I have to take it off to charge some time. Best time is when it would be in my way scrubbing my skin

Shower is the only time I take it of and charge is. Wear it for everything else, also while swimming.

Cool story, me too

I read that soap etc can mess up the sensors so unlike my Tag I never shower with mine. I charge it. 30 mins and we are good for 24 hours and honestly what telemetry is going to be missing?

I get loud noise notifications

I stopped wearing it

Am I the weirdo for taking the watch off when I sleep?

What watch band do you use? Are some more water proof than others?

I have a cloth strap. No thanks.

My S8 goes into the shower with me at least once every single day without ill-effects.

As a result, it’s clean as a whistle, and doesn’t have all my workout sweat building up in the nooks and crannies of the strap, along with all the delicious skin flakes that inevitable drop off us humans.

Whilst this thing isn’t a G-Shock you can cheerfully put through the dishwasher, the only outcome of a ten-minute shower is a clean me and a clean watch.

I’ve always showered with mine for years… it’s had plenty of soap/shampoo/hot water on it and it’s still perfectly fine. Love all the comments who basically say we’re lying, or as if we are fooled in thinking our watches aren’t broken.

No, I use that time to charge it.

Always after a workout with it!

I’ve been swimming with my Apple Watch since the Series 1 and have never had any issues.
