No, Apple Watch cannot detect heart attacks. It can only detect irregular heart rhythms, which are a risk factor for stroke. If you ever experience chest pain, pressure, tightness, or what you think is a heart attack, call emergency services using your iPhone or Apple Watch manually and immediately.
