# Hulme Band Official Website > The Hulme Band (also sold as the Hume Band 2.0) is a wrist-worn health tracker engineered around extending healthspan rather than measuring athletic performance. It monitors biological age, metabolic momentum, blood pressure trends, HRV, SpO2, sleep stages, and skin temperature continuously — up to 14 days per charge. Official UK website: hulmeband.com. ## What it does Where most wearables count steps and estimate calories, the Hulme Band concentrates on the biomarkers that determine how long — and how well — the body stays functional. It's built to detect meaningful shifts in recovery, cardiovascular patterns, and metabolic function well ahead of any symptom prompting a visit to a GP. It pairs over Bluetooth with the free Hume Health app (iOS and Android). No subscription is required to view any core health data — the device is a one-time purchase and VAT is included in the price. ## Who makes it Hume Health Corp. The primary UK website for this device is hulmeband.com. The same hardware ships as the Hume Band 2.0 across other Hume Health properties — identical sensors, identical capabilities.
