I'm having a weird issue with my watch and its not a huge deal just a weird one.

So I used to get all of my award notifications on Sunday (weekly stand ect.) but recently in the past month I've been getting them on Saturday. I mean its not a huge deal just kinda weird.

The only thing I can think of that is doing it is because I spent 2 weeks in Europe recently and their calendar is Sat-Sat (or some poo poo) so the end of the "week" is Saturday. Does anyone else get this? Like I said not a huge deal just weird.

Should be, it's not. Contacted Apple support and they said they have a few reports and it's being escalated. Maybe I can score a free pride band out of this.

It does have a nice look but the animation is kinda lovely. You tap the screen and it goes blank and redraws. Some kind of guitar strumming interaction would have made it kicking rad.

Huh? Where in Europe did you visit? I moved to Switzerland two years ago and my awards never changed. (Also Europe’s calendars are Monday - Sunday)

Bummer. Hope it's resolved for you. As a cis het white guy it's not something I'm comfortable using (in the sense that I don't want to invade things intended for Extremely Not Me), but I am very happy Apple is embracing it.

Is there a site that shows new Apple Watch apps? The App Store is pretty lovely at showing me what is available and no way to see new stuff.

Although my watch iOS is up to date, I hadn’t realised there was a new phone update so I’m giving that a go to see if it fixes.


edit: updating my phone OS has worked and I can now select the background.

I always get my weekly results first thing on Monday morning. No idea why yours would have changed to Saturday but I don’t think it’s anything to do with visiting here.

Getting conflicting reports about WatchOS 5. Are S0 watches the only ones not getting the upgrade, or does that include S1 watches as well?

My beaten-up old Pebble is finally giving up the ghost (just in time for the server shut down!) and I'm eyeing up an Apple Watch as a replacement since most of the wearables I've seen are around the same price. Is the Series 1 still worth a poo poo, or should I just go straight for the Series 3? Keep in mind I'd mostly be using it for checking notifications, controlling my music/podcasts/etc on my phone while walking and as a timer in the kitchen without having to fish my phone out every five minutes.

Don't buy anything but the series 3 at this point.

Or hold off until fall if you can because people are thinking a new revision is due.

Def series 3. The older arches will probably get more support than the first gen Apple Watch that is now losing support, but the 3 is worth the difference speed wise alone.

No way to know until fall, but The Apple Watch cycle so far has been longer than the iPhone cycle. Every 1.5 to 2 years. I don’t know what would differentiate the next Apple Watch at this point.

Was an article a few weeks ago about the potential for a bigger screen, same physical size. So basically a smaller bevel watch.

The sample size is small, but MacRumors has the average time as 445 days, with it being 371 days between Series 1/2 and 3 launches. I would be more surprised with there not being a new Watch this fall than if there is.

They’re also speculating about some significant revisions. Maybe a circular face and technology built into the strap such as a camera and blood pressure monitor.

Uhhh if you sync music to your S2 a lot, maybe hold off on the iOS 12 beta, it's taking WAYYYYYY longer to send songs to the watch now.

Now everyone's rumoring the series 4 won't have physical buttons. It's all haptics baby.

This confirms series 3 is the best because a capacitive crown sounds terrible.

Anyone else had the bug with workout app freezing and needing to be restarted before every workout come back?

Oh no
Not completely freezing but if I don’t use it for a few days then run it it stops at the “pick a workout” step for I’d say 6-10 seconds.

I would be skeptical on the crown having good haptic feedback for scrolling , otherwise agreed.

Rumours are saying the crown still spins, but the button itself is haptic only.
