Apple posted two more real-life stories of people who say the Apple Watch helped save their lives, one from a heart rate alert and one from a push to move more.
Apple has added two more videos to its "True Apple Watch Story" series, each featuring a person who credits the watch with saving their life. One is about a woman whose watch woke her with a warning. The other is about a man who lost weight after the watch got him moving.
In the first video, a woman named Morgan says her Apple Watch woke her with high heart rate alerts. She turned out to have a kidney infection. It was heading toward septic shock, a life-threatening reaction to infection.
The second video features a man named Josh. He weighed 340 pounds until the Apple Watch motivated him to be more active. The video is built around the watch's Activity Rings, which track daily movement. The source says he used the watch to lose weight.
This is not the first story in the series. Apple earlier shared the story of a woman who was alerted to changes in her resting heart rate. When she went to the doctor, she was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer. She was able to get treatment.
These are personal accounts, shared by Apple as part of its own series. They show how a watch can catch something odd and prompt a person to act. They do not show how often this happens, and the material gives no numbers on that.
A watch can flag unusual heart rate changes, but it is not a doctor. It cannot diagnose an infection or a disease on its own. If an alert worries you, or you feel unwell, see a doctor.
An Apple Watch alert can be a useful nudge, but it is not a diagnosis, so see a doctor if a heart rate alert worries you.
