    Series 6 - redesign?

    As many are pinning their hopes and dreams on a redesigned iphone in 2020, do we think the Series 6 Apple watch will get the same treatment? So if the iphone is getting a boxy flat edge design, could the Apple watch follow the same design language? Could we see a redesigned watch strap as...

    watchOS 6 / iOS 13 - Int'l Women's Day Activity Award craziness

    The new updates seem to give the 2018 International Women's Day award an identity crisis! It's now hollow in the "all" view, and has new purple confetti in the "close up" view. Hmmm....

    Watch cellular does not ring on phone call if iphone is out of data network/ wifi coverage

    Apple watch cellular does not ring on a phone call if the iphone is out of data network or wifi coverage (assuming bluetooth on iphone is off). The watch rings only if the phone is on wifi or cellular data. Is it correct behaviour?

    Series 5 - How Much Music Storage Space?

    Can anyone advise on how much music storage space there is on the series 5? I had a series 2 and you could only save up to 2GB of music directly on the watch. It is my understanding that the series 3 and 4 had the same limitation, even on the 16GB models, though I may be mistaken here? Has this...

    watchos 6.0 bugs or feature?..

    1. Why change the design of the ring icon? Closed rings look like open rings. @Apple #CloseMyRings 2. Mickey Mouse does not say time when touched. Reboot the watch and Apple's instruction did not help. #MickeyTalk! #watchos6bugs

    I sent feedback to Apple (as I’m sure many others did) when I bought my Series 4 less than 5 months ago suggesting that we should be able to choose exactly the Watch we want. This is now available online with Apple Watch Studio. At the time I’d have gone for the Silver Aluminium case but...

    Brand new Apple Watch 3 will not pair with ANY iPhone

    So ... my step daughter today got an Apple Watch 3 for her birthday - but the setup process kept blowing up when attempting to update the watch. It would "pair" then ask for LEFT or RIGHT preference. As soon as you selected one or the other, it would say "could not pair" and it would unpair...
