Apple Watch Hypertension Alerts Roll Out to Seven New Markets

Apple expanded hypertension notifications to seven more countries (Australia, Malaysia, Colombia, Indonesia, South Korea, Brazil, and Turkey) for Apple Watch and iPhone users.

Available on Apple Watch Series 9+ and Ultra 2+ via the Health app, the rollout aims to help address the global burden of hypertension.

Outputs swung widely—ChatGPT gave an F, then a D after adding records; Claude varied between C and B—driven by noisy VO2 max estimates and changing resting heart-rate data. Experts say the analyses are not medical advice, and privacy promises to protect data aren’t HIPAA-covered. While AI health tools could unlock insights, the article argues they’re not ready for personal clinical decisions and should mainly support prepping for a doctor visit.
