    iPhone 12 MagSafe + Apple Watch Magnetic Puck Holder

    Anyone come across anything like these? Have seen a few on Etsy but they're separate units, not one holder for both chargers.

    Apple Watch and Sleep

    It's no surprise that the Apple Watch sleep tracking functionality isn't as good as other devices you put underneath your bed and that the watch isn't a convenient device for sleeptracking given the weak battery life. So, if this is the case, why is apple still trying to integrate sleep...

    Apple watch Series 6 blue tint colour shift at different viewing angles

    Firstly and to be clear I am not trolling or hating on Apple - god knows I own enough of their products 😲😁 With that being said my new Series 6 screen has the same blue tint at angles which the Series 4 had when I tried it at release, this is disappointing but apparently a 'feature' of the...

    Apple Watch 6 blood oxygen measurement said I had hypoxia when an oximeter showed that I was fine

    I wanted a new watch for exercise tracking, so I looked at Apple Watch 6. I was also excited about this SpO2 feature that the Apple Watch 6 has, even if I really don't need it. This feature is the main new feature that they are marketing their watch with. Just check out their web page and it is...

    Phone Call Issues on AW S4 on 7.01

    Apologies if this has a thread already, but is anyone else experiencing issues with their watch announcing calls after the WatchOS 7/7.01 update? I don't know if it's specific to the Series 4 Cellular model, as that is the one that I have. If you have experienced this, were you able to fix it...

    Mobility metrics

    I’m running iOS 14 GM on an iPhone 7 Plus and WatchOS 7 GM on a Series 4. I’m not getting any of the mobility metrics updated besides VO2 Máx and 6 minutes walk. Is there an age for the features to start working like EGC? Country? Any special setting for them to work? Thank you,

    Siri Watch Face forgotten?

    Basically the title. Has Apple abandoned making updates/changes to the Siri Watch Face? I feel like it had (has) so much potential. Just wondering if I’ve missing something and maybe they are still doing stuff for it. I didn’t see anything mentioned about it in their watchOS 7 info or the new...
