As long as you pay the bill, no

You mean cell phones?

6 EKGs and 2 48 hr holters did not catch my heart arrhythmia. My Apple Watch did. I agree it’s a must.

it's a useful device sure. it's the anti consumer and control freak nature of that company that i absolutely loathe.

Fuck astroturfing / advertising through bullshit clickbait

Every single article from 9to5mac.com I see coming by here is just basically jerking off the ghost of Steve Jobs.

What's the next article: An iPad will save your marriage and cure cancer?

Ads are getting smarter!

I wear my watch during showers. It's an amazfit tho, with no fall detection. But it can tell me what was my heart rate and how many calories i burned while trying to crawl to the bedroom for my phone to call an ambulance with a broken hip... Which is nice i guess.

I mean Garmin watches have the same function and I'm glad they don't shove it on people's faces on so called ads I mean "articles".

I do, the watch needs a wash too! I’m usually showering after a run or the gym so, I just leave it on.

Yeah ok, while nearly half the United States is listed as "Waitlist" or "Coming Soon"

How old was he? Did he have other risk factors?

I get an abnormal rhythm on occasion. Sometimes just a few seconds off and on for a few minutes or an hour and then not again for weeks or a few years.

After 18 years of not really knowing what was happening I caught an abnormal rhythm alert while taking my blood pressure last month.

I told my doctor and he set me up with a portable heart monitor I'm currently wearing for a few weeks. It happens so infrequently I was worried it wouldn't happen while I had the monitor but I logged several events yesterday. Hoping it's just stress/anxiety and not more serious.

Bro. Was just thinking of that commercial

“beep beep beep!”

“Holy shit what’s that thing on my wrist!?”

“Today is 9/11”

“Thanks …”

“That’s when the world trade center towers get knocked down my kamikaze passenger jets”

My doc isn’t interested in my health dats but encourages me to use it “in a healthy way”.

A good pamphlet would help…

Could yoy like, leave your phone around the shower and if fell over say hey Google or hey siri, call 911? Wearing the watch on shower seams overkill

Nope, under 20 lol. How's it gross if you wash the watch as well?

*gross

Are you 60 or older?

I had a baby in April, got my Apple Watch on my birthday in January. It determined that for two weeks after I had my baby, my average resting heart rate changed, and notified me. I was amazed because the rate of change began on my baby’s birthdate.

It’s also notified me that I’ve had a higher heart rate and asked if I was okay on two separate occasions. Once after getting my tetanus vaccine, when I was running a fever, and the other time was when I had Covid. It was my first symptom and I didn’t even know it until my watch notified me. Pretty cool technology, in my opinion!

I shower with my galaxy watch and have always showered with watches

Like radiology, things like ECG interpretations will really benefit from machine learning on massive datasets. In both areas, we're not far away from an AI interpretation exceeding the abilities of a technician. Proof of concept has already shown neural networks outperforming resident doctors on 12-lead ECG interpretation.

I wear mine in the shower to give it and the band a quick wash. Maybe one day, when I’m old as shit, it will save my life.
