watchOS and Apple Watch Apps

Post Date:

Hello all,
I have a series 3 watch and I am not able to update it to the latest software. It keeps telling me I do not have enough space. It says I need 3.1 gigabytes free to do the update. Even if I delete all my apps and my health data, there is no way for me to get enough space. Is anyone else seeing this? I have seen a couple other people tweet about it.

Does anyone make use of the information that the vitals app provides? I'd love how to know how to interpret it with ease but I keep on finding myself getting confused. I think for the sided Community there is a visual representation whereas we get the percentages above or below and I find myself not being able to put the information to proper use. Does anyone feel the same way? Any tips to Moore quickly making use of this information.

I updated my watch this morning and found no problems. Everything is working as it should.

Hi. I read somewhere on Applevis that it is now possible to select your SIRI voice and use it as your Voiceover voice on an Apple Watch. I have a Series 3 watch and cannot locate any options, under Accessibility, to activate this. Is this facility available on a Series 3 watch, or is it confined to Series 4 and Series 5? Also, are such facilities available in the United Kindom, where I'm based, or only in the U.S? I am running IOS 13 on my IPhone and Watch OS 6 on my watch.

I don’t really feel comfortable constantly looking at my phone for navigation when I’m in an unfamiliar location as a totally blind person, so I thought an Apple Watch might serve me well. Should I get a new one? What do you think? Can you use navigation apps like Google Maps or Apple Maps on the watch, and does it improve your travel experience?

Hi,

I recently tried to pay with a card that is not my default in Apple Pay using the Apple Watch, and I did not succeed.

My Watch is running the latest version of watchOS 7.

I did the following.

Hi everyone. I've been enjoying using dictation on my new Apple watch (Series 2). However, when I go in to Facebook messenger, dictate the message and then double tap with two fingers to finish the dictation, instead of giving me the interpretation of what I've said, the app simply sends the message. Obviously, this makes the app pretty difficult to use on the watch since often I have to try the dictation once or twice to get it totally accurate. Just wondered if any other messenger users had experienced this issue? Dictation works as it should in all of the other apps.

Hi there. The subject line pretty much says it all. I’m looking at getting the Apple Watch Series 7, but I was wondering if you can use enhance voices for VoiceOver?

I have heard that there is a way to use airPods with the watch and have a couple of times had it happen by accident. How do I do it on purpose?
Edit: I don't need them to automatically switch.

Hello. I have an apple watch sport. It works really great and I have paired it with a bluetooth headset. I would need some advice to how to save battery when I do because I am not sure.
I have syncronized the apple watch with all mhy music. I am allways listening to Enya. I have 52 songs by her that I have bought on iTunes with my iPhone. But I would need some advice to how to save battery when I am using it as an iPod. Because the mode to save battery life turns off VoiceOver so this doesn’t work.

hi all so i am still considering my purchase of an apple watch but i do have a sensible question today. if i get tapped on the wrist can i lift it, without activating voiceover as i hear that is now possible and say hey siri, read my text whilst out and about. then have siri read it dictate reply and lower wrist? or do i still need to stop click with the crown and or touch screen read the message, find reply hit that then dictate? what i guess i'm trying to work out is how hands free is siri on an apple watch vs just pulling my iPhone out of my pocket?

Hello,

I have no apple watch but I have a question:
Is it possible to use the apple watch as a audio recorder? Since there is a microphone in thewatch, I think yes but not sure?
If it is possible what's the quality of the recordings?

Regards

Hello everyone.

I have just taken delivery of my new Apple Watch series 7, stainless steel 45 mm. With the new qwerty keyboard that I know is now available, can I slide to type, or, can I use direct touch typing as we can on the iPhone using VoiceOver? This does not seem possible, and seems quite frustrating to use. I also assume, that the always on display, will not really benefit those who have no site, so it is worth turning off?

Thank you,
Will.

Hi! I have iPhone SE 2020 and Apple Watch 7. I've found that I can control my iPhone audio via Apple Watch: to start playing, for example, an audio book on iPhone and then pause/restart it via Watch.
When I start audio on iPhone, I see the "stop", "previous" and "next" buttons on my watchface. It works, but I wonder if I can use the VoiceOver Magic Tap on my Apple Watch to pause/restart audio, like on iPhone. I mean, just to wake my watch up and use the Magic Tap. For me it doesn't work for now, but maybe it can be set up in some way?

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out whether the S2 watch has a rotor, but I hear nothing when I move my fingers on the screen. Of course, I'm just on the home screen and trying to do this on the smallish face of the watch. I think mine's the 45mm screen or something like that/it's the bigger one, my friend says. Of course, this is the person who gave me the watch as stated here before.

Hello everyone, I have just bought my first apple watch. I have the model 4.4. I tried to start voicedream reader, which appears to be available on my apple watch. However, when I double tab on the screen, the voice over says: "loading" and nothing happens. Later on, the apple watch restarts. I tried to reinstal voice dream reader on my iphone with the same result. Anyone has any suggestions? Thank you.

Hello,
I have a few voice memos I've recorded on my apple watch that I'd love to transfer to my iPhone. How can this be done?

Hi there,

I recently got a new Apple Watch (I think either Series 7 or Series 8.) My previous watch was a Series 3/4, so this was an upgrade.

I've run into a strange bug with my new watch that never happened with my older watch.

Randomly, and without notice, Voice Over will stop speaking on the watch. Haptics will still work, the watch will still say Voice Over is active (if my sighted husband looks at it for me). Looking at the Watch app on my iPhone indicates Silent mode is "off".

Is it possible to use another American voice for Voice Over on the AppleWatch, other than Samantha?
