1. if your watch tells you that you might have apnea go get a sleep study! 2. apnea and snoring do tend to happen together but not necessarily. you can have apnea without snoring(sometimes the other way but not as common) 3. apnea is like high blood pressure it's slowly killing you. 4. there are a lot of options now to help you. one might be losing weight. one might be sleeping on a side or stomach.. you won't know until you do a sleep study! get it done.
After I got my apnea fixed I feel like a new person. I did not even know how tired I was or what being "awake" was like anymore. My body adjusted to a new normal. Please look into treatment!
It's a shame Apple is having patent issues with their SpO2 sensor. The O2Ring was a huge help in me understanding my sleep apnea early on, in combination with a formal sleep study. Sleep apnea is a very common and harmful problem, any sort of way of helping detect it will improve a lot of lives.
Can Apple do something about eliminating all these bureaucratic barriers that hurt the health of so many?
how exactly was Apple able to preannounce approval for this before the, yknow, approval?
like exactly no other agencies work this way, precommiting them to a decision they havent formally taken, even if informally it was already taken they would frown very strongly on leaking their stuff
All to say I am elated to have my watch helping me just monitor and understand the issue and help give me more actionable data if I need to pursue the doctors again.
I just wish we could solve this with something other than needs-AC-plug machine. I’d like to be able to travel without needing to think about that
Apologies in advance if this question is somehow obvious to others.
Can't wait to get this in more devices.
It watches you.
Surely it’s not a technical reason, more a business one.
With 36 hours being the absolute best-case scenario for battery life, it would seem your options are to either have two watches, or be perfectly fine only wearing your watch every other day? Otherwise, when do you charge?
