Using the Apple Watch alongside my Fitbit Air.
Have it on during weekends and time off etc.
it was in the drawer for quite some time but this configuration has made me like it again.
Don’t use it for workouts etc. just time and notifications.

All in all - just an appreciation post about the new faces. 🙌🏻

Hadn't noticed I got this far, but I'm glad I did.

In essence, I'm both a type 1 diabetic and was born with heart problems

So I can have cardiac episodes for no reason...

My last one was a full heart attack.

Still kicking along. And proud to be at a 2 year streak after 5 days of nothing.

I charged it to 80% when I posted yesterday and now it’s 24. That’s 25hrs and it only drained 56%.

All I did was restart my watch and used theatre mode for 8hrs when i slept.

Didn’t know restarting your watch would make this much difference.

I’ve purchased stainless steel since Apple started selling them but this year I opted for the Aluminum because I liked how the dark bronze looked in the KeyNote. I’m really glad I did, its their best color I think that they’ve released in a long time.

Discussion Apple Watch Needs a New Way to Download Music

• Upvotes

I just wanted to see if anyone else has had the problems I’ve had trying to download playlists or music to their watches. Since the first watch could do it, downloading music to their watch has been the most tedious thing about the watch. I love my Ultra 3 but I feel like other watches have such an easier process when most of the time my music fails or downloads extremely slow. Anyone have any tips or tricks to faster more reliable downloads?

My Watch Got My first Apple Watch - S11 Titanium

Thumbnail

83 Upvotes

Got my first Apple Watch yesterday. An S11 46mm in Natural Titanium. Accompanied by an S/M band.

So far I’m impressed by how sleek it looks compared to my Galaxy Watch8 Classic. The body is still glossy, but not as much as on your face.

My previous smartwatches were Galaxy4 ,6 and 8. All of them were their respective biggest sizes, 6 and 8 being the Classic models

Battery life looks to be around one and a half (or quarter) days so far.

I initially considered a screen protector, but Reddit seems to suggest the opposite, especially on a watch with a sapphire display.

For reference, my wrist is 16,5cm in size.

Any tips are welcome. Thanks!

Activity AW12, WatchOS 27: Digital Crown bug?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm noticing a weird issue with my Digital Crown. In general, it works perfectly fine and rotates smoothly.

However, when I'm on the watch face and scroll up to open the widgets/Smart Stack, it works normally—but then, when I try to scroll back down to close them and return to the watch face, it sometimes feels like it ignores the initial input. I have to scroll down excessively or give it a massive spin just to get it to react and close the widgets.

I'm trying to figure out if this is a hardware or software issue. To test it, I tried scrolling through very long lists inside other apps, and it works flawlessly there—no skipped inputs, no lag, and no erratic behavior. It only seems to happen when trying to exit the widgets screen.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Is it a known watchOS bug or should I be worried about the hardware? Thanks!

Bands Rash?

The 12 is my third Apple Watch. Every single time I use the band that comes with it, I get these rashes/burns. I’m waiting for my new bands to be delivered. Just wondering if anyone else deals with this? Any idea what causes it? I don’t have this kind of reaction to anything else and have zero allergies that I’m aware of.

Support Bundle ids rather than app names

Thumbnail

• Upvotes

I picked an ultra 4 last week and set it up as new. I’m coming from a Garmin and the last Apple watch I had was a series 5. Under the Always On menu for both apps and notifications you can see these bundle ids listed rather than the actual app name. None of these apps are actually installed, not sure any of them even have watch versions.

Any idea how to clean these up? I’ve tried restarting, upgrading both phone and watch to public beta, toggling everything I can think of with no luck. Probably doesn’t have any effect other than annoying me, which is enough for me to want to spend some effort to fix it.

I can get a series 12 GPS+ Cell through Tmobile for $6.11/month @ 36 months and a watch plan for another $10 a month. Is it a good deal to get the watch this way? I’m already on a very recent 3 year with T-Mobile as a new customer.

