No love it
Apple
A place for Apple news, rumors, and discussions.
I’ve grown to really like it. I used to have to use multiple watch faces to cover all the app/complications I used throughout the day, now I can easily scroll down and there they all are in the same place.
All I can say is thanks to you folks. I'm still on 9 because of all these posts.
Minority viewpoint: I like it. A lot. WatchOS needed a visual refresh. The scroll Notification Center thingy is useful and allows me to use faces without a lot of complications. Still easy to swap between faces, but is now more intentional than accidental. Finally, the Apple Music upgrades are awesome - looks better, runs snappier over cellular.
Yep. Saw it in beta earlier this year and switched to Garmin. Kevin Lynch, who was the Watch OS guru at Apple, left the team earlier this year which is a shame and IMO why it sucks so much now.
This has been posted EVERY. SINGLE. DAY
It horrible
It’s worse tbh. I miss swimming down to toggle certain options and I don’t use widgets at all. I’m not sure I’m crazy about autonight mode
Really.... again? every day a post about this?
I'm not a fan of it either but I'll learn... and it'll become normal in due time.
I feel i’m in the minority that likes it.
Anyone else tired of these kind of posts appearing multiple times a day?
Yes, it’s garbage on my Series 7.
Unpopular opinion but I like some of the new features, and since I use the Metropolitan face, I like that you have to tap the screen to resize the numbers because I was always bumping the crown with my wrist and messing up the way I had it set.
Yes. They “fixed” a bunch of things that weren’t broken and broke some things that were just fine.
It took me about a month and a half to get used to it. When I grabbed my Series 6 it was horrible going back.
Your mileage will vary.
It’s horrible for me and I hate it, too. My Apple Watches are now in the drawer since the last updates, not wearing them anymore. Thanks Apple!!!!
Interested in selling? Which watches do you have and what do you want for them?
I like it a lot actually, I just hate the occasional lag.
Idk how to describe it but it looks more “the apple way”
I like it. Easier to access control center with a button press regardless of where in the watch you are (swipe from the bottom only worked for me on the watchface, never in apps).
Stacks are nice and they let me use less “complicated” watchfaces without the feel of missing out on functionality. Though I’d love to be able to set up different stacks per watchface.
If you do a quick search, you’ll find there there are, in fact, a lot of people who don’t like it.
I see no benefits at all to WatchOS 10
Awww…. Muffin
I hate it. I hate the Timer app especially. I hate seeing all my random timers show up and take up so much space. These random timers I’m likely not gonna use again in a long time. I loved that it used to allow you to FAVORITE timers!! Why did they remove that from 10
People keep posting this...I can't even tell the difference really.
I hate it . I miss simple swipe up to get to very useful tasks
Yes… changing to garmin
Oh my god who the hell cares!?
No
yep, they pretty much ruined
I see this posted a couple of times a day and I’m beginning to feel bad that I don’t hate watchOS10.
The watch face that I use almost all the time didn’t change. It took about 1/2 a day to get used to the button changes. I haven’t had any battery issues and have come to like the optimized charging feature. I got with the program and set up a couple of automations to change the face so that I can easily control my music when I’m at work.
The watch still buzzes and tells me to get off my fat ass when I’ve been sitting too long. My alarms still sound. My text notifications still notify.
If I had any complaints, I’m not extremely fond of the stock weather app, but I have an alternative that I usually use anyway. And even the stock app only requires a couple of extra taps to get to the info that I like to see. I would like a couple of different faces or the ability to further modify the one I use most (Modular).
All in all - a big nothingburger for me. But I’m working on generating some hate. Give me a couple more weeks….
I don’t like it at all. But I think it’s a mix of needed to relearn some functions so over time it might grow on me. The amount of times I have to press to do my workouts is so annoying.
What pisses me off the most is how much it slowed down my watch. I have an SE 1. And as soon as I updated this thing lags so much. I have to press a few times. Screens take forever to load.
A lot of people seem to hate it. I think hate is extreme. I don’t really like the changes they made but have gotten used to them now.
Though, I wouldn’t mind if they allowed me to turn off widgets and return the control center to swipe up.
I dont hate it but I am not a fan. I'd rather have the old one back.
And the media player sucks, it sometimes (involuntarily) pairs to my iphone and for god's sake I can't find a way to unpair it, damn it, I just want to play music from my watch itself; it used to have an entry in the menu, well, it's no longer there... the only way around I found is just restarting my watch and play the music again.
This I believe is because it's set to use the media player without the phone. They figure if you have the phone you'd use it over the watch. I have zero issues when I leave the phone behind. I'm assuming you mean from the watch over BT as it doesn't play just on the watch ever.
No, I really like it.
Yeah I wish I could go back to 9 because of the changes in swiping watch faces and scrolling. Today I wanted to change to another face and it wasn’t cooperating - tapping on the target face did nothing.
yes I didn’t upgrade
I’m so fucking tired of hearing about watchOS 10 lmao. It’s not bad at all
I find no purpose for widgets at all in all Apple OSs
Well, we did get a stopwatch that doubles as a flashlight.
Yeah holy shit it’s the worst
Adapt, you’ll be okay.
I got used to the changes without even thinking about it. You guys write paragraphs of complaints. Wow
