Pulse oximeter - 4 questions :-)

Hello,

Tell me please...
1. is there any point in using pulse ox when living on alt about 80 meters above see level?
2. Is there any temperature above which it make sense to turn the pulse ox on?
3. Is there any option to start pulse ox 'on demand' for example in the morning, after I wake up (not all day or all night)?
4. How does acclimatization work? I know that it is somehow connected with heat and altitude but I can't see any widget connected with acclimatization

Thans for your helop

My understanding is that for most healthy individuals, if for several days you only see normal values on this, then no.
I don't know
Yes. Disable all day Pulse Ox tracking. Set one of the widget pages as Pulse Ox. When you flip to that page, leave it up long enough to take a reading (may take a while). You'll see individual points for when you took readings, but not all day readings.

1. Not really

2, I wasn't aware temperature was a factor? I thought it was based on altitude.

3. I just start mine with the widget whenever I'm curious.
