Hey,

I read there might be some new sensors, but I haven't read if the heart rate sensor might be one of the changes. Has anyone heard anything about them changing the heart rate sensor? I know my Fitbit works but my apple watch doesn't through either of my arm sleeves. Hoping that they can update the watch to work better in cases where the user has tattoos on their wrists, as my watch often doesn't work well when it can't read the heart rate.
 
No definitive word on this. We’ll have to wait for the announcement and even then I doubt Apple would necessarily mention this as a part of the announcement so perhaps not until units arrive for testing
