At the same time, my mother was having her 3rd surgery which was very life-threatening and I was the eldest of all my siblings, my father was in Bahrain and could not come because of covid lockdown so all the major responsibility was on my shoulders. What was causing the rapid heartbeat? Well, my doctors(after doing all the necessary tests) indicated I had high levels of Anxiety even my physician scolded me for this that I am just 26 and should not be having this level of Anxiety. After everything went well with the surgery and all, I started focusing on my stress levels which eventually brought my heart rate down.

The Apple Watch is not certified or able to warn you or detect a heart attack, because that requires a more sophisticated multi lead EKG approach and interpretation. The FDA doesn’t approve that except for medical grade or hospital grade devices like an EKG machine and certain types of blood test, only useable by techs and doctors to interpret. Learn the warning signs of heart attack and if you do have any of those symptoms, seek medical care urgently.

Whenever I wash my hands or have a shower, Siri activates without me saying ' Hey Siri' and not pressing the Digital Crown. Unfortunately my wrist is not that flexible to suggest that it's pressing against the crown. Furthermore, Siri ( on my watch) randomly activates when I am having a conversation on the phone or with someone face to face. Those conversations do not include phrases ' hey Siri'. I have uploaded an example of Siri activating to the sound of running water, on my channel. Appreciate any views ?

Unless you have small ankles, probably no band is big enough to go over your feet or wrap around an ankle. The Apple Watch sensors are designed to work best on either wrist. You can get them in aluminum in pink, midnight black, starlight white, silver or red, or stainless steel in mirror polished gold, silver or graphite, 2 different sizes and about 6 different styles and 40 different colors.

I have the Apple Watch ⌚️ series 3 and fell twice and it never called for emergency services. When I went to my Orthopedic appointment the next day he ordered X-rays and MRI’s. I had multiple broken bones 🦴. The whole reason why I purchased the watch was reading about the 16 year old sitting 🪑 in church ⛪️ when her watch went off in Florida. Her mother, a registered nurse 👩🏼‍⚕️, duplicating the findings took her to Urgent Care and then an Emergency 🚨 Room. The young ladies kidneys were functioning at less than 10 or 20%. She would have died because her mother, the nurse, ignored all of her other symptoms. My Orthopedic noted in my chart that the Apple Watch ⌚️ “did not” notify Emergency 🚨 Services.
