Apple Watch users will benefit from the Vitals app in watchOS 11, Apple’s VP of Health has said, but it’s something that will only really be useful when you sleep.

Apple has provided limited sleep tracking in the Apple Watch for a few years, as part of its overall health and wellbeing offering. However, in watchOS 11, a new addition will require users to wear the Apple Watch as they slumber to get a better reading of their health.
In an interview with CNET, Apple VP of Health Dr. Sumbul Desai explains how the Vitals app will provide a daily overview of a user’s health, as collected by the Apple Watch. This information will include things like sleep data, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood oxygen level, and skin temperature at rest when the user is asleep.
