through an opening in the case; the opening may become distended during the insertion of the biometric monitoring device. In some implementations, the case may feature a display window that, in combination with materials of the biometric monitoring device, may mask a display of the biometric monitoring device from view when the display is off and may allow the display to be seen when the display is displaying content.
