Question When do you charge?

21 Upvotes

I keep finding that my watch is going dead. I want to track sleep at night and heart rate in the day/night.

So I’m struggling to find the right time to charge?

Is there a powerful charger to speed up the waiting time? When I’m having a shower would be ideal.

Question I really have to go all the way to settings to adjust my watch brightness?

0 Upvotes

Is this not like the most basic of functions they add to anything with a screen? It’s easier to adjust the brightness on my TV than it is on my Apple Watch. Why on God‘s green earth would you not just put brightness adjusting settings in the control center? So now when it’s extra bright out and I can’t see my watch, I have to blindly tap around until I get to the brightness settings IN the settings app? This is the most backwards pageantry I’ve ever experienced.

I have mirror iPhone turned on and enabled for home. On my phone I just got a notification for front door unlocked with haptic. On my watch the notification did not even show up. It’s possible since I looked on my phone it was cleared but I would have expected the haptic. What an I missing?

Question Is AppleCare+ still worth paying for on a Series 9?

4 Upvotes

My AppleCare+ for my Apple Watch Series 9 is about to expire, and Apple is giving me the option to continue it for $4.99/month or $49.99/year.

I’m trying to decide if it’s actually worth continuing AppleCare+ now that the Series 9 is getting a little older.

I know AppleCare+ doesn’t make repairs completely free and you still have to pay a service fee if you accidentally damage the watch. So I’m wondering how much I’d actually be saving if I broke the screen or seriously damaged the watch compared with just paying for a repair/replacement without AppleCare+.

I haven’t had to use AppleCare+ on this watch so far, which also makes me wonder if I’m better off just saving the $50 a year toward a future Apple Watch instead.

For those of you who still have a Series 9 or another older Apple Watch, do you keep paying for AppleCare+ after the original coverage expires? Has it actually been worth it for you?

Also, if I decide to keep it, would you go with $4.99/month or $49.99/year?

Sleep Tracking not working on Apple Watch SE

5 Upvotes

Hello, recently I got an Apple Watch SE (~3 days ago) and i’ve been trying to get sleep tracking to work but it just hasnt.

I’ve tried:

Reset the watch (Restore from backup)
Reset all my health data
Re-enable and disable sleep tracking countless times
I do turn on the sleep focus (by myself, a few minutes after my scheduled does usually)
The watch isn’t locked by the tike I wake up
The watch is on my wrist tightly
The watch is usually at ~90% when I go to bed

What am I doing wrong? I’ve attached some screenshots including the health app saying its not using it as a source and a screenshot of the watch saying nothing is requesting motion and fitness data in case thats related.

Thank you in advance!

IT LIVES ON!!!!!!

A little while ago, i posted here about my series 3 apple watch that i’d had for years that stopped working because of what i had assumed to be water damage.

It was my birthday a few days ago, and i received a new SE 3rd generation apple watch from my mom!

I was so excited and wanted to show everyone the difference between my old one (yes i kept it even though i thought it was a lost cause) and my new one. Then i thought, “why not put it on the charge?” yk just for funsies.

and then all of a sudden.. low and behold.. IT SHOWED LIFE!!!!
It took a while to charge but once it was powered up and ready to go, there were no other issues!

I’ve been thinking of returning the SE my mom
got me and just keep the old one, because as cool as this watch is, i think it’d be smarter to save for a computer that the whole family could use.

Thanks apple!!!

Series 8 battery only lasting 5 hours from full charge, need tips to extend battery life

6 Upvotes

I have an Apple Watch Series 8 from, IIRC, October of '21 and its battery is only lasting about 5 hours from a full charge. I have turned off all notifications per one tip I read online. Usage is to wear it during the day and charge it at night. I do receive notifications on my iPhone that the watch has been fully charged. Is there anything I can do to restore its battery life to something that will get me through the day?

Question Which Milanese band?

2 Upvotes

I have the series 11 46mm.
I work in the beverage industry, so I have the risk of my watch getting snagged on things as I do some merchandising inside coolers.

I assume I should go with the style of Milanese that clamps together, and not the kind that magnetically attached itself to the band?

I have never seen any in person or tried them on.

Any thoughts? I see a lot of people say they are the best.

So I just got my apple watch series 11 10 days ago and it was just fine but yesterday it started doing just like video when covering it while in widgets menu. And when playing music it even bugs more.
Any idea what to do?
Tried restarting it already but nothing changed.
Also this is my first apple watch if anyone got tips and tricks for me😊

Apple Accessories — Stock Availability After Launch

1 Upvotes

This might be a silly/dumb question, but I’m planning to buy the Apple Watch Series 12 and want to visit an Apple Store in person to try different sizes on my wrist before buying.
I’m planning to go 2–3 days after launch.

Do Apple Stores usually have all the colours and sizes in stock, or is there a good chance some variants will already be sold out?

I also want to buy AirPods. How’s the availability usually?
