Since the first release, Apple Watches include a heart rate sensor and accelerometers/gyroscopes for [[activity tracking]]. Since 2020, some Apple Watch models also do rudimentary [[sleep tracking]], though the capabilities are still somewhat behind other wearables. Since the 4th generation, Apple Watches also include an [[ECG]] sensor that can be used to take manual readings and since the 6th generation they it includes a [[Oxygen saturation|Blood oxygen]] sensor. Beyond this, the Apple Watch also uses its microphone to regularly record environmental noise levels. |

− | The iPhone app [ | + | The iPhone app [https://apps.apple.com/us/app/health-auto-export-json-csv/id1115567069 Health Auto Export] provides a way to export selected data in JSON, CSV or GPX files (the latter for geolocation data from workouts). The CSV format in particular can be used to import data into Excel or other spreadsheet software. While the base-version of the application is free, additional export options can also be made available through an in-app purchase. This allows to automatically sync data to iCloud and also provides a way to synchronize data to other external services. |
