10 Apple Watch Ultra Health Features to Utilize
Apple prides itself on the effectiveness of the Apple Watch when it comes to its health features. These features help people stay mindful of their health throughout the day and even save lives. If you own an Apple Watch Ultra or are considering getting one, here is a list of ten health features you don’t want to miss.
1. ECG App
ECG stands for electrocardiogram, a test that records your heartbeat. It provides insights into the strength and frequency of your heart's activity. Our hearts reveal a lot about our overall health, and by monitoring irregularities in your heartbeat, you can detect potential issues early before they worsen.
Knowing our wrist temperature can signal when we may be getting sick, provide insights into our sleep patterns, and benefit women’s health.
Whether your sleep quality is good or bad, sleep tracking helps you identify the differences between restful and restless nights. These insights can lead to lasting improvements in your sleep.
Your Apple Watch can track breathing disturbances throughout the night. Each morning, you'll receive an assessment, and if signs of sleep apnea are detected, you will be notified so you can share the insights with a healthcare provider.
The Training Load feature shows how much strain you're putting on your body and predicts how it may affect your body in the future.
Noise monitoring will notify you when noise levels in your environment reach an unhealthy level.
Cardio Fitness is a measure of how efficiently your heart and lungs supply oxygen to your body during exercise. On the Apple Watch, it is based on your VO₂ max level. Receiving a notification if your VO₂ max is low for your age and gender is important, as it may indicate potential health risks or cardiovascular issues.
8. Mindfulness
The Mindfulness app on the Apple Watch encourages you to take breaks for guided breathing exercises and reflection. These sessions are designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance focus during your day.
9. GymKit
Apple Watch supports GymKit, a feature that allows it to pair with compatible gym equipment for accurate data sharing, such as heart rate, calories burned, and distance.
10. Stand Reminder
The Apple Watch's Stand Reminder is perfect for desk-bound workdays, encouraging you to stand and move every hour. Regular movement promotes blood flow and reduces sedentary behavior, helping you stay active and healthy throughout the day.
The ten features listed above are invaluable for supporting overall health goals. If you’re serious about improving your health, we recommend setting up these features with your personal information and goals for the best results.
