Love your video – very honest and that’s appreciated. Your video also triggered an idea I have for Apple: allow some apps to be scheduled not work at specific times during the day to help limit habitual (and mindless) viewing of addictive apps like IG & TikTok.

That is possible in the screentime and focus app, you can set some apps to appear only at certain focus modes and how many hours to use, ive set a limit of 1 hour to instagram and Twitter, thank god i dont use tiktok

Waste of money. I finally got one 6 months ago and regret it. For the functions I actually use it for were available in a cheap Fitbit w battery life that last over a wk. I hate how you need to daily charge the Apple Watch.

As for texting, try using the voice to text feature, if the Apple watch has that.

Overall, Apple Watch is a great addition to many people’s lives. If you don’t care about the features, cost is barrier or don’t want another device to manage/charge, then yeah skip the Watch. But if you’re interested in ANY of the conveniences it affords you, then having Apple Watch is a must. I think the ecosystem perks are well worth it, especially if in a rare case your iPhone is lost/stolen, or you’re in an emergency, having a tightly connected device would be clutch.

The Apple Watch can be a fantastic tool for limiting time on your phone. Just don’t install all of your unnecessary apps on there. In my opinion, the additional benefits to the Apple Watch are the health fall detection crash detection features.

The activity notification is both a blessing and a curse. The expectations of fitness every single day isn’t healthy for most people. If I go run a marathon today, I shouldn’t have to work out 30 minutes the next day. there should be some sort of cumulative weekly exercise goal otherwise you’re encouraging people to develop unhealthy habits, and risk the possibility of injury, just my opinion.
@elb06260

A simple 30 min walk will close the exercise ring – it is about having a healthy habit of doing something active for 30 min every day – it does not have to be stressful on your body – walking is something that can and should be done daily – while running, lifting weights etc. are not meant to be done daily. It is trying to encourage healthy habits.

I dumped my Apple Watch Ultra after 12 months and went back to a mechanical wristwatch. It was good at first, but with every update it seemed to have more alerts and the user interface became more complicated.
I miss having the weather and my calendar, but that’s it. The other features just felt like noise.

Apple Watch sleep tracking sucks generally. Even in a sleep focus, it doesn’t record sleep tracking. The biggest fail is when it stops tracking after the alarm goes off.
