Don’t look for an Apple Watch with non-invasive glucose monitoring anytime soon

Don’t look for an Apple Watch with non-invasive glucose monitoring anytime soon. Such a feature is still years away, according to Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman.

Such a feature has been rumored for years. For example, in May 2017, BGR claimed that plans to introduce a “game-changing” glucose monitoring feature in an upcoming smartwatch. And in January 2021, ETNews predicted that the Apple Watch Series 7, would sport blood glucose monitoring via an optical sensor.

Of course, this never happened. Ditto a 2017 claim by BGR that Apple planned a “game-changing” glucose monitoring feature in an upcoming smartwatch.

This info from Gurman is from the free edition of “Power On”. If you like it, consider subscribing to Bloomberg.com—you’ll receive the newsletter earlier and get exclusive access to a Q&A section.
