Hi There, is there any inkling as to if or when the ECG module will be released or activated in Australia?
Even Saudi Arabia and NZ have been activated recently. C'mon Apple please.

My Australia watch just got the app for ECG. I’ve been in the U.K. for over a year with it and just updated to the latest OS. No idea if that’s the reason or not.

"Even" NZ, eh?

I suspect it is likely not apple, but some medical board in Australia that is the hold up.

I believe that we probably have laws that require an ECG device to be certified.

Thank you, I'd imagine you'd be right on that...shame though, it seems handy

In Brazil, the government approved the ECG app today, but still no date for release https://macmagazine.uol.com.br/post...va-o-recurso-de-ecg-do-apple-watch-no-brasil/

The Therapeutic Goods Administration in Australia is responsible for approving the ECG app.

Problem is...they can't until a submission has been made, and Apple haven't yet made one. The ball is in Apple's court.

Does anyone know if this is true?
