With a slight delay, Apple has now released watchOS 5.2 for compatible Apple Watch models. In addition to improvements and changes, bugs have also been fixed.
The time has finally come - Apple is activating the ECG function in Europe. After the ECG function for the Apple Watch Series 4 was indirectly announced in the days before, it is now official. With watchOS 5.2, the Apple Watch 4 can now take ECG measurements and detect cardiac arrhythmias. Owners of an Apple Watch Hermès Edition can also look forward to a new watch face in two colors. As part of this, Apple has rolled out the first beta for macOS 10.14.5.
The full list of countries where the ECG function is currently available:
Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Guam, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States and US Virgin Islands.
Here we show you how to use the ECG app on your Apple Watch Series 4.
