Smart watch blood pressure function

[Countrydweller2]

I love the ECG function on my Galaxy watch and the blood pressure until I noticed the instruction not to use if on meds etc. I don't understand why it's safe for Afib but not for BP. Can anyone explain please?

My cousin has this. I think those warnings are required by law, that is all as Samsung likely has to have regulatory approval for the health related apps on their watch. It's interesting that Apple has yet to include this function despite, I gather, having the technology - again, I imagine it's for regulatory reasons.

Thank you! It does seem strange though that BP is dangerous but ECG isn't. Shrug!
