Added functions for measuring oxygen in the blood and tracking the menstrual cycle
Honor-sponsored Huawei Honor has announced the start of the distribution of Honor MagicWatch 2 smartwatch software updates ( review ), expanding the functionality of the device.
The watch Honor MagicWatch 2 has a function to measure the level of oxygen in the blood. Not even Apple Watch has one.
Updates are available internationally, including to Russian users. In the near future, users will receive updates with SpO2 oxygen saturation monitoring technology and a menstrual cycle tracking function.
The SpO2 measurement function will appear after installing the update, which can be installed “over the air” through the “Health” application (Huawei Health). This will happen from April 14 to 18 for both the 46 mm version and the 42 mm version. Note that the popular Apple Watch does not have such a function yet.
The function of tracking the menstrual cycle (Female Cycle Tracker) calculates the estimated period of the cycle, predicts premenstrual symptoms, analyzes the quality of sleep and other physiological parameters. Users can view statistics on all received data in the Health application (Huawei Health), and also subscribe to receive push notifications a few days before the expected date of the start of the menstrual cycle. It will become available after updating “by air” from April 14 to 18 to users of the 42 mm version and from April 14 to May 10 to users of the 46 mm version.
