AFib History gives you a weekly estimate of the amount of time your heart shows signs of AFib, also known as AFib burden.

You can track this long-term and share this information with your physician for richer conversations. Although AFib can occur at any time, there are factors that may impact the percentage of time your heart shows signs of AFib.

After gathering enough readings, every Monday users receive weekly alerts on Apple Watch with the estimated percentage of time their heart showed signs of AFib from the previous week.

Users can also view their history in greater detail in the Health app.

AFib History Highlights show the day of week and time of day the users’ heart is most frequently showing signs of AFib. This can help assess how life factors may be impacting their condition.

If the user is set up to share health data in the Health app, family and friends can receive updates on their AFib History. Users can also export their AFib History data to a PDF to share.
