    I don’t want to be the guy responsible for the message the app gives you. How would you word that? Would you even want to know?

    “The movement recorded by your smart watch indicates you might want to see a neurologist regarding the onset of early stages of Parkinson. Good luck.”

    But holy shit, that is incredible.

      Samsung is already in the process of enabling the “we are detecting the early stage of a heart attack” with their watch. And they already have a “I am sleeping” mode, so they are in a very good position to implement that feature. But I agree… Imagine receiving that message. It could be devastating.
