Walkie-Talkie still tells me my girlfriend doesn't have an Apple Watch, so I can't connect to her. EDIT: We got it working. Yay? Endless Mike fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Sep 19, 2018 |

enojy posted:Does watchOS 5 do anything worth mentioning for anything older than the brand new watches? This is the update that allows homemade/custom watch faces, right? I can’t tell if you’re joking about homemade faces, but it’s been possible to make your own watch faces as apps and sideload them. The problem is that you can’t do normal watch face stuff like complications, and no notification/control center cause it’s just an app. watchOS 5 does have one particular change that would make them more usable though, cause you can access notification/control center from any app if you pause for a bit at the edge of the screen before swiping. Froist posted:Yeah, the Nike version has all the standard watchfaces plus some exclusive to the Nike edition, that regular watches can never download. I wish the Apple Store employee that I asked this exact question to last year knew this, but by the time I’d opened my regular one it wasn’t worth returning it just for some watchfaces. Small White Dragon posted:Sending text messages with Siri on the watch is weird. After showing me the message it has transcribed, there's a "Don't Send" button but no "Send" button?

I think the Nike launches later than the normal watches, so just keep that in mind. How long has Apple been doing seasonal colors for bands? Do they just rotate the same colors each season with a few new ones, or what?

mAlfunkti0n posted:Updated last night and WOW the series 3 feels a whole lot faster. I like they added a hiking workout as it seems to track calories better. Also if you leave the summary open instead of dismissing it the watch isn't dog slow when you go back and try to start another workout later. Sup Hiking budy. I am super glad they added Hiking as well, it feels way better imho.

Even this method is janky. I had my watch in the charger for a few hours and it kept trying to upload episodes. Then would stop and restart before completing

Xabi posted:Please help me, fellow posters, I'm desperate. Is it not possible to just make two watch faces, one with a gigantic fuckoff timer, and switch to it back and forth? I remember you used to be able to just swipe left/right to change watch faces but that might have been a long time ago.

I wish The new watch faces (smoke and metal) were customizable so they fill the whole screen and change to digital numerals. A round face and analogue time are stupid on a square watch like this. I guess they thought it gives you room for your complications.

I guess you could double-click the crown or other button (I dunno which) to switch between Activity and Stopwatch? Also maybe look into how Activity handles intervals now, it was a double-tap on the display but it wouldn't show how long the interval went on in watchOS 4, I think. No idea how it is in 5. edit: you should definitely be able to access the standalone stopwatch, yep. Pressing the crown in Activity should take you back to the watch face and from there you can start whatever.

A round face and analogue time are stupid on a square watch like this. I guess they thought it gives you room for your complications. I guess they’re trying to keep them away from the edge of the screen to avoid highlighting how big the bezels are on any of the 0-3 series watches? When they demoed the new faces on the 4 it definitely filled the whole screen, but on my 3 they’re constrained to the circle as you say. Looks stupid, but IMO those watchfaces wouldn’t be very attractive even on the 4 sooo..

Rolo posted:If I add a playlist to my watch then later add things to that playlist on my phone, will the changes automatically sync to my watch? I think the watch has to be on the charger before it syncs playlists. Also, watchOS 5 seems to be handing out exercise minutes and calories like candy, even without doing a workout.

Yeah, I do the same with a smart playlist. If you go into the watch app > Music on your phone, you can see it start to sync shortly after you put your watch on the charger.

I've convinced myself that LTE is a waste of money for me. Now to waffle over which color I want. Probably Space Gray again because I'm boring and all my other iStuff is space gray.

Pants Donkey posted:It's weird to me that Apple didn't add native sleep-tracking to the Series 4. Seems like a bog standard feature on every smartwatch/fitness tracker and, while paying three bucks for an app to do that isn't a huge ask, it does stick out on a $500 device. MarcusSA posted:Or maybe they feel it doesn't really work that well? If I tried to sleep with one I’d break it. Also I can’t sleep with socks or even most clothes on unless it’s absolutely frigid so the idea of sleeping with a watch on feels like sleeping with glasses.

There’s also the photos/live photos face that lets you upload your own images or gifs/live photos and use complications. There are lots of face repositories and tutorials for making them from stuff other than live photos available online. Also- how different is Volt from the ”flash” color that’s available on the standard versions? Pants Donkey posted:How long has Apple been doing seasonal colors for bands? Do they just rotate the same colors each season with a few new ones, or what? I think it depends on the band and the stock they have on hand. Apple kind of hides their “last season’s bands” section on their online store but it’s there, and you can see what’s available in person at your local Fruit Stand. And some colors stick around for a while in general stock even when they aren’t being seasonally featured (last fall’s orange and “flash” sport loops come to mind. I snapped them both up in November and they were still available in the spring after the line turned over and most of the fall colors were replaced and I picked up “flash light”- which is mostly the same neon green as “flash” but the dark accent is white, making it much brighter looking. IDK I have a thing for bright green). The black and seashell sport loops have been the same as far as I’m aware since last fall, and probably before that. Popular colors from one season will also often get a slight tweak for the next, like spring’s “Tahoe blue” getting replaced with the new “Cape Cod blue.” Third party sellers will often keep selling older stock until they run out, so if you know the specific name of a discontinued color you want, or search for something like “sport loop spring 2018 blue” there’s a good chance of still finding it. But basically, if you see a color you like before March/September buy it because it may not be available afterward. But also be prepared for the chance that Apple make a version of that color that you like even more.

bawfuls posted:Where is this? The only ones I can find look to be current (or is the new season not yet up?) New season went up after the keynote. In the iOS Apple Store app, if you scroll all the way to the bottom of the “watchbands” page there’s an “Explore previous seasons’ bands” button that links to a page where the available old bands can be seen (right now it seems to be mostly white, black, etc). Also if you select any band and go to the ‘more images/choose your size and whether to buy’ page you can choose between all available color options. No idea how it works on the website.

My red dot 🔴 is cycling between “now playing” and “phone.” I can’t think of a time when I’d want to initiate a call that way, but I keep hitting it when I want “now playing.” Any way to make the Phone icon go away? edit: bug maybe? Watch didn’t seemed to get the message that I had ended a FaceTime call with my kid 3 hours ago. Maybe because I ended it via Bluetooth? Making another FaceTime call made the icon go away. eddiewalker fucked around with this message at 01:47 on Sep 21, 2018 |
