watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

Post Date:

Apple provides user guides for their products in an accessible screen-reader friendly way.
Recently the user guide for Apple Watch that was available under this link:
https://help.apple.com/watch/en.lproj/index.html
is gone.
Anyone has any idea if the link has changed?

I have been trying to use FlickType Keyboard on my Apple Watch SE, as well as some other apps that use the FlickType SDK, such as WristMe (a GroupMe client), WatchChat 2 (a WhatsApp client), and Lens for Instagram. On iOS, you use FlickType by enabling direct touch in the rotor if the app is not enabled under Settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Rotor Actions > Direct Touch Apps. If the app is enabled on this page, which it seems to be by default, direct touch is automatically enabled.

Is there a way to disable audio ducking for VoiceOver on Apple Watch?
I'm on WatchOS 9.6.1.

I have noticed that when I get a message on my watch I cannot seem to find a way to dismiss it so I see it in my phone anyway because there doesn’t seem to be any dismiss button.

I am using an Apple Watch Series 8 and am running the latest Watch OS 11.1. Since upgradeing the operating system, I have found that whatever Voiceover voice I use, it sometimes randomly becomes distorted and at other times, it speaks fine. Wondering if anyone has come across this and if there is a solution? I have tried switching Voiceover on and off, as well as muting and unmuting it, often to no avail. I have tried changing voices, altering volume and the like and the problem is often still there. At other times, the voice speaks just fine, as expected.

Hello everyone,
Well today I went to my local Apple store and my parents bought me an Apple Watch for Christmas. They are being mean however and wont let me have it till Christmas Day. LOL. Has anyone bought a case for their watch and if so what kind did you buy? I am curious because I tend to hit my normal watch on the wall sometimes and I dont want to scratch up the new watch when I am allowed to have it anyways.

Thanks,
Greg Wocher

Hi guys. So my series 4 came in today, and I'm testing everything new that I can find. I almost accidentally tested fall detection when I tripped over something the cat knocked into the floor, but that's not the point. When taking an ECG, do any of you get this horrifically painful sound for the duration of the ECG, or is that a Watch OS 6 thing?

Hi all.

If I go into workouts, I see them,e.g. elliptical, outdoor
running,and so on. Support says there's a button to edit, but I don't see that. However if I swipe down, e.g. on elliptical, I get to show more workouts. If I tap that, I see settings for 30 minutes, 100 calories, and a create workout button.

Are those the defaults? I have no idea what the elliptical workout is set to. A half hour would be fine for me, which is why I'm
wondering. What's the process for finding default settings for a workout, and possibly editing them?

Hi, I have sleep cycle, however couldn't find where to enable this. I'd like my apple watch to vibrate or something when I snore. I heard that it can be done but don't know how.

Hi everyone,
Since I updated to watchOS 10.2, all the enhanced Vocalizer voices are gone on my Apple Watch. A restart does not help. The enhanced voices don't appear in Settings > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Voices.

Does anyone else have this issue?

hello friends,
Today, while using siri to make a facetime audio call to a friend on my apple watch series 3 running watch os version 4.3, i noticed that the call would divert to my iphone instead.
I thought this was strange so i repeated the facetime audio call a couple of times with the same results.
I also tried resetting my bluetooth and network setting but it too did not help,
I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me some possible solutions to fix this problem,
Thank you very much
Arvind

Hi all, is there a way to focus on a button on apple watch? I work out a lot, and would love to be able to tap on the heart rate, and not have to keep tapping the apple watch to get my heart rate read out. So, what I'm after, is to focus in on the heart rate, then get voiceover to read out whenever it changes without having to touch the watch

I found a yatzee game for the apple watch. Just search for yatzee in the apple watch app and you will find it. It is important to spell it yatzee to find it.

Hey guys, do you all know if there are any good free apps that I can record from my Apple Watch and sync it to my phone? I know I’m using a very obsolete model of watch, but as of right now, this is all I have so I have to make do with it. this watch was given to me as a gift. Anyway, I have AudioMemos but I was wondering if there are others? I have tried to sync voice memos from Apple with the phone after I made a recording on my watch, but it doesn’t work.

Hello. I am looking for a free audio recorder for my app bbecause I cannot get a gift card right now. I found one that works kind of good but I don’t know how reliable it is. Can anyone reccomend a good such app?

Hi,

Before I report this to Apple, I just wanted to find out if anyone else has noticed this problem.

I clicked the Friends button and double-tapped on someone's name. I then double-tapped the Phone button. But the next screen which shows a button for each phone number for that friend had no labels on any of the buttons. Previously each button would have the label for each number, such as Home, Mobile or Facetime.

Hello,
I just downloaded the Gentler Streak--GS app on my phone. due to having the option for having the apps on my watch too, I'll hopefully get this when I plug the watch into a power source. however, looking at the prices for the primium packages, I can't really afford the high-end ones. Is GS really worth it to spend $9 US. a month? If not, I'll delete before the trial ends. when that happens, will I automatically be paid the first of many high-end purchase prices? Please answer as quickly as you can as I have only like 48 hours left or something.
