  • The Pixel Watch 3 still hasn’t gained the Loss of Pulse Detection feature Google promised back in February.
  • The feature was supposed to roll out by the end of March.
  • Meanwhile, code within the Pixel Watch app suggests that the feature is on the verge of launching and may require a screening process for activation.

Back in February, Google said that it had received FDA clearance for its critical Loss of Pulse Detection feature, which was first announced in August last year. The safety tool was expected to debut on the Pixel Watch 3, with Google promising a rollout by the end of March. However, as of today, April 1, the feature is still missing from the smartwatch.
