Can any iPhone connect to the Apple Watch 6? Will the ECG function of the Apple Watch work with any iPhone that supports the app or only certain models?

The ECG on an Apple Watch 6 works fine with my iPhone 12. Will it also work with a 2020 iPhone SE? > The ECG on an Apple Watch 6 works fine with my iPhone 12. Will it also work with a 2020 iPhone SE? I know, of course that the Apple Watch 6 will work with a 2020 iPhone SE, but before the phone is taken out of the box and my wife’s Apple Watch transfered to it from my iPhone 12 mini, I want to make sure that the app she uses most (and the reason for buying the Apple Watch for her at all) - the ecg app - will still work with an iPhone SE (2020) [My assumption is that it will as it is a function of the watch not the phone, but I can’t find this stated anywhere despite a number of ”clever” searches]

Can the ECG functionality on the watch be used without having an iPhone? Can you get the ECG app to use with the watch through an iPad or does it have to be an iPhone? looking to use the ECG feature of the Apple Watch 6 but have an android phone. I know they are not compatible but I am wondering if the watch can be used as a stand alone without a phone
