Watch OS 10 Beta Thread

Rustyfan said:
This is a pain. I have 2 45mm S7 watches, 1 Wi-Fi and 1 Cellular. The Wi-Fi version charges like normal, up to 80% and then to 100% before I use it for bed. My cellular only charges to 80% with the little hook going into the center. When I touch the screen, it asks if I want to fully charge or dismiss. Touching fully charge doesn't do anything.

Until this is resolved hopefully in Beta 2 this week or next, I spend my day with a 80% charge S7 45mm cellular and end the day with 30% or so.

As a temp work around have you tried to turn off "Optimized Charge Limit" under Settings>Battery>BatteryHealth.

I am not seeing this issue on my AWU.
 
Was hoping for Beta 2 today. It's been two weeks and updates are usually on Tuesdays. Maybe Juneteenth pushes it until tomorrow.
 
I'm not a fan of setting up alerts in workouts anymore. In WatchOS 9 you could choose a running workout, and then choose your type (Open, Distance, Time) followed by setting up any alerts (heart rate, pace, etc) you want to choose. Now you have to set up your alerts in preferences before choosing your workout type, and once you choose your type of run there's nowhere to confirm which alerts are on. It leads to a lot of back and forth between different menus. I find it to be a significant frustration compared to setting up a run in WatchOS 9. I've submitted feedback, hopefully a solution can be found.

Anyone able to confirm what recent apps (double tap crown) looks like? Have they brought back app names/icons? Or can you pin favourite apps again? Thanks!
 
On beta 2 (series 8), and my heart rate complication won’t update on screen, unless I tap the complication. It’s still recording my heart rate in the background though. Same happened on beta 1 too.

Have tried on various watch faces and still the same.

Anyone else? Thanks.

Can you swipe left/right to switch watch faces, like on WatchOS9???
 
Beta 2 not showing up for me. Beta 10.0 installed fine a week or so ago, my iPhone has Beta 2, so not sure why its not coming up.

Did the Snoopy watch face have a second hand on the first beta? I'm just noticing now.
 
I’ve asked before, but, well anyways: any chance anyone with an Apple Fitness+ plan, can start a Fitness+ workout and then tell us if you can scroll to the other pages/views of various metrics on your watch? (in wOS9, you can see other views only if you’re doing a regular workout, the second you start a Fitness+ workout you can only see one screen of metrics on your watch?

Going on a lim and asking a second related question: can you edit the workout screens and metrics screens for each workout on the phone in the Watch.app (like wOS8) or must you only do it on the Watch (like in wOS9).

On Beta 2..
There is still only one screen when doing a Fitness+ workout and it appears that you cannot edit the screens in the watch for it.

Still only on the watch.