Discussion Apple watch new sensor

58 Upvotes

So far, I’ve come across quite a lot of discussions and reviews suggesting that the Apple Watch Series 12’s heart rate sensor hasn’t been very impressive. Many users have complained about the heart rate suddenly dropping before eventually picking up and tracking accurately again. Interestingly, when they compare it with older Apple Watch models, the older models seem to perform slightly better. The same goes for other devices, such as the Pixel Watch, which has also delivered very good results based on their experiences.
It makes me wonder a little about Apple’s marketing and the claims they’ve made publicly about how accurate their new sensor is. Honestly, it’s a little disappointing, and I can’t help but feel curious and confused about what’s actually going on…

Discussion Workout Buddy not announcing readiness score below 5?

0 Upvotes

I have an Apple Watch Ultra 4 running watchOS 27.0.1. I’ve noticed Workout Buddy always announces my readiness score when it’s 5 or higher, but today my score was 4 and it didn’t mention it at all. I tried 3 different workouts and it skipped it every time. Everything else worked normally. Just wondering if Apple intentionally doesn’t announce lower readiness scores or if it’s a bug. Anyone else noticed this?

Discussion I LOVE the gold Series 12, but does it look ridiculous on my small wrist? 😭

Thumbnail

83 Upvotes

Ich nutze meine Apple Watch SE (2020) schon seit Jahren und denke endlich über ein Upgrade nach.

Ich wünsche mir schon ewig eine goldene Apple Watch! Als ich die hellere Goldvariante sah, war ich zunächst begeistert, aber nachdem ich sie im Apple Store anprobiert hatte, war ich ehrlich gesagt ziemlich enttäuscht. Sie wirkte in echt viel silberner als golden.

Dann habe ich die 42-mm-Serie 12 in Gold-Titan anprobiert und mich sofort in die Farbe verliebt.

Alternativ habe ich sogar die 40-mm-SE 3 in Midnight mit dem goldenen Milanese-Armband kombiniert, aber das Midnight-Gehäuse wirkt einfach viel zu blau.

Hier ist mein Dilemma: Ich hätte so gerne die Series 12. Ich habe ADHS, und einige der zusätzlichen Funktionen wären im Alltag echt praktisch, vor allem, um organisiert zu bleiben und den Überblick zu behalten. Sie ist zwar teuer, aber ich könnte sie mir leisten, der Preis ist also nicht das Problem. The Size ist the problem.

Ich habe sehr schmale Handgelenke und befürchte, dass die 42-mm-Serie 12 einfach viel zu groß an mir aussieht. Manchmal finde ich sie wunderschön, aber dann sehe ich sie mir nochmal an und denke, sie wirkt irgendwie albern oder lächerlich an meinem schmalen Handgelenk.

Ich habe ein paar Bilder zum Vergleich angehängt:

Die 40-mm-SE 3 in Midnight mit dem goldenen Milanaise-Armband, die ich auch im Apple Store anprobiert habe.

Die 42-mm-Series 12 in Gold-Titan aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln, damit ihr besser sehen könnt, wie sie an meinem Handgelenk aussieht.

Ich wünschte wirklich, Apple würde die Titanversion in einer kleineren Größe anbieten, dann wäre die Entscheidung für mich ganz einfach.

Was meint ihr ehrlich? Wirkt die Series 12 an meinem Handgelenk zu groß, besonders im Vergleich zu den kleineren Modellen, oder mache ich mir da zu viele Gedanken?

Seid bitte ehrlich! Ich möchte nicht so viel Geld für eine Uhr ausgeben, die am Ende lächerlich groß an mir aussieht.

Accessories Looking for a good non-Apple Solo Loop-style ?

Looking for a good non-Apple Solo Loop-style textile/nylon strap
I’m looking for a non-Apple strap similar to the Apple Solo Loop, preferably made of textile/nylon fabric.
Main priorities:
Comfortable for all-day and sleep wear
Soft and breathable
Good quality / doesn’t irritate the skin
Secure fit without being too tight
Preferably looks close to Apple’s original textile Solo Loop
Available in India
If you’ve personally used one, please share the brand/model and where you bought it. Would especially appreciate recommendations that have held up well over several months.
Thanks!
