Combined with other real time health sensors, the watch will then notify wearers if it detects "consistent signs of moderate to severe sleep apnea," as well as resources for consulting a physician.
It will be accessible on Apple Watch Series 10, Series 9, and Ultra 2.
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman first leaked the announcement before the company's big event, but rumors of the feature have been circulating since last year. At that time, industry insiders believed the Apple Watch could be expanding its health sensors to cover not just sleep apnea, but also diabetes and blood pressure monitoring. It appears mastering sleep is the device's first frontier.
Apple says it's new feature will receive full approval from the FDA and other regulatory bodies soon, and will be available across 150 countries and regions this month, including the U.S., Europe, and Japan.
In February, Samsung introduced the first FDA-approved sleep apnea tracker for its new Galaxy Watch series.
