Whoop Adds Bloodwork Uploads Amid Spat With FDA Over How 'Medical' Its Wearable Is
[]
PCMag Australia
Whoop got into hot water with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in July over its latest blood-related feature, Blood Pressure Insights (BPI).
The FDA sent it a warning letter to stop advertising its watches as blood pressure monitors without approval.
"The FDA has not authorized BPI for any use, including for the measurement or estimation of a user's blood pressure," the letter reads.
Whoop is still in talks with the FDA over the blood pressure feature.
The Trump administration seems to acknowledge wearables as legitimate health devices.
