Get the Kardiamobile Personal EKG instead. Super small. And it gives medical grade EKGs that can be sent to your doctor. Under $100.

I would do what the previous poster said, but he your buddy really needs it in a watch, the Samsung Galaxy Watches has the feature and it's accurate enough.

I had a patient about three moths ago that came to me for eye irritation. I check her BP with a machine and it wouldn't pick it up. I then took it manually and realized something was wrong. Listened to her heart and realized she was in afib (atrial fibrillation).
When I told her that and that the rate was very high, she said "I got an apple watch and it says my heart rate is always good." She then said she thinks she needs to change the settings on the watch to make it detect it.
She tapped a few times on the watch and at first it said it was a normal heart rate. Then about 10 seconds later the phone buzzed, she checked it, and it told her she was in afib.
I put her on the monitor and she was running 90s-160s afib.
Long story short, an apple watch can/may detect afib.
