ECG app on Fenix 8

How can the ECG app be accessed on my Fenix 8? I have no desire to read all the detailed information on the Garmin app or my phone. And I don't want to set up the two factor authentication. I just want to do the test and see the result on the watch. I used to be able to do this with my Fenix 7 Pro but this feature seems to be absent from the 8.  Did Garmin gimp the 8 and remove the ECG app on the watch?

    Seems like to read the documentation would help. To bad you are to lazy for this. 

    ECG on Fenix 8 is working like intended. I had no Fenix 7 pro but I would bet it’s exactly the same.

    Hello

    I understand wanting to get started using this. To setup and use ECG:

    1. With the watch paired to the Connect app, open the app
    2. Tap on your watch
    3. Select Finish setup
    4. Select Setup ECG App
    5. Follow the on-screen instructions
    6. Once Setup is complete, you will be able to take a ECG reading

    To take an ECG reading: 

    1. While wearing the watch, press the Start button
    2. Select the ECG app
    3. Following the on-screen instructions
    4. Sit comfortably, with arm resting, and remain still
    5. Place your thumb and forefinger on the bezel of the watch, and keep them there to start recording
    6. Keep you fingers in plan, and remain still throughout the recording
    7. Once recording is complete you can review this
