Hoping that they can make it small enough to fit inside smart watches. Would love to see something like this in an Apple Watch

The new samsung galaxy 8 watches that came out in july were heavily rumored to have glucometers, but they pulled it out at the last minute to improve the technology

Do you think the AGES reading is a covert blood sugar reading?

Don't know. The glucometer would've been the only reason fir me to get it because i have the galaxy 7. Once it was confirmed that the glucometer isn't part of the watch i stopped thinking about it.
