Apple Brings Back Blood Oxygen Monitoring With a Twist in iOS 18.6.1
Apple just pushed iOS 18.6.1 and watchOS 11.6.1 — and Blood Oxygen Monitoring is back in the U.S.! After the Masimo patent dispute, Apple’s found a clever workaround: your watch takes the readings but your iPhone does the processing. You’ll find your results in the Health app. It’s not the old system, but it’s better than nothing.
