How many of you guys wear your AW 24/7? I’ve been only wearing it as a watch. Not really even working out in it since I have Whoop but I’m interested in utilizing more of the features such as HRV, V2O, etc. but I feel like I will have to wear it 24/7. I usually only wear my AW only during work.
Nope. I wear it 22.5/7 1.5hrs for charging SE Gen2
No, I generally charge it overnight because I don’t really find the sleep stats useful, and it’s the most convenient time to charge it.
I do. Brief charge in the AM when I’m showering, etc. and briefly at night before bed. Otherwise, it’s pretty much always on my wrist. Ultra 2.
Yes
I do. Mainly because I like data, especially rhr.
On the AW Series 8, I pretty much only wore it at work, then let it charge back up, and would use it to track sleep.
Now that I have the Ultra 2, I can actually go over a day without taking it off, thanks to the better battery life. So the only times I take the watch off are for charging and taking a shower.
I don’t wear mine when I’m at home but a lot of that was from my prior AW 4 with sport band being uncomfortable for me to wear for extended periods of time which I’m trying to change since the Milanese loop on my new watch is much more comfortable.
Yea, only take it off for cleaning and charging.
I don’t wear it to sleep.
The wrist alarm vibration is way less jarring than a loud siren going off. Way less traumatic way to wake up.
Sleep tracking is 1/3 the reason I bought it. I hope you sleep well.
I originally bought it with sleep tracking in mind but got a handle on my sleep quality and now it just charges while I sleep.
I use it for the silent alarm clock feature.
Nope. Wear it during the day. At night it’s charging & I wear an oura ring for sleep tracking.
Yes! I charge it when I commute to work or in the car on the way somewhere or just sitting around. I love the sleep tracking feature.
Except for the 2 hours every two days when I charge, and during my daily showers.
Yes. Charge it while driving
I wear it to sleep and then charge it while I shower and get ready for the day. It is fully charged when I leave for work or whatever other thing I am doing.
I have a couple Apple Watches. There is always one on my wrist.
May ask why you have multiple?
Not who you were asking, but I had a series 5, then got the Ultra. Apple offered me only $40 for the Series 5 so I kept it for a while to wear at home since it was smaller and lighter than the Ultra. Ended up giving it to my brother who broke his series 4.
Now I’m missing having a smaller watch so I’ve been looking to add a Series 8 to wear with long sleeves and sleep tracking. I like the Ultra for the beach/battery life.
I’ve considered just getting the SE, but I like the temp tracking on the Series 8.
Maybe one is older? I’ve heard some people say that after upgrading, they use the new watch for everyday use and the old one for sleep tracking.
Well, I am an older guy and I like the fall detection and heart rate monitoring features. I’m also a bit of a fanatic about closing my rings, with multiple watches I never miss a step. I also very rarely even pick up my iPhone anymore and tend to do all my interactions on an Apple Watch. I currently have an Ultra and a Series 9. The Ultra is my daily driver if I’m out running around town. The S9 is mainly for workouts, afternoons and evenings lounging around and for whenever my Ultra is on the charger. I do sleep monitoring wearing my Ultra (not quite as comfortable as the S9 would be for this task), but I have my action button set up to turn on the flashlight so that when I get up at night I don’t fall over my german shepherd.
