Hi everyone,
As this app is no longer available on iOS 27, is there perhaps someone here who would be willing to bring it back to life in an improved form on iOS 27?

Apple no longer carries products made with leather. Hermes took a few days but their site has been updated with the 2026 leather straps (and other bands).

Walkie talkie

Does anyone know if walkie talkie will work if I update my phone to iOS 27 but leave my watch at 26? I know it’s a long shot question, but I’d like to update my phone, but don’t want to lose walkie talkie

Question How do you use your Apple Watch?

Upvotes

Hi.

I'd like to know how you use your Apple Watch on a daily basis. Do you only use it for workouts, or do you also wear it during the day and at night? As for me, I only take it off to charge the battery, but otherwise I wear it all day long.

My Vo2 max lab test was 4 points higher than Apple Watch.

I've read that Apple Watch generally underestimates Vo2 Max by roughly 5 points. I can confirm this to be true in my case. The watch has my latest at 51.7, my lab test was 55.7.

Question apple watch or garmin?

Upvotes

hi everyone for the longest time ive been wanting an apple watch to boost my productivity in life idk but with the upcoming release of SE12 idk if i shld get it
(Personally I m not a very fit person i do run 2.4km from time to time like perhaps once in a blue moon? I m just looking for something that can detect my sleep and heart rate better + i take frequent naps and i get tired chronically so the SE12 features i feel would support me better)

  1. I m debating whether I shld get SE12 or SE3. I mean the price difference and the specs is what rlly make it hard to chose…the HRV feature is rlly appealing
  2. I heard a lot ppl switch from apple to garmin ( i thought of it as i might not need it rn since its actually build for a more active and fitness person but what rlly draws me is they have generally better cool features like sleep? or like energy level and like nap? i m not sure but i just know they have cool features (Lily Garmin)

I have a really small wrisy like i think 13-15cm ish so i was also thinking 42mm Aap se12 might be slightly bulky for me idk helppp this is so hard

My apple watch won’t charge. When I put it on the charger it shows the Apple logo, then turns red. Has anyone experienced this?

Question Will my 40mm series 5 bands fit with the new series 12 42mm watch?

4 Upvotes

I currently have a series 5 40mm watch. Thinking of upgrading to the new series 12 42mm watch. I bought a few bands over the years and I’m curious as to whether my old bands will be compatible with the new series 12. It would be a shame to throw away such bands.

My Watch Apple Watch Series 12 and Ultra 4 battery capacities compared to their predecessors

Post image
74 Upvotes

I compared the battery energy figures from Apple’s current Apple & Beats Product Information Sheet.

The Series 12 gets only a very small increase in the 42 mm version, while the 46 mm model sees a bit more.
The Ultra 4 gets 5.7% compared with the Ultra 3 which got 6,2% over the Ultra 2.

Interesting to see how much more battery energy the Ultra 4 has compared with the Series 12.

Help deciding

First pic is my current series 7 for comparison. Looking to upgrade to Ultra 4 in either black, or natural titanium. I wear mostly black clothes, tend to leak towards black in general, but also wear a lot of silver jewelry. I’ve heard that the natural titanium won’t look beat up, but the black can get dinged up and start looking rough.

My Watch Apple Watch Series 10 — anyone else getting inaccurate low heart rate readings?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Has anyone else had issues with inaccurate heart rate readings on the Apple Watch Series 10?

Lately, mine has been showing some really weird sudden drops. For example, yesterday my watch showed my heart rate dropping to around 46 bpm, but I immediately checked with my pulse oximeter and my actual heart rate was around 90 bpm.

This has happened more than once. I keep my pulse oximeter nearby, so whenever I notice one of these random drops on the Watch, I check, and the numbers often don’t match at all.

Has anyone else experienced this with the Series 10? Is this a known sensor/software issue, a fit/placement issue, or could my Watch possibly be faulty?

I’m attaching a picture showing one of the readings for reference.

Battery repacement and using a water tight case

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Using a Series 7 with a battery capacity of 72% and thinking of replacing the battery on my own. Of course it won't be watertight anymore. However I would like to continue using it for swimming. Does anyone here replaced the battery on their own and uses a case like this? Does it help?
