Was planning to give to her solely for health tracking options. She’s not too great with technology and eyesight ain’t the greatest to use text typing on watch to respond to people. Also doesn’t quite workout much so don’t really know if step tracking is much useful even. What the watch would do primarily would be sleep tracking and heart rate monitoring. A friend of mine suggested to get a yearly heart checkup (ECG, tmt, etc) instead of investing in the watch since it’s anyways not a medical grade thing and I am skeptical now about how to go about it. Anyone with suggestions? Btw planning a 41mm Series 8 in case if that’s important.

    Is she open to trying and learning to use new tech? If she’s not, there’s a good chance this will sit in the box, get returned, or cause frustration. Source: seen it happen 3 times to people close to me.

      She is open to new things but the screen size and lack of activity in general is what bothers me. She got her first iPhone 2 years back so I’d say she can learn things if they’re simple enough. She teaches kids so I believe learning is always important to her:)
