Was planning to give to her solely for health tracking options. She’s not too great with technology and eyesight ain’t the greatest to use text typing on watch to respond to people. Also doesn’t quite workout much so don’t really know if step tracking is much useful even. What the watch would do primarily would be sleep tracking and heart rate monitoring. A friend of mine suggested to get a yearly heart checkup (ECG, tmt, etc) instead of investing in the watch since it’s anyways not a medical grade thing and I am skeptical now about how to go about it. Anyone with suggestions? Btw planning a 41mm Series 8 in case if that’s important.
The thing is that I asked a friend of mine in med school and she was the one who suggested that an apple or any other watch should not be a substitute for medical heal checkup and a real ecg, eco and tmt are always better than relying on fitness trackers. So I was wondering whether to get it or not…
Yeah i wouldn’t rely on a watch alone, i still go in for annual tests. Doesn’t mean its useless though.
