No, but i would expect the heart rate to be reasonably accurate, also the oximeter. But the rest would be inaccurate, or a gimmick.

I was going to ask this question. I’ll be interested to see if anyone does have one.
Advertising standards should be involved if it a gimmick!

Not a con as such, but not accurate enough to be very useful.

There've been a few threads on here about people asking if smart watches claiming to measure bgs work
eg

Blood Glucose Monitoring Watch

Hi All and good evening, Asking on behalf of my husband who has Type 2 controlled with tablets. He is considering buying a blood glucose monitoring watch as his fingers are becoming increasingly sore using lancets. Have any of you lovely people experience of these watches, please.
