Re: Apple Health App
I understand the watch will dial 911 about 30 seconds after a fall unless you interrupt that process. It will advise emergency services that you have fallen and advise your location. I don't know whether there's similar for heart attacks, stroke, etc. Would be interesting to learn. The medical support people I've talked with recently see the watch as a worthy substitute for the older medic alert systems people would wear around the neck. I find all this quite persuasive personally.

RE: Apple Health App
I'm not sure about heart attacks or stroke, but it will notify you if your resting heart rate goes above 120 BPM, you can do an ECG, and depending on which Apple Watch you have you could check your blood oxygen level. You can also use it to track your sleep. It isn't always accurate, but it should get better at it over time. - Original Message - From: 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries Date: Thursday, May 30, 2024 07:33 AM To: 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries Subject: Re: Apple Health App I understand the watch will dial 911 about 30 seconds after a fall unless you interrupt that process.

Re: Apple Health App
Hi ET, I have the series 9. But one thing to know is that Apple got sued for a patent violation with the Oxygen sensor. So The watch 9 no longer comes with that capability. With that in mind, depending on your needs of course, you might want to consider the less expensive series 8. It also contains the emergency alert technology and the fall detection.

Original musician sound on/off?
Hi, on zoom using my iPhone, I was trying to find the button to turn off the original musician sound on zoom for my guitar class. It’s essential that that’s off or it may have to be turned on. I kind of forget right now, but I have to do one or the other for my teacher to hear me better. I could not find this button. Can anyone tell me where it may be? Thanks so much. Patrick.

Re: Original musician sound on/off?
It is called “Original Sound”, and you want it turned on for your guitar sound to go out over Zoom. - Brad - On May 30, 2024, at 16:32, 'Patrick Ford' via MacVisionaries wrote: Hi, on zoom using my iPhone, I was trying to find the button to turn off the original musician sound on zoom for my guitar class.

Re: Apple Health App
I think you mean the blood oxygen sensor. Watches are not cabable of measureing blood pressure. Also, since the Watch 8 was mentioned, the primary difference between a Watch 8 and a Watch 9 that I remember is that the 9 (and also the Ultra 2 ) can do some speech processing on the watch directly and don't need to hand it off. I believe there were also some changes in the technology used for crash detection. .

Re: Original musician sound on/off?
You’ll find it under more, but there are some steps you have to take first. Make sure the option is enabled in your Zoom account. This has to be done on the web site. Next, in the Zoom Options on the phone, Enable it under meetings. Then once you go on a call, you’ll find the option under more to enable it.

RE: Apple Health App
That's right, I had forgotten about that. I have the Series 8, and mine still has the oxygen sensor. It isn't something I typically use, but I just tried it to see if it was still available to me and how it worked. I purchased my Apple Watch long before that lawsuit, though. New Apple Watches will be coming in a few months. It will be interesting to hear what new features and capabilities they will have. - Original Message - From: 'Donna Goodin' via MacVisionaries Date: Thursday, May 30, 2024 01:31 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Apple Health App Hi ET, I have the series 9.
