Farah Top 5 Smartwatches and Fitness Bands Available in India That Can Help Track Oxygen Levels
The COVID-19 situation in India is dire at the moment and to continue tracking your health it is essential to have a pulse oximeter at home. Not only does it measure oxygen saturation in the blood, but it also helps monitor the health of coronavirus patients. However, with pulse oximeters becoming scarce in the country, you can also invest in smartwatches and fitness bands that support SpO2 level monitoring. These smartwatches cannot replace a traditional pulse oximeter, it’s still a great gadget to have on you at all times so it can alert users with symptoms or help track mild cases:

If you’re an iPhone user, you really can’t get a better smartwatch than the Apple Watch Series 6. The watch tracks your SpO2 levels in the background and notifies the user if it drops below the level recommended. With the Apple Watch, you can also store all your data on the Health app which can be shared with your doctor as a PDF file. The Apple Watch Series 6 is by far the most accurate smartwatch you can get for SpO2 readings, as we tested the results and compared it to a traditional pulse oximeter. The results are typically off by 1%, which is quite impressive considering the smartwatch isn’t considered traditional medical equipment.
