Garmin watches could soon be able to detect atrial fibrillation

– but ECG readings can provide a useful indication that you should get yourself checked out by a medical professional. Considering how advanced Garmin is in the smartwatch space, it’s interesting that it’s taken the company so long to get here, and that it hasn't considered the feature a priority in the same way as its competitors.

Garmin’s website informs us that newer watches can identify “abnormal” heart rate spikes after a workout. It says “if you are inactive for 10 minutes or more, and your heart rate stays above your set threshold, you’ll get an alert on the watch. This setting is found under the Heart Rate settings typically accessed from the Heart Rate widget on the watch”.
