The Apple Watch has long been known as a very helpful tool to help improve health. In fact, there are hundreds of stories of how it has save people’s lives.

In taking this notion a step further, scientists have recently initiated a study on whether wearables can actually detect early symptoms of COVID-19.

According to the New York Times, with the help of the MyDataHelps research app, this study lasted from March 25, 2020 to January 21, 2021 and included a sample of at least 37,000 people with wearables.

Later, in October, researchers indicated that they could get a more accurate detection of COVID from the collected data.

Now, the research is taking the next step by further by analyzing the data to find long-term effects of COVID. While they initially focus on data from Fitbit users, Dr. Radin says that they are planning more research in the future.
