Health sensors…. So what’s next? And how does it help someone healthy

[1rottenapple]

Ok so reviewers are dinging apple series 7 for having no extra sensors. But really for someone healthy and not experiencing diabetes, what good is a glucose sensor? Or even a temperature sensor, or Inaccurate bmi sensor that galaxy watches have. Is there sometime I’m missing when I don’t need those? I do love the heart sensor for workouts and even sleep tracking since my resting heart rate reflects my improving fitness. But ecg is pretty pointless, blood oxygen is inaccurate.

i want as many health sensors as possible. A new sensor gives me something to research and learn about myself.

I don’t completely disagree with your statements at all. But sensors are good to have because they may show possible signs of health issues before you may actually sense them. Heart murmurs are a good example.

Heart murmers of course with heart sensors. That’s important.

I think glucose monitoring is a few years away but temperature and blood pressure may be available sooner.
