Get the ecg app activation from Shopee

If using an account can unlock ECG, then what is the difference on activate using SG apple account to activate when at SG?

Did anyone try this method before? mind to share? After activate with given ID, can I switch back on my own ID for apps download?

The account sold online already have the activation flag saved in icloud, so when it syncs with your Health app, it enables ECG functionality on your watch due to some changes by Apple.

lets say you use SG apple account and is at SG, how are you gonna "Activate" ? your MY firmware watch will not have ECG app, so there is no way to "activate" it.

You need to understand that the recent change by Apple is that: if your health data already contains the activation flag -> enable ECG on your watch no matter the region it is bought from.

So this only one-off account activation for ECG function enable and after that can use back own account for health data sync and apps download to watch?
