Was planning to give to her solely for health tracking options. She’s not too great with technology and eyesight ain’t the greatest to use text typing on watch to respond to people. Also doesn’t quite workout much so don’t really know if step tracking is much useful even. What the watch would do primarily would be sleep tracking and heart rate monitoring. A friend of mine suggested to get a yearly heart checkup (ECG, tmt, etc) instead of investing in the watch since it’s anyways not a medical grade thing and I am skeptical now about how to go about it. Anyone with suggestions? Btw planning a 41mm Series 8 in case if that’s important.

    100% I gave it to my dad who uses it 24x7 and shares his health with me. I live across the world but I always know his heart rate, respiratory rate, O2 saturations, any fall information. I know how much he has walked. If he is sleeping well. Basically if anything happens to him I will probably know before the person in the next room does. He also shares his location with me so I know where he is all the time. Basically it’s excellent for that one impending day that every one of us dreads. I have the same with my wife.
