I want a damn built in weight app.

[–] nemu33@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Glucose monitoring. Better battery life.

[–] PTAaron2001@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Make it round like a watch.

Let it use the sound/ringtones that are on the phone. I have custom ringtones for my commonly used contacts, but I don’t get to hear them with the watch on!

Better battery

The gentle alarm clock.

[–] edogawafan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Adjustable brightness instead of always relying on the ambient light sensor.

Adjustable wake duration beyond 15 and 70 seconds. Who came up with a random number like 70 and why is there such a dramatic difference and nothing in between or shorter?

3-day battery life for the main line series.

Likewise. I’d also like to see blood sugar measurements. I’m not diabetic, but have friends who are and either blood sugar or blood pressure capabilities would sell boatloads more watches and would drive the stock up a decent bit β€” and that…makes me happy!

Probably a pipe dream but my most wanted feature is blood glucose monitoring.

Whoop/Oura-like strain, recovery, stress tracking for a quantitative approach to fitness and health

[–] spazzcat@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They need to buy whoop and make its features part of AW.

Compatible with tattoos.

Passive NFC tag scanning

[–] whosam@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Since the Apple Watch 0, The thing I wanted the most was for the ringtones to match what I have setup on my phone. Especially custom tones for each contact on messaging apps.

I want a message icon that only shows if you have a message. Why hasn’t apple thought of it. What is Tim Cook doing with this company???

[–] mekanikal510@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I guess its more of an App wish but I wish it would unlock my tesla when i forget my phone in the house.

As someone who has fought pre-hypertension for a few years now with exercise this would be my number one feature to have a baseline and know if it is time to explore meds before it gets too late.

High BP is seriously silent.

I wish you could get a standalone Apple Watch without the phone and it could be a replacement for my phone, keys and wallet and I get to strap on my watch and some AirPods and go out without having to carry all that shit with me in my pockets also it should be able to tether devices to use the Internet like if I have an iPad with me or something

Erasing texts on the watch erases them on the phone too

[–] I-RedDevil-I@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Solar charging

[–] Jaswah@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Don’t ever not show me the time!!! You are a watch. So infuriating when you go to check the time and there’s a full screen alert, and the time isn’t available. It shits me to tears.

I'd like the idea of being able to charge the watch while still wearing it. Like how Whoop does it. Yes, I do understand there could be potential consequences.

In addition that all that the series 9 has, blood pressure. That's really it.

Solar. It could extend charging time up to a week. So many competitors can go a week without charging

[–] Jack_-_R@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Am I missing something with all the requests for 24 H HR ?? It's definitely doing that and will alert you if you go over a HR you set. I use that a lot. Maybe it's more of a full reporting of HR?

[–] Affected_By_Fjaka@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
  • custom , per notification type vibration strength and pattern
  • empty watch face with no time, just for complications
  • 100 percent programable buttons so we can all individually decide what pressing (or double pressing) of button does
[–] eikast@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

For the red screen on the AW Ultra to be applied system-wide (It's kind of dumb that it's only on the watch face but if you get a notification bam here you go full colors and brightness).

The ability to allow for more readings (specifically HR).

Custom watch faces (I know that there are apps that you can kind of use, but they're not legit watch faces).

A sports mode that would prioritize readings and reduce performance of the watch to increase battery life (I don't like/want to use the battery saving mode because it basically reduces the readings).

Rest days, battery life, recovery metrics and one app for all of the health/fitness information.
