In February, Samsung received FDA approval for a sleep apnea detection feature on Galaxy Watches.
A Reddit user posted screenshots showing the feature active on their Samsung Health app.
The feature is expected to officially launch with the One UI 6 Watch on the Galaxy Watch 7 at the upcoming Unpacked event.

The highly anticipated Galaxy Unpacked event is just around the corner, and we have a fairly good idea of what to expect from Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra. Earlier this year, Samsung made news by obtaining FDA clearance for sleep apnea detection, which is the first for any consumer smartwatch.

And now, thanks to a Reddit thread spotted by 9to5Google, we have our first glimpse into how this feature could work.
