Sleep apnea feature missing?

[omawb]

HI, I have used the sleep apnea feature a few times successfully in the past. I can not find the tab either on my watch 7 or samsung s23U in the health monitor app.
News states that this feature is coming, but I used to have it already. Any thoughts?
Thank you!

For something as serious as sleep apnea, you really should go to a sleep lab if you think you have it. Don't even trust those at home sleep tests, which are basically a scam. They use similar watch based tech that is highly inaccurate and mostly just a front for selling more machines to people who's jobs could be put in jeopardy if the company reports a failed test.

That really goes for any health tracking via watch or other consumer wearable. They may work for some things like checking heart rate during exercise, but they are not true medical devices and not trustworthy for diagnosis.

I tried it a couple of times. Both times were non events. And I just looked and, yes, it appears to be gone. Maybe they'll bring it back.

UPDATE: I was looking in the wrong place. I still have the Sleep Apnea feature in the health monitor app (was looking in the Health section of Watch Settings). Perhaps there's been an app update, but when opening the app there are two tabs at the bottom of the page. ECG on the left and Sleep Apnea on the right. I'm still able to use the feature.
