We knew it was coming, but now it's official: Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 no longer include the blood oxygen monitoring feature.
The change came as a result of a patent dispute between Apple and medical tech company Masimo, which briefly caused Apple to be banned from selling and importing its latest Apple Watch variants in the U.S. Now, to comply with the court's decision, Apple redesigned the new Watch variants without the pulse oximeter, which is used to measure the oxygen saturation level of the user's blood.
Apple now has a notice on top of its Apple Watch website, warning users that the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 now come without the feature. All mentions of the feature were removed from Apple's comparison tool for the Apple Watch as well.

There's a silver lining, however, but only for folks outside the U.S. Since the court's verdict only applies to the U.S., the Blood Oxygen app should continue working on Apple Watch models sold outside of the U.S.
I've tested it out on my Apple Watch Series 9, and it worked as expected.

For now, however, Blood Oxygen monitoring, once touted by Apple as a "breathtaking innovation," remains off limits in the U.S.
