I even removed the card and readded it to my phone, etc... just hangs. Rebooted both devices... checked Apple Pay server is up. You know, I do wonder if this and the Home Automation (not watch related) and the unlock iMac are all 10.1 public beta related...

I just got a new phone. Do I have to go through the unpair process on my old one first or is there a way to carry it over to the new one since I'm restoring a backup to the new phone?

Phone will tell you what to do, you wipe the watch and the phone restores it. So yeah I guess its the unpair process.

Yes, unpair on the old phone, which will make the Watch backup to your phone. THEN back up your old phone to restore to your new phone. Then repair.

How does unlocking your Mac with the Watch work? The first thing I do when I get home is take off my Watch and place it on its charging dock.

Looked up a recipe online and had my hands dirty so I didn't want to type my PW to unlock the screen when I went back to check.

My watch unlocking is also flaky. I'd say it's been about 50% successful so far. I guess I could stand to at least reboot both devices to see if it improves things, and I also suspect MacID might be interfering. I'm keeping that around, though, since they updated it for Sierra and it tap-to-password works again. Apple should really implement that into watchOS. If it uses wifi, maybe that's it? My rMBP renews wifi if it's been sleeping for a while, which takes longer than the watch unlocking process. Dunno if that's a macOS thing or a "I need to configure my router better" thing. enojy fucked around with this message at 15:58 on Oct 4, 2016 |

I upgraded to a Series 1 and now both my old and new watch show up in the security preferences under auto unlock, and there's no way to get the old one to disappear even after removing it from my iCloud devices or whatever. #FirstWorldProblems LOL

Is anyone else having trouble with Activity Sharing? It just hangs on the accept friend request prompt whenever I try and share with my girlfriend. Internet search isn't giving me anything.

I got a free antiglare screen protector from one of those Amazon review scams that just got banned. All I can say is: lol people buy these things? It makes the Watch look so cheap and plasticy. Don't buy these things.

So if I got a Series 2 watch and turned off GPS and kept the screen at a decent brightness, would my battery last longer than the batter on a Series 1?

GPS is automatic. It only turns on if it's away from your phone. But yeah, I've been getting better battery than my first generation.

I don't think you need to turn off GPS, I think it'll only use that when using an exercise app without the phone present. I'm making that up but it makes sense.

I"m still surprised at how much battery I'm getting. Up at 5:40am, exercise mode during my walk/jog to the office, calendar notifications from 6:30 till 4, another jog/walk home, all the while I'm using the watch to control my phone's audio and doing the stupid breathing thing, etc. This is basically the perfect gadget for me. Once I get homekit stuff integrated I'm going to get so reliant on it to boot.

I've got a raspberrypi running Homebridge to fake my existing z-wave stuff as HomeKit-compliant. It's mostly a party trick, but "hey Siri unlock the front door" from my watch feels like the future is now.

I've been wearing and using it for the last 8 hours, went for some exercise, replying to messages etc:  less than 15% battery used. This thing is awesome.

My battery life isn't anything like that, though it's still acceptable. I took it off after 13ish hours and it had 30% battery left.

Thanks for the responses I guess my real question is: does the battery life of the 2 make it a better choice overall than the 1? Or should I just go with the 1 since the processor is the same? I don't swim a ton or really need the GPS for fitness tracking as I just use stationary stuff to work out, so which is a better option for me?

My battery was totally hosed my s0 until I turned off background refresh on the apps I didn't use that often. I was at 5-10% at 10pm before and right now I'm at 58%.

On moderate use, my s0 is sitting at 47% after 12 hours. I've never used the workout app, I just track my activity with the basic activity function. I receive a fair amount of texts, slack, and other notifications throughout the day, but it's still mostly "glance, OK done" so I don't consider that "heavy" usage. I feel like it's worth it to bite the bullet and upgrade for the battery life and better processor speed alone. Leif. fucked around with this message at 07:33 on Oct 5, 2016 |

S2 42MM at 77%. Off charger 7 hours, worked out for an hour (Other activity, unsure if GPS is active at that time). On days I workout I usually get it back on the charger after 18-19 hours with 25-35% left. This thing is a beast and loving it.

Meanwhile my S0 is at 84% after 2hrs of just being on my wrist  It's pretty inconsistent though since some days I go to bed at 40% while last night I was at 10% when I got home from work. I didn't even use the watch really aside from checking notifications so I dunno
