For you.
The health stuff is compelling and the marketing videos about lives saved are nice and all, but actual doctors are recommending Apple Watches for health monitoring.
- varispeed 1y agoIt is sold as a watch, not health watcher though. If you want to measure health, maybe dedicated device for health measurement would be better. Some doctors love kickbacks, if you know what I mean.
- lostlogin 1y agoThey aren’t paid by Apple, and if cost is no object, they recommend an Apple Watch. Unfortunately I now know this. The standalone devices are interesting, but aren’t as good. Continual monitoring is a powerful tool.
