Re: Apple Watch as a Health Monitor

Re the fall monitor, I have an android which has fall detection as well as manual activation - my license to climb on ladders and do other things old fartz shouldn't do. Had a potentially serious (ie fatal) fall the other day, watch strap came undone, no automatic activation occurred. Dunno if it was the loose watch that couldn't detect the impact, or feature just not working. Not planning any more testing either!
Noteworthy that I have not had even one of the false alarms I was warned about either - I think I would be happier if they were proving a nuisance.
I think the 'call 000' function is the most important feature for someone like me, living alone and somewhat isolated from neighbors.
I have all the health stuff too, mostly ignore it all, I have 'proper' BP monitor and oximeter if needed.
