(Jawbone stresses that your Up must be dry before you do this.) Instead, you pull that cap off, expose the plug, and insert it into your iPhone’s headphone jack.

My large Up feels like a light watch on my wrist. The small band weighs 19 grams, the medium band weighs 22 grams, and the large weighs 23 grams. The band’s exterior is a flexible, medical-grade, hypoallergenic TPU rubber. The $130 Up ships in three sizes (small, medium, and large) and eight colors (orange, mint green, hunter green, light blue, onyx, red, navy blue, and light gray).
