Apple Releases watchOS 5.1.2 With ECG, New Infograph Complications and Walkie-Talkie Control Center Toggle

[Alonso Quijano]

Changing region to US on both my phone and watch didn’t make anything show up, where do you take the ECG? The Health app?

it's its own app

There is a new app on the watch ECG

 

[MacBird]

It's its own app, I think.

Yes, you have to set it up in the Health app on the phone and then run the dedicated app on the watch.

 

[Broken Hope]

Simply changing region doesn’t make that appear then.

 

[Starship67]

And we have Sinus Rhythm.

Not appearing with a region switch on the developer version of iOS 12.1.1 and the watchOS update. Going to switch to public release of iOS 12.1.1 as advised by Guilherme Rambo

I have public release of 12.1.1 and switched both iPhone and watch regions to US and it’s not working. Hopefully a workaround is discovered soon

 

[Khashoggi]

Loaded the update on the watch (after deleting dev profile because was on dev beta) and the app is there but is now requiring an update on the iPhone to 12.1.1 which is going to take time...

 

[Simacca]

Be nice if someone finds a way to use this outside of the US.

Watch still needs to be plugged in, even with a full charge. Looks like an evening update for me. Hope I don't get undetected a-fib before then!

 

[blizaine]

Did that show automatically for you? My watch updated and I have the ECG app on it. But when I launch it, it says to setup from health app. When I open health app it does do anything.

So did you delete developer profile on iPhone too?

 

[MarioG]

Hmmmm this time they made it complicated it seems. I have an US Apple ID and have switched region to US on both the iPhone and the Watch and the ECG app is not showing up. Might be checking the actual geo location, which would be a bit over the top.

 

[Bako-MacAddict]

Hurry up people and confirm no bricking.

Was scrolling down for this comment as a matter in fact.

 

[YatBob]

Downloaded, installed and first EKG Taken, no bricking

 

[dmccombs]

My watch has 92% charge, someone inform me why in the world it needs to be on a charger to update?! Come on Apple!

So they can sell you another expensive charge cable to keep at work, just for doing updates.

 

[Simacca]

Surely apple could of let owners outside of the US use this for ‘entertainment purposes’.

Yes, it does. It's just a bunch of initial warnings and limitations of the ECG feature and that you can't sue Apple's a*s for anything.

 

[SigurTom]

No problems updating and taking EKG. Sinus FTW. While it didn't specifically say it, the implication is that I'll live forever.

Dam!! Anyone try turning off location services before installing or an IP address in the US maybe? I’m really thinking to much about this......

If you have beta on phone , you have to remove iOS beta profile, restart phone and install 12.1.1

Doesn't show up for me either in the health app..

Same issue here.

 

[iAdamator]

Do we need to delete our beta profiles to get this? I am still not seeing the update.

Yes.

Downloaded and have run two ECGs thus far. No AF.
