ECG outside USA

[kevingaffney]

As someone with AFib and who would benefit greatly from the watch series 4, I’m curious would changing location services get the feature to work outside USA as I know full well from previous things launched, it could take years for approval in Europe

Is not activated for a month or two but I have afib too. It’s why I upgraded, the main reason. I want to take ecg readings so I know when I am having PVCs too. My guess is whatever the medical certifying body is in the UK hasn’t approved it yet or denied it. You should just buy a watch from the USA in a month or two from eBay or a friend in the United States. As a fellow person with heart problems I’d be happy to help you with it if you want and are willing to trust me with your PayPal.
