That's why I bought one. You just turn on the indicator for irregular heartbeat notification. It periodically analyzes a sample when you are still or resting.

Hi! The Apple Watch SE doesn’t have the ability to record EKG. When I go to my Health app it tells me that the ECG app is unavailable. Here’s what I found on their site about their other watches that do:

“The ECG app on Apple Watch Series 4 or later and all models of Apple Watch Ultra generates an ECG that is similar to a single-lead (or Lead I) ECG.”

Hope this helps!

I bought this for my wife. I just checked and her's does not have the software for the EKG/AF detection included. I don't know, however, if she can add that.
