You may have some notifications set to “mirror my phone” and the vibrate on the phone is off for some reason.

Watch updates have always been really slow, but your phone won’t start an update unless your watch has at least 50% charge and is connected to a charger.

By the way, you should have roughly 4 GB free for music on the watch. Plus or minus, depending on what else you load, like apps and pictures. On an S1 at least, not sure if newer ones have more storage.

Yes. Edit: Technically the last time I did it without an Apple Music sub, I did have an iTunes Match sub, but I can’t imagine that mattered. WithoutTheFezOn fucked around with this message at 00:43 on Jan 23, 2018 |

No, wear whichever you like. In most cases, the watch only uses WiFi to connect to your iphone, and only if the BT connection cant work. This may help https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204562. There are some things the watch can do on WiFi/LTE that don’t require your phone, this page lists them https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205547 Can’t help you on the data plan advice.

I’d just call Apple Service. They’re generally pretty quick and fairly competent in my experience, and if it’s going to be a significant wait time they’ll give you the option to just have a rep call you back as soon as possible.

I’ve always been Just Fine about screen protectors on phones and iPads, but they’re really, really bad on the watch. The small screen looks really bad with a skin, and there’s way too much visible edge line per inch or whatever you want to call it — especially with a glass cover, look at the screen and notice how much of it is curved, and glass doesn’t bend. Seriously, pass on them. Can’t really think of any tricks, except if you have a workout going the music controls automatically are put on a screen to the right (I.e. swipe r-l from the workout screen to get Now Playing).

For the first, in the iPhone’s watch app look in General - wake screen and turn off “auto launch audio apps”.

The lag with the Now Playing app went away on my S1 after a recent update, but the workout thing is still there (if you don’t launch it for a day or so).

Some workout apps won’t up the HR frequency if you start the workout from your phone, not sure about that app in particular. But for cowofwar's problem, one possibility is ... if you don’t start a workout, the watch may not take the usual (I.e. every 5 or 6 minutes) HR reading if it thinks you’re moving a lot. It wasn’t that way originally, but I can’t remember when they changed it.

No, that’s why I said “pretty sure”. Could be. Personally I can’t remember ever seeing green unless I’m in a workout or explicitly taking a measurement via the pulse complication/app, but I don’t look at the bottom of my watch often.

Does the “digital touch” thing use a different haptic pattern than regular messages? I assume that’s what Eddie means by “distinctive”.

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 tried one for a day when I got my watch in 2015. It looked terrible so I ripped it off and said screw it, I’ve got AppleCare and better things to worry about. Battery messed up before the screen scratched.

fourwood posted:I’m assuming AirPods work well with the watch on the left hand? My current Bluetooth earbud things have the dangly controls and I assume antenna hanging off the right ear, and I guess my fatass goon body can block Bluetooth signals from my left wrist (especially outside). So walking/jogging/etc kinda sucks because music can cut in and out.

That’s most likely caused by a swollen battery, for info. Free with AppleCare.

Hey all my watch faces added a Now Playing icon where the notification dot goes. That’s cool, frees up a complication spot.

You can use reminders for a shopping checklist. You can even tick off items on your watch as you shop.

Don’t know about the original thing (maybe it was mirroring phone notifications and you got a proximity notification?) but to pay with the watch you press the side button twice to bring up your payment cards, then if you have multiple cards you can horizontally swipe between them. Edit: I may have read your post wrong. Once I bring up a card, the screen stays on for at least 30 seconds, movement doesn’t affect that, and I don’t remember changing any settings regarding payments or wallet.

No. Half the point of theater mode is keeping the screen dark. It’ll vibrate on alarm, though. E: and for what it’s worth, my S1 uses about 15% on an eight hour “overnight” if I wear it while sleeping.

There is a Now Playing complication, but it’s a long one. Requires a whole top/bottom edge, not just a corner. As in, it’ll fit on the Utility face, but not Simple.

It is. My low effort compromise is to have two watch faces installed and swipe between them for the complication I need.

That happened to quite a few S0 watches because the battery swelled up. Happened to mine, even though it didn’t look obvious to me the guy at the Apple store took one look at it edge on and said “yep, swollen battery”. I think they extended the warranty to cover that defect for three years or something, but I can’t remember when.
