How can I do that?
Hi there! I hope someone will give a hand with specific issue- right after update I find out that Apple Maps and Weather apps aren’t detecting geolocation. It’s 9th series watch. Case is really frustrating cuz I already checked privacy settings and any available permissions. Also made system reset. No clue what to perform. Any suggestions please ?🙏
hello, I installed WatchOs 11, the public beta.
after making a few workouts, indicating my effort, and some nights to track my vitals, i accessed my "training load".
the fact is that i don't understand anything about how to interpret it. what's the difference between "all" and "entire day"? why is there some specific sports that are showing their own training load?
i guess that when the percentage is negative, it means that i can push it up, and when it becomes positive, i need some rest. but i'm still confused. can someone give me more info please? thanks! :)
I wanted to ask in the watchOS beta subreddit but it’s not beta specific. Does anyone know a fix for this?
Hi, I’m looking for the best bang for buck apple watch on ebay, and i’ve seen that the series 6 is the oldest you should buy since it has the most important features and more importantly, is still supported in the newest watchOS updates.
I’m mainly just going to use it for the gps for golf to tell me distances to the pin.
But before i bought a series 6, i wanted to make sure it would last a while through the newest watchOS updates.
Hi all,
I used to have HR zones as an option - i had 3 options if i swiped down on my screen or used my digital crown. One was the usual 3 circles, second was the elapsed time and distance, and third was HR zones. HR zones are gone and I don't know how to get them back or turn them on. Tried a variety of tips I've read on here and on apple forums. May need to bite bullet and call AC+
Just hoping someone on here has a quick solution. Thanks!
Hello I want to buy a second hand Apple Watch and connect it with my iPhone 7 Plus runing ios 15. If the old user have the Watch updated in watchOS 10 am I able to connect it on my iPhone 7 Plus ???
Is it worth it to update? Or the battery life worse on watchOS 10 compared to 9?
My wrist temperature monitoring suddenly stopped working on my AWU2 with developer beta 2 installed. Anyone else having similar problems?
For those with OS 11, is the control panel gone? It is no longer there when I swipe upwards. Thanks.
Check in notification
Hi everybody
Does everybody knows if we can get check-in notification automatically?
I mean, is it possible to get a reminder to send a check in when we leave the office or when we leave at home ?
It seems to work on the Apple Watch latest beta better I never see this function on the iPhone
Did I miss something?
Thanks for your help
Hi all, i am curious about the whoop but don’t want to give up my watch for wear two devices. So basically I try to get as close as possible to the current whoop experience but with the watch.
The feature that interests me the most, at least from reading, is the journal. If I get this correctly you log that yesterday you took e.g., XYmg of a vitamin or something and then after a few days it tells you whether he detects positive benefits in your overall health data. Let’s not talk about causality or correlation, but I would like some more active feedback to what I am doing.
I have seen the new app for ios18 but from what I heard is just states (again) general trends, not linked to specific changes or input in your life.
What are your thoughts? Any recommendations?
I am doing cycling trainings. My initial understanding was that I have to set the training load manually until the automation will take over after some time. But I guess this is not how it works. I cannot see an automatically calculated load level numbers. But I can see a chart with some historic peaks for cycling. I guess. Not sure how to interprete this. Resulting I have 2 questions.
How and when does the automatic calculation works for cycling? I think I didn’t get the details
How can I delete the manually updated training load I set. I cannot find a way to delete it so that it can be calculated automatically
Regards and Thanks
hello, i have a question. so, i have an iPhone 15 Pro Max running iOS17.2 out of the box and i have no plan on updating it.
now, if i bought an apple watch and let’s say its running watchOS 10.4 or the latest 10.5 will i still be able to pair it with my iPhone running iOS 17.2?
thanks in advance
Trying to update to watchos dev beta 11, but all the watch app says is "watchOS 10.5: Your apple watch is up to date with all the latest bug fixes...". However, I have selected the watchOS 11 Developer beta profile in the settings, and it still isn't updating. Any tips?
It's in the WWDC video.
Hi all!
Since watchOS 10.5 update, I have been having crazy battery issues. Anyone else having the same?
Apple Watch Ultra 2. Charged to 65% this morning until 7am. And it’s 12:20pm and watch battery is down to 10%.
Last week it did same where from 100% it went down to 20% in 6 hours.
Hardware diagnostic says all good, so software reset?
Thank you!
Hello All,
I'm very new to app development, and have adopted it as a hobby. I've started a little watchOS app that retrieves HealthKit data and displays it in several ways in the app. I'm looking to try to add complications, but I can't really find a good guide on how to do this. Does anyone know a free online guide that can help a relatively new swift developer do this?
Thanks,
I recently purchased my first 45mm Apple Watch Series 9 GPS for the main purpose for fitness/health. I now have high cholesterol and low testosterone and want to improve this naturally with diet and exercise.
What are benefits or what can I do with the Apple Watch to assist with this goal? For example, when I walk, how do I know if I am in Zone 2 immediately? Where would I find this on the watch (Zone 2)? Is Zone 2 that is Automatic in the Apple Watch settings correct/accurate or should it be Manual, since this is the Zone I would need to be in for fat burning optimally?
How can I use the Apple Watch for working out / lifting weights optimally?
I also usually use My Fitness Pal for meal calorie tracking. Are there any other apps or suggestions I should use? Anything else I should know?
Any insights, recommendations, or advice?
Thanks!
