rewrite this title Galaxy Watch to detect signs of sleep apnea as the FDA gives the all-clear

What you need to know

  • Samsung states it has cleared the FDA in the U.S. to bring its sleep apnea detection software to the Galaxy Watch.
  • The feature will be available for users over the age of 22 and users must track their sleep for more than four hours within ten days.
  • Samsung’s sleep apnea detection is said to arrive during Q3 2024 on the Galaxy Watch series.

Samsung is preparing to bring its sleep apnea detection software to the U.S. as it receives approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

According to Samsung, the feature can “detect signs” of sleep apnea whenever a user is wearing a compatible Galaxy Watch with a Galaxy phone. Once it arrives, users over the age of 22 can detect signs of “moderate to severe” OSA (obstructive sleep apnea). The company adds that while this is intended to be used whenever a user desires, it is not intended for those who’ve been previously diagnosed with sleep apnea.
