Q: Apple Watch Heart Sensor
Hey there,
I have owned an Apple Watch Sport for a while sometime running on the latest update (2.2.2), now the watch doesn't always give the correct reading for some reason, oddly the watch will also give me a reading even if I'm not wearing it in the first place, is this a manufacture defect, or something else that needs attention from apple itself ?
Apple Watch, watchOS 2.2.1, watchOS 2.2.2*

Hi
If you tell your watch to measure your heart rate (via the Heart Rate Glance) when you are not wearing it, the watch will still try to do so.
Factors that may affect your watch's ability to accurately measure your heart rate are explained here:
