In March I was feeling not so great, but nothing was wrong. Next day I wake to my Apple watch telling me I had arterial fibrillation over night and my pulse was still elevated. Called 911, Seattle FD medics confirmed this and off to the ER. After some time in ICU, and a shock, I was stabilized. Thank you Apple engineers and future thinking medical researchers. You saved my life.
The Apple Watch has been a lifesaver for many people, particularly those with heart conditions. Being able to share with the Dr what the heart is doing is a true blessing. It’s also a great fitness tracker. Being able to see activity levels as well as other things is beneficial to overall well being. Along with having a watch that acts like a mini smart phone.
Love my Garmin Instinct. Garmin is the best for training and really diving into your workout stats. Been using a Garmin bike computer since 2012, now have a Garmin 530 and the Instinct syncs my BPM with it. Invaluable tool.
The only Apple Watch I have for the moment, is myself “watching” that I eat Granny Smith “apples”, each and every morning. Very soon, I’d like to purchase one of these!
Snyder at 5:30 has lost touch with reality! $50?!? What smart watch that does everything they say is $50? My Apple Watch was $400, I run and use it for music so I can rationalize it. Most Americans won’t use half of what it can do and definitely cannot afford $400+, Michael get a clue sir!
Honestly, I believe it could happen even in the next 10 years. I loved the Apple watch and had the first generation and didn't upgrade until the third generation. That gen 3 was with me up until about a year ago when I needed something less twitterverse and more basic body feedback like sleep tracking and pulse rates. I bought a $30 AmazeFit on Amazon and honestly love it. They've upgraded even since that model but I'm happy with just the basics. I also don't have to charge it every night. I still keep my Apple watch gen 3 around for training. It just has too much for me at this time in my life. Just as tablets are dirt cheap now 10 years after the iPad, I'm surprised but also please that the Apple watch and Garmin and Fitbit introduced the technology and now company's such as AmazeFit can produce such an effective yet inexpensive watch.
If a device could monitor my glucose along with my heart rate, O2 level, etc., I’d be the first in line to buy one! Even if I had to wear a CGM elsewhere on my body that it could “talk” to continuously, I’d still be first in line.
Cause they make products that people like, want, are practical in daily use, and work well together. It’s no accident why they’re the most valuable company in the world.
My sleep number bed app said my heartrate was elevated four days prior to any Covid symptoms. I then tested positive when I lost my senses of smell and taste.
I guess I'm just old school but I like saving my blood work information from year to year, even requesting it. Paper trails have become shorter and shorter. I want these hard copies securely in my hand not flashing in my face.
Many doctors have created YT videos explaining that Apple Watch’ ECG and AFIB monitoring is useless, while other metrics are more relevant. Doctors also fear that people may rely on their watch to avoid going to the doctor for monitoring because the watch provides false reassurances.
I've been saying ( my vision ) that wearables can change the world. But they are not the miracle - the human being is the miracle. And there is a huge gap in education, skills and maximizing the wearables potential.
Okey nice....but gear s still the decently winner UV light sensor to be able to read how dangerous the sun is. And yes it happend to me when I was on vacation and took at that time my zenwatch with me instead of my gear S and I turned into a different human being in skin tone 3 days later. And when I came back I wore for weeks at 25 degrees shirts with long arms to keep myself warm in my country It are nice applications , even if the quality can be different. But it dont have to be aquarate in perfectness to be able to tell a lot of informstion People hate charging tho....like hate it.ive worn it for like 8 years I think.....but my current is a versace versus
Apple Watch: fall detection, emergency call, crash detection, a-fib detection, heart rate, heart rate variability, blood oxygen level, sleep detection, and more. Awesome device. I’m 71 and live alone. I wear my Apple watch all of the time, and it gives me peace of mind.
I wonder why they didn't include the Garmin watch line which is superior to both Apple and Fitbit, however it doesn't have the AFIB feature so perhaps that's the difference maker for this interview.
I wear both a Garmin Fenix 7X and an Apple Watch Ultra. The Ultra has more safety features than the 7X. Plus, it can make/receive calls. Emergency SOS, crash detection, fall detection, afib detection. The 7X is more of a sports watch, whereas the Apple Watch is more of a smartwatch.
Apple paid nothing to be in my story; in fact, I approached THEM. And I talked about Fitbit at least four times in the story. (I also approached Fitbit about being in the story, by the way... they initially agreed, and then, a day before the shoot, said that their spokesperson had gotten COVID, and they canceled.)
Wow this is sal rich people live that's great I is this must be California because you don't see any other homeless people wearing any of these or maybe the government can buy them and give it out to the homeless people in California they do need to wear these things and considering they can't afford it maybe a couple can supplement it I would agree to pay for this to every homeless person people on food stamps and all those people on social security they're the ones that can't afford to eat healthy
Yeah, health trackers…yeah, I’d really trust Apple. They run sweatshops in China, with Tim Cook justifying that by saying, “We go to China because we can’t find the skills we need anywhere else.” Like someone working in a Chinese sweatshop has some special snap-the-motherboard-into-this-slot skill that can’t be found anywhere else. So I wouldn’t trust that company not to pick up and sell whatever data they can. Once again, David Pouge fails to say, “I’m not a reporter, but I play one on TV.” Where where the interviews with the people (doctors maybe) who might say, “These are all overblown promises so far.” 15 seconds of one person saying they shouldn’t be used in factories, after she was the third person in the segment to say smartwatches are great. This was just an advertisement.

