    HeartRate++ a better Heart Rate complication for Apple Watch

    HeartRate++ a better Heart Rate complication for Apple Watch

    Apple Watch has always been one of my favourite Apple product, and it's the only smartwatch I use on a daily basis.

    But it had always one big flaw for me which is not being able to see my current heart rate using the built-in complication, without going into the Heart Rate app.

    built in Heart Rate complication

    Apple announced Watch OS 6 last WWDC along with the awesome new SwiftUI, and ability to develop independent Watch apps.

    That provided me with a great opportunity to both learn SwiftUI and develop a simple independent watch app that provides me with the heart rate complication I always wished for.

    So I created HeartRate++ a simple Heart Rate app that provides you with all the Heart Rate complications you may ever need, plus a simple at-a-glance view to see how your heart rate been doing for the last 12 hours.

    App Screen

    Corner Complication

    Modular Watch Face Complication

    Small Complication

    Gauge Complication

    Utility Complication

    When you open the app on your watch it gives you a real-time heart rate measurement as long as it's open, and the complications update every 10 minutes to give you the most up to date measurement.

    Available complications are Modular Corner, Modular Gauge, Utility and Modular. And works with any Apple Watch with Watch OS 6 and above installed.

    I like how I organized my Apple Watch.

    WatchOS 6.1 fixes 6.0/6.0.1 battery drain on my 2 year old Series 3! This was its battery status with 6% remaining. Glad Apple fixed that, although 6.1 is not completely bug free.

    I, too have been shopping on Aliexpress!

    Just thought I'd share my haul that just arrived!

    Me and my SO just bought about 5 or 6 each.

    On my wrist, cheap knock-off Milanese loop - surprisingly comfortable! Smooth to touch, smooth to look at. Magnet seems strong. Bangs on the edge of my laptop! But I'm sticking with it for the moment.

    Got that and a bunch of sports loops for different moods. Great quality.

    I've got a really hairy wrist!

    When Do watch complication

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 04:55 AM PST

    When Do watch complication

    I've just launched a new stand alone watch app that provides a simple complication to display a count until or since a special event. It scratched a personal itch as I had something similar on android before my conversion.

    Thanks to mods for allowing this post.

    WatchOS 6.1 on the Series 1: A comprehensive review & update on Battery

    Posted: 03 Nov 2019 04:13 PM PST

    Okay. I'm a bit behind on this update. I was meant to do this a few days ago, but between all the fires and power outages here in California, I hadn't had the chance.

    If you haven't read my review, you can do so right here. I was originally going to simply reply to the post, but I feared my reply would get lost in the rest.

    TL;DR: After the initial indexing period, the watch's battery has improved beyond that of 5.0. I would suggest updating your Series 1 or Series 2 so long as it doesn't have absolutely unusable battery life.

    So, how has my experience changed?

    • Usage differences in WatchOS 6.1 over 5.0

    Personally, I don't find too much different in my usage. The hourly chimes are probably my most used feature in WatchOS 6. It's a great way to stay informed of the hour, and like I said in my review, brings the AOD of the Series 5 to the Series 1 in a way, letting me know the time without looking at the watch. I will note, however, the new apps and interfaces in WatchOS 6 do prove themselves useful in my low usage.

    • Battery Life

    After the initial indexing, battery life has improved. I'm seeing about 3 hours longer of a battery, and with low to moderate usage, that's 27 hours without setting my watch on a charger. Granted, I don't use my Watch as much as I'm sure a lot of you do. You can expect about 24 hours with more moderate use. Oh, and of course, your results may vary. My Series 1 has seen low-to-moderate use every day for the past 3 years or so. If you're in a similar boat, it's safe to say you can expect the same battery performance.

    • For what it's worth

    Overall, I'm happy with updating my watch. It's got lots of cool features, and now that we know for certain battery life isn't a thing to worry about, I urge everyone else with a functional Series 1 or Series 2 to update. It's a sleek new design with improved GUIs, great functional apps, improved battery life, and many other things I've gone over in my review.

    So far the California Watch face has been my favorite on the S5 with the Always on Display, it really compliments the SS Gold. What’s yours?

    [Support] Can't use WPA2 Entreprise Wifi (eduroam) on WatchOS 6

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 08:28 AM PST

    Hi,

    I'm seeing a lot of talk around this issue but none worked for me.

