    Apps Some help with Runkeeper IOS app please!

    Three questions about the Runkeeper Watch app and using it without the iPhone: 1) Do you need the iPhone to receive a cadence report? I ran today using only the watch and no cadence was reported although I get it when I run with the phone. 2) Why do I get no proper interval cues/prompts when...

    Apple Watch, Airpods and Nike Run Club app

    I have the apple watch series 4. I use my apple watch to run, specifically the NRC app. I have noticed that when using the app on the phone it's connected to my airpods and it gives me feedback on my run. I would like to know how to use it on the apple watch, while streaming music on my iphone...

    AW Series 2 smashed... AW Series 4 worth it? Alternatives?

    My trusty AW2 (in Cocoa, which I loved, but is no longer available) dropped yesterday. Onto a hard ceramic floor. Face down. Watch face glass is completely shattered... thought it would be a little tougher than that... :( I prefer to pick one up locally if I could, but not sure about AW4...

    Best Bands for SSG?

    I’m trying to figure out which bands will look nice with the stainless steel gold. A lot of the bands available still only have stainless steel and black lugs which makes me uncertain if it would pair well with gold. The only colors I’m sure about are the horizon blue and red sports band from...

    Apple Watch Series 4 Sleep Tracking

    After talking to a few members about sleep tracking apps, settings, and battery life, I decided to pay attention to my settings and battery life and keep track of it last night when sleep tracking. Usually I charge my watch in the morning after sleep tracking, but last night I charged it before...

    Too Many Podcasts Are Downloading

    Having a difficult time figuring out how to control the number of podcasts the AW is downloading. On my iPhone, podcast settings limit downloads of each podcast to the five most recent. However, the watch downloads every available podcast, months worth of multiple podcasts using 7.2 gb of space...

    Anyone’s SS S4 sapphire feel a little concave?

    Like the border of the sapphire all around is raised a tiny bit and it sinks down a tiny bit in the center?

    Just move along. If you have a display issue on your S4 then “Apple Watch is not for you”

    Edit: I changed the thread title to reflect the commenters’ advice for me and maybe others who are bothered by the screen uniformity issue... ————— I’m sorry to start another thread here and appreciate everyone’s prior comments on this. However, I’d like to limit this discussion to those who...

    Apple Watch 4 Doesn’t Support AirPlay

    I was surprised and disappointed to learn that the Apple Watch Series 4 doesn’t support AirPlay! You can use the watch to remotely control a iPhone and connect to AirPlay via the phone, but when playing music directly from the watch it only supports Bluetooth and not AirPlay. Any idea why...

    Request: Show me the worst possible scratch ever on a Space Black Apple Watch.

    Ive heard the claims that SBSS is indestructible. S0s and S1s still “look like the day they were purchased.” 700 days of 23 hour use and not a mark on them. Are the rumors true? Is a scratch on a SBSS like the Bigfoot of the tech world? Surely the sheen of the SBSS must fade or something? (I am...

    AppleCare in full or monthly?

    So I get that AppleCare+ on the S4 is $79 in full for 24 months or $3.99/month for up to 24 months (adds up to $96 over 24 months). Paid-in-full is the better deal, right? You can cancel the paid-in-full at anytime for a prorated refund. Am I missing something?

    Series 4 Defects Thread

    I’ve had 3 Apple Watch Series 4s with three different issues and have a 4th on the way. If that one has an issue, I think I’ll either have to skip this generation, resort to a Series 3, or wait until they address these issues. What issue(s) are you experiencing? Are your replacements/exchanges...

    Watch setup for a kid?

    Hi all! We just replaced my wife’s 38mm series 3 with a 4. Our goal is for our ten year old to use the 3 when he’s out in the neighborhood so we can call, text him, etc. There seems to be some hypothetical limitations that I’m not sure exist or not, so I’m hoping for some clarity and...

    Get the Apple Watch Series 4 Earlier than Apple or Best Buy in US

    I'm not sure for how long it'll be there in stock but if you act quick, you'd be able to snag one. This is for those who don't have the option to go to an Apple Store or anything that such also save some money as well. You get the free extra watch faces if you were planning to get an aluminum...
