The Apple Watch Series 4’s ECG Feature May Not Launch in the UK Anytime Soon

Image
Apple announced the Apple Watch Series 4 and grabbed the public’s attention with its new design and features, which includes a brand new Electrocardiogram (ECG) testing feature built into the smartwatch. But while Apple was more than willing to talk about the feature and its impending launch in the United States following approval by the FDA, there was some pause when it came to announcements for international markets . Specifically, there will be a potentially significant waiting period before the ECG testing feature arrives outside of the United States. We know that Apple is working with entities in other countries, like Health Canada , to speed up the process, but there is no telling when the feature will arrive in those other markets.

What’s the Shipping Status of Your iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max?

As I write this, it’s a little before 5:00 PM PST, or 8:00 PM EST, which means that on the other side of the globe the iPhone XS and iPhone XS have been on sale for a bit of time already. And as the hours inch further into night here in my neck-of-the-woods, more and more people are starting to get their hands on Apple’s newest flagship iPhones . We’ve already seen folks get their handsets delivered, and the lines have been forming in markets all over the globe in preparation. But for a lot of us, me included, we’re still left to wait in the wings. There’s always that question of whether or not everything is going to work out. While the order might be placed, and a date has been given to us as an “expected delivery”, or something similar to that, there’s always that hesitation. Will we actually get it on that date?
