Does anyone know what are the possible results the watch 8 gives for the sleep apnea feature? Is it just a binary, as in: The watch has detected/not detected sleep apnea? Or does it offer more granular results, that rate different levels of sleep apnea on a scale of 1 to 3, or 1 to 5 or something like that?

The sleep apnea feature checks to see if you are at risk and then turns off once you get a result. While I have not personally used the monitoring (I already suffer from a diagnosed sleep disorder,) as far as I know, it does not monitor the severity of the apnea. I believe it just tells if you are "at risk" and directs you to a seek out a sleep study.

@userXN0eF6UKdM It just says possible apnea was detected or nothing was detected. If possible apnea is detected, it refers you to contact a sleep professional for real testing.
