Apple Watch Blood Oxygen Tracker Back in US
Apple Inc. is restoring the blood oxygen tracking feature on its smartwatch in the US following a years-long legal fight. The feature — which was removed at the end of 2023 due to a patent infringement lawsuit filed by Masimo Corp. and a US Customs injunction — will return for Apple Watch owners who bought models with the feature disabled, the company said Thursday, citing a ruling by US Customs. The restoration comes as part of iOS 18.6.1 and watchOS 11.6.1 software updates — and includes a workaround that shows the data on an iPhone rather than the Apple Watch blood oxygen app itself. The development is hitting at a key time for Apple. The company is expected to unveil new Apple Watch models next month, alongside its iPhone 17 line. Now it will once again be able to market that health feature alongside other tools like heart rate monitoring. (Source: Bloomberg)

iOS 18.6.1 And watchOS 11.6.1 Launch With Restored Blood Oxygen Feature In The U.S.
A couple of weeks after releasing the iOS 18.6 and watchOS 11.6 updates, Apple has just launched iOS 18.6.1 and watchOS 11.6.1. These new software versions restore the blood oxygen functionality banned from American Apple Watch models due to a legal dispute between Masimo and Apple. By the end of 2023, this legal battle briefly forced Apple to halt Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 sales. Then, by the beginning of 2024, the company resumed sales of the smartwatches, but without the blood oxygen functionality. More frustrating for users, if they needed to repair an Apple Watch, it would lose support for this previously built-in functionality. In a press release shared earlier this morning, the company announced that these users will now have access to "redesigned blood oxygen features by updating their paired iPhone to iOS 18.6.1 and their Apple Watch to watchOS 11.6.1." According to the company, the captured data will be measured and calculated on the iPhone, with the results available in the Respiratory section of the Health app. Read more: How To Control An iPad With Your iPhone Blood Oxygen's Comeback Is Good News For Future Apple Watch Features While Apple says nothing is changing for those who purchased a newer Apple Watch outside the U.S., it's good to see this functionality making a comeback in one of Apple's most important markets. More than that, restoring blood oxygen support could also lead to other new health features. In a previous report, Bloomberg suggested that Apple plans to add blood pressure monitoring to the Apple Watch Series 11. The device is expected to be unveiled next month alongside the iPhone 17. The blood pressure technology is expected to follow the same path as the blood oxygen and sleep apnea functionalities, where Apple warns users that there might be something wrong depending on the measurements. While the sensors won't have the same FDA approval certificate as the ECG sensor, at least it's going to be something users can check with the watch. Read the original article on BGR.

Wear OS smartwatches no longer have this leg up over the Apple Watch
Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Apple is restoring blood oxygen tracking to certain US Apple Watch models via iOS and watchOS updates. The refreshed setup uses the watch to take readings but calculates and displays results on the paired iPhone. The feature was removed in January 2024 due to a patent dispute and an import ban. Apple Watch owners in the US are getting a health-tracking feature back that many thought might be gone for good. After more than a year in limbo, the blood oxygen tool is returning to the Apple smartwatch range, though not quite in the way you remember. Don't want to miss the best from Android Authority? Set us as a preferred source in Google Search to support us and make sure you never miss our latest exclusive reports, expert analysis, and much more. As Bloomberg reports, the reactivation follows a US Customs ruling and arrives as part of iOS 18.6.1 and watchOS 11.6.1. If you've got a Series 9, Series 10, or Ultra 2 model that shipped without the feature, the update lets the watch's sensors take the reading but shifts the number-crunching to your paired iPhone. You'll find the results tucked into the Respiratory section of the Health app instead of the watch's own Blood Oxygen app. Apple removed the feature from new Series 9 and Ultra 2 units sold in the US from January 18, 2024, after the US Court of Appeals allowed an import ban tied to a patent dispute with Masimo Corp. to take effect. The hardware sensor never went away, but the software was locked down, and Apple warned at the time that the legal process could drag on for a year or more. By moving part of the process off the watch, Apple has found a way to bring the readings back without breaking the rules. The update is rolling out now, just weeks before the expected debut of the Apple Watch Series 11 alongside the iPhone 17. Follow