    I want to connect my Apple Watch series 5 to an WPA2 Entreprise network (my school's "eduroam") but I'm facing several issues :

    • When using the automatic certificate (which I'm using in both iPhone and Mac, the certificate simply won't install from the Apple Watch app.
    • When using the username / password method, it says "can't connect to eduroam" but without the prompt to install the certificate, as I've seen in other posts.

    Also, the username / password method does not work on my iPhone / Mac, the eduroam website says that apple devices need the installer.

    Any idea ?

    My iPhone XR is run-in iOS 13.2 and my Series 5 cellular is running WatchOS 6.0.1

    Call answer / Hand-off issues

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 08:11 AM PST

    Hey guys, wondering if anyone has any issues with answering calls on their phone/earbuds while the watch is notifying you that a call is coming in. I take the call on earpiece but the watch keeps trying to get me to answer the call. If i accept it then it switches to the watch, which is stupid, and there's no way to ignore it. Kind of a pain in the ass if you ask me. Happening more since the latest to 6.1. I am on a series 2 SS.

    Bringing down the notification shade from anywhere

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 02:12 AM PST

    Here's a great tip that I found myself today.

    Of course, swiping down on the watch face brings down the notification shade. Holding down on the top of the watch face also makes it peek out, allowing you to swipe down that way too. However, this only works on the watch face. What if you're in a workout and want to check your notifications quickly without leaving the workout app? Simply hold down on the top of the screen, making it peek out and allowing you to swipe it down. This also works for the control center, making turning on or off do not disturb mode easy!

    [Question] Newbie Watch owner

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 07:42 AM PST

    Can someone please enlighten me?

    Short version: WatchOS 4.2.3 is said to work with iOS 11.2, but the Watch app declines?

    Details: I finally got a new iPhone 8, (New Old Stock) with iOS 11.2.1. I wanted it for jailbreaking. I also got a Series 3 Cellular watch that has WatchOS 4.0.1. The Wikipedia page for WatchOS says that I should be able to update the watch to the last version that is supported by iOS 11.2, which is WatchOS 4.2.3. However, when I try to update from the phone it says I have to first update the phone, which I will not be doing.

    Any help appreciated.

    Switching from Garmin to Apple Watch

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 07:35 AM PST

    Did anyone here switch from Garmin to Apple? On the Garmin reddit I've seen several who have jumped from Apple to Garmin and just wondered. If so why did you switch and which do you find more motivational for general fitness? I love Garmins data but I really like the Apple rings. I'm kind of torn. I currently have an instinct and a AW3. Considering getting the AW5.

    Series 4 or 5? [advise needed]

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 06:34 AM PST

    Hello, I am currently looking into buying an apple watch.

    Mainly because of two reasons:

    1. I am on the market for a watch and...
    2. I like to run and would enjoy the fitness features (for example: pacing)

    I already have an iPhone and also think that the apple watch is a much nicer looking watch than most other smartwatches (in my opinion of course), so it seems like a good choice.

    My questions are:

    • Is it ever a problem to raise your wrist?
    • Is there a significant delay when raising your wrist before the screen turns on?
    • In your opinion what would be smartest to buy.

    I don't mind raising my wrist but I would mind raising my wrist and then wait a bit to look at the watch.

    What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance!

    New Apple Watch owner, question about notifications

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 06:22 AM PST

    Hey guys, 10 year android owner here finally switched over and got myself an Apple Watch. Wow, I really have been missing out. Quick question though, I love the AOD and I really don't need the wrist lift to wake the screen so I turned that off. But now when notifications come in, the screen doesn't light up to show me the notifications. Is it designed this way? I still want to see my notifications as they come in but don't need the screen turning on to high power all day long just because I lifted my arm the slightest bit. I hope not and hopefully I'm just missing something.

    So how does Apple Watch sense a workout

    Posted: 03 Nov 2019 11:42 PM PST

    What I mean is that when you forgot to put on workout while working out. How does it know? Because when I forget the Apple Watch doesn't notice I'm working out. I also have workout reminder on. It doesn't even sense my walking workout.

    Notification / control centers not appearing, requiring restart

    Posted: 04 Nov 2019 05:30 AM PST

    Has anyone else had an issue with watchOS 6 where swiping up or down doesn't get you the control or notification centers? Once or twice I've got it to work again by opening an app and doing the long tap on the top or bottom of the screen to pull them out, but now it seems more often the only fix is a restart.

    Anyone else?
