FDA approves Apple Watch sleep apnea detection feature for Series 9, 10, and Ultra 2.

The FDA has approved a sleep apnea detection feature for the Apple Watch Series 9, Series 10, and Ultra 2, set to launch with watchOS 11. This feature uses the watch's accelerometer to track breathing disturbances during sleep and alerts users of potential sleep apnea, encouraging them to seek further medical evaluation. While it aids in identifying risk, it is not a diagnostic tool. The feature will be available in over 150 countries.
