    Will health insurance cover Series 4 as a medical device?

    Any thoughts on this?

    Will the S4 have improved LTE performance?

    Even with solid reception (3 or 4 little green dots), LTE was spotty on my S3 when away from my iPhone. I often had trouble sending messages and Siri would just time out a lot of the time. Phone calls were fine when they connected, but occasionally wouldn't even dial out. Does anyone think we...

    Apple Watch Battery Drain

    Hello Everyone, My first post on the MacRumors Forums is going to be about my Apple Watch Series 1. I got an Apple Watch in June of last year (2017), and it worked fine, but kept draining my iPhone 5s. The battery life was fine on the iWatch until I upgraded to a iPhone 6s on Black Friday 2017...

    Other Are you excited about AirPower? Here's why I am excited.

    I am very excited about the AirPower because of one aspect that I think has been over looked: the ability to charge multiple devices without having to align them on the pad. Other multi device Qi chargers require you to place the devices on a specific space because every device needs to be...

    Apple discontinuing Leather Loop??

    I went to two different Apple Stores yesterday, and neither of them had the Leather Loop in stock (and there was no stock at surrounding stores either.) Is the Leather Loop being discontinued?

    watchOS 5

    Now that we’ve had some time to live with watchOS 4, what’s missing? What has Apple got right and should stay going forward? According to trends that we’ve been seeing on iOS, what do you think is going to make it into watchOS 5 due to be announced at WWDC next Summer? After four tries, Apple...

    Apple Watch As My Primary Device

    Jony Ive was recently quoted when asked what he regrets about the iPhone is "Perhaps its constant use." I've wondered about that and how to return to living in the real world while still having access to the power of the internet with me wherever I go. The answer is the Apple Watch. Unlike an...

    Can you download music OTA for offline with 4.1?

    Transferring music from the phone to the watch is just stupidly, painfully slow. With 4.1 and the option to stream music, can you also — with an appropriate AM account of course — choose to download music? I’d hazard to guess that downloading over LTE would be way, way faster than the...

    Can I share my location with a loved one using AW3 LTE?

    So just like what the title say, can I share my location to my husband using an Apple Watch series 3 LTE if I don’t have my phone with me? We always share our location through our iPhones to one another so this one would be so useful.

My question is, can I purchase the watch with LTE but then not activate...

    Install watchOS 3 on new Watch?

    I am planning to buy an Apple Watch Series 3 but wouldn't like to update to iOS 11 on my iPhone 6 and I think watchOS 4 doesn't bring much to worth updating either. I've never had an Apple Watch so I don't know if it's possible to install an older software on a new device. So Apple Watch users...

    HR Resting rate - Series 0

    I found this: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204666 "Apple Watch measures your heart rate throughout the day when you’re still, and periodically when you’re walking (Apple Watch Series 1 or later)." So, the series 0 used to do this with OS3 but not any more with os4. If you have a series 0...

    Hello everyone, I have been searching around this forum but I cannot find a clear answer to my question. I'm planning to get the new Apple Watch series 3 (with cellular) when it launches. Unfortunately, Bell and Telus are currently the carrier for the cell network and I am not planning to...

    Apple watch notification vibration pattern issue

    Hey everyone, so I'm having a problem with my Apple watch series 1 vibration everytime I get a notification. For sake of example, I'm gunna use the letter V to simulate the vibration pattern. Normally, when I get a notification, the vibration would go, "vvvvv vv vv" so one long vibration and...

    Saddle Brown CB Falling Apart

    I've had the Saddle Brown Classic buckle since it was introduced and it quickly became my favourite watch strap. But recently it has just started falling apart. Leather is splitting and literally falling apart. I wouldn't say I'm overly rough on it, just normal everyday use. I have a sport...
