Apple just got FDA clearance for Hypertension Detection - does your watch support it?

The Hypertension feature offers a blood pressure log for tracking diastolic readings. The log can be exported into a PDF to send to a doctor. It also includes reminders to log blood pressure, and classifications based on guidelines from the American Heart Association and the European Society of Cardiology. In developing the feature, Apple used data from more than 100,000 study participants to understand hypertension's presence.
