maybe never, it's in the hands of your government


ECG is

viewed as a medical device which mean it require official approval from the

government of a country before it's legal for apple to offer


these are the countries which has provided with said approval so far

watchOS - Feature Availability - Apple


ECG

implies that citizens' medical data be stored by a foreign third-party company

without individual approval by the government of said country, and that is not

something all countries feel comfortable with.


when or if your government approve the feature it will be included in the next release of apples watchOS
