The heart rate sensors in Apple Watch have previously helped people such as authors learn that they have atrial fibrillation. Now it was athlete, basketball star, and commentator Sean Elliott who got the notification — and ignored it.
According to San Antonio TV station KSAT, Elliott paid no attention to his Apple Watch because he had no recognizable symptoms.
