Add SpO2 tracking to Google Pixel watch

Please enable this feature. The watch has the sensor, so why can it not be used?

Where is SPO2 on pixel watch? The sensor is already there and definitely needed!

It's not FDA approved yet.

Seems odd they would use a different sensor than is used on the Fitbit watches. If it is the same sensor why would the FDA not approve it?

I agree I feel like this is the only feature missing from a great device. It is one feature I absolutely want and It is definitly preventing me from purchasing a Pixel watch for fear it will never get activaed. 

I have seen speculation that it is due to FDA approvel but haven't seen any confimation from fitbit or Google that is the reason. 

So is the SPo2 feature even on the roadmap for the Pixel watch? If so is it a realistic expectation it will become available soon?
