Apple Watch gets FDA approval for new sleep apnea detection
Briefly

Apple's new sleep apnea detection feature has received FDA approval, highlighting its safety and effectiveness. This approval aligns perfectly with the upcoming release of WatchOS 11.
Sleep apnea is a serious health condition characterized by breathing interruptions during sleep, leading to health risks. Apple's feature provides a non-intrusive way to assess the risk.
The FDA defines the Apple Watch's sleep apnea detection as an over-the-counter device that assesses the risk of sleep apnea but does not provide a standalone diagnosis.
Traditional sleep apnea tests can be expensive and require a mask or a doctor's prescription, while Apple's solution offers a more accessible alternative for users.
