Anyone here using a smartwatch or one of those EKG cards that wireless connects to your phone for detecting AFib?

My wife uses that feature on her apple watch. Her cardiologists like it and say it's very good at detecting a-fib, but not everything it detects is a-fib. For her it also sometimes alerts for other atrial arrhythmias, but her docs like to know that, too.

I would consider Apple as my last resort. I'm a cranky old man who doesn't want to become part of Tim Cook's iBorg.
