The decision may have been made to avoid regulation by the FDA, according to BuzzFeed.
"Advanced biotracking sensors would have made the Apple Watch less of a multipurpose consumer device and more of a medical device used to diagnose diseases or track chronic conditions — which could have opened the watch up to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
'I don’t think Apple wants to be a health-monitoring device maker,' said Harry Wang, director of health and mobile product research at Parks Associates. 'They do want to leverage their popularity on the iPhone as a device platform, integrating all health data that can be collected for different devices.'"
