watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

Post Date:

Hi All

I'm very new to posting comments on this website and what a brilliant site it is too.

I have two questions.

How do you contact Apple to submit suggestions for new features on Apple watch?

These are my suggestions and what do people think.

Firstly, haptick time. This is great but only works if voiceover is on.

If I'm in a theatre or cinema etc I turn voiceover off but then I'm unable to know the time.

My suggestion would be to be able to press twice on the crown to receive haptick time feedback.

Oddly, my Watch stubbornly refuses to use the English US voice.

I can get all other voices to work, but whenever I select English US as my system language the Watch uses the UK voice.

Would love to hear some early impressions from those who have been lucky enough to get their Apple Watch today (smiles)

Hi guys.
I'm looking for someone smarter than me to jump over the new boundries the workout app is bringing to me since I updated to watchOS 10
Before starting my running workout, things have changed but I can get used to them, but the problems come when I start running.

Hi guys.

I finally updated my iphone to iOS 16 and therefore my apple watch to watchOS 9. I was neglective to do so because all the batterie draining problems, but I needed to do so in order to get the new intervals trainings for the workout app.

The thing is that as you already know, the option to use the siri voice as the voiceover voice is not longer available, and instead, we have this option to add languages on the rotor.

Hi all. I just got my first apple watch. I'm trying to change the voice from Samantha to Alex so I have the same voice on both devices. I downloaded Alex onto my watch and chose the voice, but its still showing as Samantha. I tried changing the voice both from my watch itself and in the watch app on my phone. What's going on here? Am I doing something wrong?

Hello.
I have Watch OS 10 installed on my Apple Watch Series 8.
Ever since I've installed watch OS 10, I can't swipe to the different watch faces on the watch face screen using two finger swipe left and right.
I often have to edit the faces to get it to change.
I have five faces in total with different complications on each face.
Any ideas?

hi all can others reproduce this bug: at first i thought it solved the issue of hay siri not working on wrist rase in watch os 2.1 but it does not.
1. go to the iPhone watch app and go to the wake screen setting
2. set it to wake screen on wrist rase to on
3. then ensure that speak on wrist rase is off in voice over settings and that your when wake screen active that you in our example go to the clock face on the watch

I have trouble with my heart. I need an app that will tell and log my heart rate. I know that calm face does this but I don’t understand all of these things. I use the app he way it should but I don’t understand. What I read, because it is a lot of numbers and abriviations. Could someone help me?.

Hello team, hello other community members, I hope you are well.

First of all, I apologize for the forum chosen for this post, but I didn't find another one more suitable for the subject in question. I intend not to forget any detail of my situation, so that you can more easily and fully understand what is happening.

About the devices and operating systems I'm using, I'm talking about an iPhone 11 Pro Max running iOS 18.2.1, and an Apple Watch Series 4 running watchOS 10.6.1

hi to all, i have seen now both the 38 and 42 MM sports apple watch in a store. which do people find the easiest to use? i am totally blind so would be solely reliant on voiceover. can the small screen on a 38 MM make it difficult to use the watch just using gestures to find complications, do swipes etc? i liked the 42 but finds it "sticks" out if that makes sense, on my wrist. whereas in contrast the 38 mm seems very unobtrusive. how is battery life on a 38 MM watch?

Hello.
I have an apple watch and was recomended on this forum about cuckoo watch but find it hard to set it up because I don’t see wich hours to check. This is a small problem because but I need to know if the time iyou check will be the ones iut will ring on or if it will just ring if I don’t have them checked.

Hello everyone!
Inspired by a post on this forum, I am working on an app for the Apple Watch, and I need your help.
I am working on an app that will announce the time every hour.
That’s all it will do. No more, no less. It will imitate the old talking watches hourly report feature.
But to make this work, I need you to record your voice for the watch!
I would like to support as many languages as possible.
To that end, I would like to ask you all to record audio files with yourself, reading:
It’s 1 O’Clock AM
It’s 2 O’Clock AM

In OS 6, chimes do not work. I turn on chimes, selected hour, bird. I tested with turning off taptic off but bird sound does not come up. I turn voiceover and heard no chime when it came to the hour. Using watch 3. Help.

Hey all,
I am trying to enable taptic time on my apple watch SE, but i can't get it to work. Here is what i ahve done so far:
confirmed it is on
turned on silent mode
confirmed that "speak time" is set to "control with silent mode"

After following these steps, i have tried to use the prescribed gestures, (2 finger double tap, or 2 finger tap and hold) to get the taptic time, but no luck.
I would appreciate any help people have to offer.

I've had this happen three times where my Apple Watch will not speak, at all. I've turned VoiceOver off and on. I've used the three-finger double-tap to turn speech off and on, and still nothing. Haptics are working, but absolutely no voice. I have the Apple Watch 8 and I think it's WatchOS9.2. I've had to unpair and pair it again all three times. VoiceOver volume says 100 percent and haptic volume is 100 percent.
Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you so much.

For some reason, after I updated the watch to WATCHOS3.1.1 and the phone's alarm goes off, the watch's alarm does not. I've tried restarting both the phone and the Apple Watch. I have a first-generation apple watch. How can I fix this?
