Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for a functional cover are described. A removable cover (e.g., a functional cover) for a wearable ring device (e.g., a ring wearable) may include one or more electrical components positioned at least partially within the removable cover. In some cases, the functional cover may wireless connect with the ring wearable. The removable cover may further include a first inductive component within the removable cover, where the first inductive component is configured to wirelessly communicate with a second inductive component of the wearable ring device when the removable cover is in a mounted state on the wearable ring device. The first inductive component of the removable cover may be configured to transfer electrical current, data, or both, between the one or more electrical components of the removable cover and one or more additional electrical components of the wearable ring device.
