I can't find where I see the miles I've walked for the week, only shows me current day? Anyone know the steps to see weekly stats?

I'm convinced that this new button assignment is either temporary or a test. Especially the side button under the crown, it just a useless waste of a button. Does anyone access the control panel that often that they need a hot button for it?
I use this menu with buttons and battery percentage a lot and in watchOS 9 when you are in app you need to hold finger and then pull up. Now with side button it's easier to access. I starting to used to it.
What I don't use is that new screen when i scroll with crown. It's useless.

Battery drain on my ultra so far is pretty good for me, only a little worse than os 9. In 13 hours I dropped from 100% to 81% and sleep tracking was on for 6hrs of that.
I charged to 100% yesterday at 20:45. At 4:00 morning I had 88% battery (so 12% lost during sleep). 110 minutes run, I lost 26% of battery. I disabled AOD and now in 14:14 I have 43% battery.
That is definitely higher battery drain.

I think the crown scroll is useless too and hopefully they replace it. In terms of App Dock vs. Control Panel on the side button, I would venture to guess most people used it a ton for the dock, much more often than one used to swipe up from the bottom for the control panel.

Is double clicking the Digital Crown just like swiping up to the App Switcher on iOS? Does it list all the apps you’ve ever opened or is it a short list of the most recently opened apps, and is if so what’s the number limit on the apps shown?

Very similar, but it is a little buggy in the beta1. Sometimes a lot of apps show up and sometimes on one or two when many are open.

You might be right but I don’t think so because this change of the button behaviour is explained as a new feature on WatchOS 10 website page.

Ahhh....you're right about that. Well, maybe they will make it customizable at the very least, like the orange button on the ultra.

And for now, it seems to be stuck at the top of the list unfortunately. Also, is there any other way to reorder the list other than adding to the top (under tips) with the + sign?
You can remove it so easily , just delete Tips app on the watch and restart it.

They talked about it a couple of times in the keynote - kind of gives me the idea that they are fixed on it

Yeah, I am starting to accept that after I viewed the WatchOS 10 "feature" page. Crossing fingers for some option to customize the button from defualt.

Either I am on an island by myself as someone who rarely accesses control panel during my 4 years of ownership or Apple pulled this out of there ass thinking that people want this.

I too was frustrated about not being able to remove the tips either, Grrrrrr

Other thing I’ve noticed is swiping between faces doesn’t work. You seem to have to long press to edit and then swipe across. Annoying.
Wow! If that is a new feature I’d hate it! I have 3 watchfaces with all the complications I use, and I swipe to get to the complication I’m looking for. 🤞🏼Fix it Apple🤞🏼
 
Can anyone help me understand the sunrise/sunset compilation. It used to just show the time and now I am not sure what to make of the numbers?!

According to the Apple weather app on my phone sunset is at 8:36pm today. That doesn’t line up with either of the times displayed in the complication.

I have double checked time zone on my phone and kind of at a loss!

Thanks for the confirmation on the unremovable Tip Widgets. It's Beta 1, so not bitching, just wondering if I was the only one.

Yeah, so far so good enough as far as WatchOS 10 and iOS17 beta 1's.
Why not report it as a bug? That's one of the points of beta testing.

For the complication that you're showing...the first set of numbers is the time the sun will set, 10:27PM. The set of numbers next to it is the hours until sunset, which shows apps. 12 hours and some minutes.

Others have stated and I have confirmed that the time that the complication shows is off...mine shows Cupertino sunset (+1 hr behind me) but my sunrise/sunset app shows the correct time.
 
In watchOS 9 the watch captured sleep stages only during the duration between bedtime and wake-up. If I go to sleep during the day time outside the bedtime, even while sleep focus is activated at that time, the watch did not capture sleep stages.
Has this behaviour changed in watchOS 10.

That's what mine looks like. It should the time of sunset or sunrise and how many hours and minutes are left before that occurs.

Although I cannot speak as to its time accuracy. Maybe double check that you have selected the correct zone or area in your weather. I will say I don't know anywhere in the mainland US that sunset is that late.
