    Hi, I wonder if I need to reset my Apple Watch to factory settings before connecting to new iPhone. I made backup of my old iPhone. Do I need really do that? Regards, J.

    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...

My current one has a cracked screen and has markings on the casing, so I don’t like the idea of getting the aluminium one again. I’m also looking at getting the...

    Does Anyone Else Have to Water Eject 5+ Times?

    I get really sweaty when I workout so I always thoroughly rinse off my AW when I’m done. After I dry it off I eject the water and the speaker still sounds awful. It takes a good 5+ times to get all of the water out. Just curious if it’s like this for anyone else. I’m assuming it’s supposed to...

At this point, it pretty much seems to be a given that Apple will update its Apple Watch lineup this fall with the addition...
