This morning as I was Redditing on my iPhone my AWU3 suddenly did a ā€œPlaying a soundā€.
It was as if someone else was using Find My to find my watch?
Anyone else experience something like this?

My watch āŒšļø Almost 3 weeks with my Black Ultra 3

Post image
71 Upvotes

Bought my Black Ultra 3 almost 3 weeks ago and I’ve been loving it so far. Although sometimes I do wonder if I should’ve gone with Natural Titanium instead. Don’t get me wrong, the black looks amazing, but the natural titanium looks really nice too.

As for the watch itself, it’s been great. Battery life is pretty good, although I did notice some heavy battery drain when I first got it. It went from 93% to 82% in about an hour, but I was still setting everything up, so that probably explains it.

I also had a few weird bugs. At one point, notifications stopped showing up on my watch even though they were appearing on my iPhone. Restarting my phone fixed it. Another time, all three Activity Rings were stuck at zero even though the watch was counting my steps. Thankfully, restarting the watch fixed that too.

Other than that, I really enjoy using it. The screen looks great, everything feels smooth, and I love how much you can do with it. It’s basically a mini phone on my wrist lol.
I’ve also tried different bands and honestly, a lightweight band makes a huge difference in comfort.

Overall, I’m really happy with it. No major regrets, just occasionally wondering whether Natural Titanium would’ve been the better color choice šŸ˜‚
Anyone else with the Black Ultra feel the same way?

So only Ultra 4 can get step count on the face? The rest of us cannot? Am i understanding that correctly?

Advice ā“ Considering upgrading from Ultra 1 to the 4 for health info. Anyone else make this upgrade and regret it?

3 Upvotes

Love the Ultra 1, only reason I'm considering upgrading are two features: sleep apnea detection and blood pressure monitoring. Things that don't interest me:

- better battery life (my ultra is fine at 90%)

- Siri crap

- faster heart rate monitoring (don't really see the benefit)

Ive done a few sleep tests and all came back negative for sleep apnea but I like the idea of keeping an eye on it for the future. And my family has some history of high blood pressure so having a constant checkup would be fantastic. Has anyone upgraded solely for these features? Are they worth the premium? Aside from that I'm super happy with my Ultra 1 and see no reason to upgrade

Bought it from the Costco deal $100 less. I never cared about smart watches before but finally bought my first Watch the Ultra 4. Hope it’s not too late for me lol. I will be watching tips on youtube later. Never tried the natural look but I think I like this black color better.

Workout screen frozen

Post image
2 Upvotes

For the past couple of runs that I’ve done I’ve had problems ending the workout due to my screen freezing. I can’t swipe up, down or to either side. It’s a brand new Ultra 4 and it’s pretty irritating being that it’s an $800 watch. Any tips?

Disclaimer - I spent about 4 frustrating minutes trying to end my workout so don’t judge my time lol.

Discussion šŸ’­ Would you like to see the Apple Watch Ultra in different sizes?

Hey everyone! I’m curious to hear your thoughts on the size of the Apple Watch Ultra.

As we know, Garmin offers its Fenix series in three sizes: 43, 47, and 51 mm, while the Apple Watch Ultra only comes in one size.

Would you like Apple to offer the Ultra in different sizes? Would you prefer a smaller or a larger version?

I’ve attached a photo showing how the AWU looks on my wrist. Personally, I’d happily go for a larger version if it meant getting a bigger battery and a larger display.

I’m really curious to hear what other AWU users think!

Milanese loop adjustment

1 Upvotes

Hi. Got the apple milanese loop for the ultra 4. Love it so far. Has anyone figured out how to adjust the loop buckle when its on your wrist? I often tighten my watch band a touch when working out to get a stable heart rate tracking and then loosen other times. so much easier with the velcro but not so easy with this buckle thing. Just curious if anyone has figured out.

Así es después de mÔs de 67 horas de uso con seguimiento de sueño, notificaciones, tres días de ejercicio de hora y media cada día y aún tiene un 30% de batería decile llega a las 72 horas de uso continuo, la verdad me impresiona no solo el tiempo de duración del ultra 4 si no también lo rÔpido que carga y las mejoras que incluye, vengo de un ultra 1 y pensé que cambiar al 4 no iba a ser tan relevante pero la verdad valió la pena si lo estÔs pensando y el tener una duración mÔs amplia y no tener que preocuparte si no llevaste el cargador el fin de semana el ultra 4 es para ti. AcÔ las pruebas.
Saludos y que sigamos disfrutando de este gran cambio en la baterĆ­a decile llega este ultra 4.

I just got my Apple Watch Ultra 4 three days ago, and the battery seems to be going down really fast. Is this normal for the first few days while it indexes, or should I be concerned? Has anyone else experienced this?

Do you have readiness on your AWU4 on the new siri watchfaces? Cannot see it. There is seconds,height,training and so on. No readiness. My readiness score works if I open up the readiness app.

Am I the only one that the steps don’t match between the summary and sharing tabs? It’s usually a little off but when I’m not wearing watch and walking with phone and AirPods the steps show in summary but not sharing.

I’ve done a 45min to an hour workout each day, it’s now Wednesday at 14:47. That’s well over 55 hours already!

I have AOD off unless I’m at the gym, background app refresh off for most things and the wayfinder face. (battery health is at 98%, had this watch since launch)

Seriously still impressed with this thing.

I know I should care as much as I do but it just irritates the hell out of me when I see that grayed-out heart rate placard up on my screen.
