hi all i am really enjoying my apple watch but hey siri the feature i was most hoping to use has some oddities, which i would like to share and hope others would join me, in reporting to accessibility at apple.
when you hold down the digital crown we feel a double tap on the wrist to tell us siri is ready so i can go text david woodbridge, thank you for the podcast. wait for the tap tap the screen and read. now lowering my arm is not sending the message only pressing the crown as a home button is this correct?
however i digress

Hello,

In December I upgraded from an Apple Watch series 2 to a series 7 GPS model.

Everything works fine appart from the fact that I am unable to get “Hey Siri” to work.

I know the watch has internet connectivity when out of range of my iPhone 12 Pro Max or when the iPhone is powered down as pressing the Digital Crown on the Watch Siri responds as you would expect. I can stream media too so the watch is definitely connected to the outside world.

I have checked in the Watch App and on the watch itself and “Listen for hey Siri” is enabled.

Hello,
I was wondering if any here have found an app which can give a chime or sound every hour on the AppleWatch? I have found apps which can make the standard "ding" that the AppleWatch makes, but I would like a custom sound instead. Most of all I would like a "beep-beep" like on the old digital watches, but I'll settle for a sound other than what the watch makes on most other alerts. Hope somebody can help. Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Øystein

Hi, I have a few questions for a friend. 1 how do you maximize the battery life of the Apple watch series 7? He gets about 18 hours. Is that normal? How do you close open apps on the watch? This is of course using voice over. What could you turn off or on to get more battery life?

Hello. I am wondering if there is a way to see what apps are using when it comes to battery? I would like to know this in order to know what apps to remove.

Hello. For some reason on my apple watch, the screen randomly locks and I don’t know why. Is there a good way to prevent my watch from randomly locking? It doesn’t matter all that much but thought I would ask here if there is a way.

Hi.
I have a new apple watch that has the waterlock.
I go to the workout app or whatever, the one native, and find pool swimming, though I cannot access it when I have activated waterlock. Does the watch automaticaly go to waterlock when I start the workout? I hear the four beeps, like a start signal, and assume the waterlock is on, but I am not sure. Because I think I need the waterlock on before even junmping into the water. Am I to press the crown and doc buttons to pause it because it seems to me that it starts instantly.

I have a series 1 Apple watch and want to delete some unused apps off of it. I assumed that I needed to do it using my phone, but can't seem to work out how.

Could any one please tell me some step by step directions on how to do this? Thank you.

Back in February I got an Apple Watch series 3. I love the fact it keeps track of things like your heart rate, your movement, ETC. What I find extremely off is when I am standing, and when I am not. The watch things I stand over 12 hours a day, when in fact I am sitting. does anyone have this issue, and if so, have you found a way to fix this?

My friend’s Apple Watch reads out his split times when running,I’ve enabled the setting on mine but it still won’t do it my friend has it configured differently for different activities, so it reads splits for running but not for walking. How do I do this please?

Hi.
I have used an Apple Watch series 2 for very long time, and today I just got a new Apple Watch series 5.
I have an issue which happens on both watches, and I'm wandering if I'm doing something wrong, or if there is a setting which I have to change.
When using the watch, even when navigating the screen, the screen suddenly locks and makes the screen lock click. That even happens a few seconds after I have swiped to the next icon, or made other gestures on the screen. Then I have to unlock the watch again to continue using it.

Hello, I'm new to the Apple Watch and noticed an app called WalkyTalky on my watch. I'm guessing it came preinstalled on the watch, but I'm not sure what it's used for. I'm also hazarding a guess that it is accessible to a VoiceOver user. I'd appreciate if someone could explain how it works. Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer me about this app.

Hi all:
I just got my 38 MM apple watch sport yesterday. So far, I'm loving it! However, this is the question I have.
In his excellent series of podcasts, David Woodbridge states you can put the Apple Watch screen to sleep just by covering the screen with a hand. No matter how many different ways I try to do this, I can't get it to work. Is there a trick to it? Am I misunderstanding David's instructions in the podcasts?
Thanks in advance!

Hello fellow Watchers (smiles)

I am curious to hear whether anybody else struggles to tell the difference between the patterns and force levels of haptic feedback?

I know that the actual effect varies between applications and notifications; and that the idea is that the pattern tapped on your wrist gives you an indication of what you're being alerted about. But, in all honesty, by the time that I have realized that I am being ‘tapped’, it seems too late to distinguish the pattern or force level.

Hi Everyone.

I have been trying for some time to put apps that are not in the dock area of my apple watch into the dock area.

For Weather Gods I need to use the favourite apps one. No matter what I do I can't move any apps that aren't in my dock to the dock even if the dock is empty.

Is there a way to do this mark an app as a favourite.

this has been driving me mad for ages.

Cheers.

From Snowy.

Hey guys. Has anyone been successful adding radio stations to the Streamlets Apple Watch app? I tried to add a local station that is not on the app to that radiobrowser.info website that they direct you to in order to add streams to their database. Everything goes well but when I go to Streamlets and try to play the station I just added, it gets stuck on buffering. Also, the radiobrowser.info site says that the link is broken, which I don't understand why that is seeing as how I think I've entered the information correctly.