What an amazing story... thank you!! And a glimpse of the future.
It was probably the Apple watch that caused it.
Which edition did you have ?

It's just a matter of time before this data will be sold and linked to credit scores, insurance premiums, and corporate-owned life insurance plans.
Exactly like how Sunday Morning is providing this nice add for apple
They already do 😂😂

So what the best cheap alternative for apple watch

@@IntriguedLioness perhaps, but he seemed to be speaking in the present tense, not future.
I think he is talking about even a basic one that even only does heart rate can be greatly utilized when doing 24/7 health tracking

She lied at 5:24 when she said "absolutely not". Look at her eyes. She was trying to avoid eye to eye contact and was being evasive.
They should combine all these apps in a device modeled to look like an old-school Star Trek tricorder.
I'm not sure there is a very large market for an offering such as that 😂
I don't understand the bias with Apple. Samsung has a smart watch. All you hear nowadays is Apple.
Cause they make products that people like, want, are practical in daily use, and work well together. It’s no accident why they’re the most valuable company in the world.
Maybe they get more add money from Apple
Tip of the iceberg on mass data collection
My sleep number bed app said my heartrate was elevated four days prior to any Covid symptoms. I then tested positive when I lost my senses of smell and taste.
which model is this ? 3?
What which parties views such sendentives information .
They have your health info now but that’s only if you share it.
Why am I getting a HR reading on floor and bed as well.. why did Apple do this? Plz reply...
I guess I'm just old school but I like saving my blood work information from year to year, even requesting it. Paper trails have become shorter and shorter. I want these hard copies securely in my hand not flashing in my face.
So many folks really need a glucose monitoring system. Put your coffers into this feature. You will sell millions more.
Where’s the galaxy watch

If you smoke weed the heart beat don't work.....no explanation needed....
My doctor said the monitoring is not the best, but still better than nothing. He himself uses an Apple Watch
I strive to walk at least 30 minutes a day. I would definitely make good use of an Apple watch.
I like to wear a classic watch - I simply fon’t like what smartwatchew look like. Can I wear something other than a smartwatch for healthmonitoring?
a ring

Apple claims that they do not have access to their proprietary watches... What a brilliant lie, no one will really know...
great concept. bad company. F Apple.

I wish they would have talked about FitBit too. Apple obviously paid for this ad.
