I have TRIED to like watchOS 10. Hell, I was pretty excited for new features, but it’s been a massive disappointment. I don’t use the widgets at all, since I already have everything I want on my watch face. The control center was great where it was, and the Digital Crown and side buttons have been completely changed. I can’t double press on the crown to return to my previous app, which I used multiple times a day. Now I have to use the dock to return to my last app, which adds extra steps. Apple Watch was great because of how efficient it was to use, but WatchOS 10 has made added so many steps to any action. I’m really hoping Apple will give us the option for this new UI or the old one, because it sucks.
No, I really like it.
Yes, it’s garbage on my Series 7.
I’ve grown to really like it. I used to have to use multiple watch faces to cover all the app/complications I used throughout the day, now I can easily scroll down and there they all are in the same place.
People keep posting this…I can’t even tell the difference really.
Yes… changing to garmin
This has been posted EVERY. SINGLE. DAY
I like it. Easier to access control center with a button press regardless of where in the watch you are (swipe from the bottom only worked for me on the watchface, never in apps).
Stacks are nice and they let me use less “complicated” watchfaces without the feel of missing out on functionality. Though I’d love to be able to set up different stacks per watchface.
If you do a quick search, you’ll find there there are, in fact, a lot of people who don’t like it.
Yep. Saw it in beta earlier this year and switched to Garmin. Kevin Lynch, who was the Watch OS guru at Apple, left the team earlier this year which is a shame and IMO why it sucks so much now.
I hate it . I miss simple swipe up to get to very useful tasks
I see this posted a couple of times a day and I’m beginning to feel bad that I don’t hate watchOS10.
The watch face that I use almost all the time didn’t change. It took about 1/2 a day to get used to the button changes. I haven’t had any battery issues and have come to like the optimized charging feature. I got with the program and set up a couple of automations to change the face so that I can easily control my music when I’m at work.
The watch still buzzes and tells me to get off my fat ass when I’ve been sitting too long. My alarms still sound. My text notifications still notify.
If I had any complaints, I’m not extremely fond of the stock weather app, but I have an alternative that I usually use anyway. And even the stock app only requires a couple of extra taps to get to the info that I like to see. I would like a couple of different faces or the ability to further modify the one I use most (Modular).
All in all - a big nothingburger for me. But I’m working on generating some hate. Give me a couple more weeks….
It’s worse tbh. I miss swimming down to toggle certain options and I don’t use widgets at all. I’m not sure I’m crazy about autonight mode
It horrible
Yes. They “fixed” a bunch of things that weren’t broken and broke some things that were just fine.
It took me about a month and a half to get used to it. When I grabbed my Series 6 it was horrible going back.
Your mileage will vary.
