    Figured I'll share photos of my new Series 3 Alumium Gold with cheap Milanese Loop and Belkin's Black Leather strap. I'm a guy and that's a 38mm

    Does Apple watch support voice calls on any apps besides your iPhone's carrier account and facetime audio?

    Nike rum club yearly stays

    Posted: 19 Feb 2018 05:36 AM PST

    Is there a way to view how much I've run in a year with Nike run club? I only see a monthly option in the app. I just got my watch, and think I like the Nike app layout the best but want to make sure I will be able to review my stats long term. Maybe the option just doesn't show up yet since I've only used it for this month. Can anyone who uses the app let me know?

    Best place to sell Series 0 Apple Watch ?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2018 08:20 AM PST

    Hey guys,

    I know there's the subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/AppleBandMarket/

    but that seems more like a spot to sell bands and I'm trying to unload two Apple Watches I own:

    • 38mm Stainless Steel Case Black Classic Buckle (First Generation)

    • 38mm Stainless Steel Case Space Black Link Bracelet (First Generation)

    Trying to fund a Series 3 purchase, and I figure it's better if I sell both before I start collecting a bunch Apple Watches that will just sit in my dresser.

    They're both actually in great battery shape (had the non-space black ones battery replaced 6 months ago), and the space black has virtually no scratches on it.

    Would eBay be my best route?

    My Band Recommendations from a bunch of amazon purchases

    Posted: 18 Feb 2018 11:58 AM PST

    Hopefully this is useful ... no band pics, but some recommendations ... Since getting my AW3 I've bought a bunch of bands from Amazon … here's the good ones and 2 that were pretty crappy. Interesting that some of the less expensive ones have been the best. All of them were less than $20.

    Bands I'd recommend: - Sport Loop: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077T9375N/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Silicone: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071RM9P6H/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06ZZLQT7N/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - leather: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0779BSGVS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Ones not to buy: - Sport Loop ( this one has a gap in the clasp and seems loose): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077SLQ7HP/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Silicone (this one was a really "off" color not as pictured at all) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0736T2NTB/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Is there any way to receive notifications from Google Maps on Apple Watch?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2018 02:13 PM PST

    I prefer the Google Maps app for navigation, but I use Apple Maps because I really like getting notifications for upcoming turns on the Apple Watch.

    Is there any way to get notifications for upcoming turns from Google Maps on the Apple Watch?

    EDITED: Any way to get haptic alerts? I can get visual alerts but they're useless without the haptic feedback.

    Anyone else notice that after you take your Apple Watch off at the end of the day your wrist smells?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2018 05:37 PM PST

    I've noticed when I'm getting ready for bed it'll leave my wrist, where I was wearing it, stinky. :(

    Am I having issues with Siri or?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2018 10:39 PM PST

    Hey everyone, I finally got an Apple Watch today after years of wanting one. Now one issue I'm running into is when using "hey Siri" to write and send texts. It's perfect at writing up the text and then Siri asks if she should send it and for some reason she doesn't understand "yes" and there's no where to touch to say yes? I've also run into the same thing with setting a reminder. The Siri screen doesn't go away. I've read that lowering your wrist sends it but that didn't happen.

    Workout VS regular calorie-burn count?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2018 12:45 AM PST

    I've realized my watch says I've lost more calories when I have a workout turned on, rather than when I'm just completing the same activity without a workout running.

    I'm assuming my calorie burn is more accurate with the workout running, correct? Even if I'm not technically "working out"?

    I have a very physical job which requires moving around a lot. I turn on the "other" workout, and I find my watch says I burnt way more calories than other days when I just wear the watch with no workout on.

    So I was just wondering, am I getting a more accurate reading by turning on a workout? Should I just turn on an "other" workout when my shift begins? Or is that cheating?

    Getting my first Apple watch

    Posted: 19 Feb 2018 12:07 AM PST

    What are your favorite 5 Apple Watch apps overall and top 5 games?

    Getting my first Apple Watch on Saturday... decided on the Nike 3 42mm with LTE. I debated between the 38 and 42 as my wrist isn't big but after trying both I think the 42 isn't that big and likely good for the long haul!

    How can I get the Nike app to match my watch?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2018 05:59 PM PST

    I tried a search but couldn't find anything definitive since recent updates.

    When using the Nike run club app how can I use the watch to track my heart rate, and my phone for the guided runs from the coach?

    Whenever I've tried I can only do one or the other, and it's frustrating to get home to see either GPS data or heart rate data but not both...

    Thanks for any tips!

    AW calibration?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2018 07:07 PM PST

    Wife and I both have series3 watches and have been noticing some significant differences in the reported calories and distances traveled reported (up to a 50% difference after a full day spent entirely walking together).

    We have tried resetting the fitness calibration data as well as hard resetting but are still seeing inconsistent results.

    Any suggestions?
