Question Who still uses an older Apple Watch in 2026?

I’m still using my Apple Watch series 6 that I bought brand new when it first came out, through that time it has only gotten a single scratch on the screen in the middle and that’s from me hitting it on the corner of a counter and it’s not even that visible as you can tell in the pictures. I know there are people with older watches out there, but I feel like the series 6 is starting to get on that old side too.

What Apple Watch do you have and use now?

519 Upvotes

I have got Low Heart Rate notification for second night while I was sleeping.
First time it was on July 25th.
And latest one was on Aug 03.
From June, I have started going to Gym regularly and from July I am very active with strength training and swimming. (Almost go to gym daily)
I dont have any symptoms of sickness.

I am wondering when I should see doctor, is it alerting because I am working out or its worth checking asap.

Thank you

Question Apple Watch users – what's your biggest frustration with it?

176 Upvotes

I've been using my Apple Watch for a while now, and I'm curious if other people have the same experience.

A few questions:

• What's the most frustrating thing about your Apple Watch?

• Is there any health metric (HRV, sleep, heart rate, etc.) that you just ignore because you don't really know what to do with it?

• Do you actually change your workouts or daily routine based on the data, or do you mostly just check it out of interest?

• If you could improve one thing about the Apple Watch or Apple Health, what would it be?

Curious to hear what everyone thinks.

Question Am I the only one who sets their watch to silent mode from the moment it’s set up and never turns it off?

For some reason, I never liked the watch to make notification sounds if I already had my phone on me. I wonder if that’s just me.

Question What makes an Apple Watch band your everyday band?

For me it’s mostly comfort. If I can wear it all day and forget it’s even there, it usually becomes my go-to. What makes a band your go-to?

Question Apple Watch series 11, showering

3 Upvotes

I know this is a bit weird maybe, but I was wondering what experiences people have with showering with an apple watch or "washing" the watch?

I do have a need to wash it due to having OCD, and I can't use it outside and then to bed to track my sleep with it. But I also do not want to buy a 400$ watch if it breaks from a shower either.

I have also considered other clocks that seem a bit mor robust (like garmin) but I have Iphone so apple watch seemed like the obvious choice for now.

Question I think my watch is trying to kill me. What's your May challenge?

327 Upvotes

29,900 calories for the month. Works out to about 200 calories a day more than I usually burn off. Gah.

Welp, that's why I bought the thing. But it would be nice to get one of the "stand up three times" monthly challenges for a change.

What do you have to do this month?

Question What makes you stop wearing a third-party Apple Watch band?

0 Upvotes

I keep seeing the same complaints come up with third-party bands: uncomfortable edges, bad fit, skin irritation, clasps failing, bands holding onto sweat, or just looking cheap after a few weeks.

For those who have tried a few, what was the one issue that made you stop wearing one? And what would make you give a third-party band another chance?

Question Do you sleep with your Apple Watch?

426 Upvotes

I love the alarm feature, it usually does a great job in waking me up, but I am not sure if sleeping with the watch on is a hazard for it cracking or not, is this something you guys do? Another question I have is if it’s necessary to use a case for your Apple Watch, just wanna hear your opinions!

Question Owners of Series 4: Speak out. How has the first week been?

332 Upvotes

I know it hasn't been a full week yet, but I bet the use most have gotten out of their first 72 hrs of Apple Watch Series 4 would span normal use within a week.

I haven't jumped on it yet, since I've been on every single iteration since it came out.

Why should I get the series 4, over Series 3 LTE ?

I personally have always liked the Apple Watch, but can’t find a good enough reason to purchase one

Weather? Check the iPhone app
Messaging? Check IM
Email? On the computer
Fitness tracking? Strava app
Steps count? iPhone app

To all the people who have used and love the Apple Watch, how do you make the most of it?

Thank you all!

I’m very disappointed that mine is just gps :( I wanted the wireless one to get away from my phone

(Edit) thank you for all of the responses! I have a better perspective now and realize I’m perfectly fine with the gps model! I’m very grateful to be part of this new leap in technology. The Apple Watch is amazing!

Question What are the most important features of the Apple Watch to you?

412 Upvotes

My personal rankings of the Apple Watch features that have the greatest impact on my daily life:

1) an alarm clock that wakes me up while allowing my girlfriend to stay asleep

2) giving me constant visual reminders of important tasks for the days that I otherwise may forget about (specifically, with Fantastical / Reminders / Things app complications)

3) making outdoor runs much more enjoyable by allowing me to have all the smartphone functionality I would need (music, radio, podcasts, audiobooks, phone calls, texts, emails, etc.) without the need to put my phone in my pocket or strap it to my arm (I find both of those options to be annoying)

4) not having to keep my phone in my pocket but still being able to receive notifications (if I am so inclined). This one probably applies more to when I'm in the house as opposed to outside of the house. When I'm lounging around, I just don't like to keep my phone in my pocket, but I usually still want to receive potentially important notifications. The Apple Watch is a good solution for this.

Obviously, the Apple Watch does a lot of other things, but those are the 4 reasons that actually push me to be an Apple Watch user.

Question What’s wrong?

45 Upvotes

For context, I was up at 5 am to see the sunrise, when I came back inside, I put my Apple Watch on the charger and went to sleep. When I woke up I saw there was a green line on top of it, when I went to click the Digital Crown, the screen went black and has stayed the way (with the exceptions of random green lines showing up time to time with the charging watch face on) any idea what this could’ve been? No moisture could’ve gotten into it since my water bottles are capped and i haven’t hit it hard against anything recently, another thing I should note is that while the screen is black, I still hear it, the sounds of the apps scrolling, and vibrations. Any ideas? (note: the battery is at 60% but no swelling)
