Mobile ECG device firm AliveCor sues Apple for alleged patent infringement
What took AliveCor so long? ECG started with Series 4, they mention Series 5, and now Apple sells Series 6.In fact, I remember AliveCor specifically mentioning how the Series 4 ECG is not as good as its device when the Series 4 first came out.And how AliveCor was going to be pushing forward with better hardware like the one that you would touch to your ankle to get six points.

Apple's sleep and health tracking ambitions extend to blankets and mattresses
I wonder if something like this could be used for alerting someone to sleep apnea. Or even somehow communicating with a CPAP.
Having gone for a sleep test, it is harrowing if you don't sleep the way they want you to with all those things hooked up to your head.
I could not sleep on my back the way I was told I had to and spent the whole night pretty much awake. Results inconclusive.

Blood oxygen sensor, Touch ID rumored for 'watchOS 7,' Apple Watch 'Series 6'
I would guess it would be related to sleep tracking, since sleep apnea deprives a person of oxygen.danvdr said:Seems to me that blood oxygen will largely be a cool party trick. A) Unless you are quite sick, your O2 is normal.
If you are quite sick and aren't getting enough O2 your body detects it and you feel short of breath and start breathing faster/harder. The O2 sensor gives you a number; whether you head to the doctor or not will depend on how you feel...

Google apps continue to track users even if location services are disabled
Well, obviously, it's not Google's fault.It's the fault of end users not knowing how to navigate several baffling layers of Settings (with informative double-negative names) to turn things off, because everyone wants those things on by default. Kind of like a do-not-call list, the default is to invite telemarketers to call you.
