I work night shift, so neither lol. Updating my watch is a PIA. Every time there’s an update I get an alert, while at work, that it didn’t update because it’s not on the charger. Well no fucking shit, I’m working at that time. Then when I get home I can’t update it because it’s not at least 50% charged. Son of a… I put in on the charger and sleep but of course it doesn’t update because it’s not the middle of the night and I’m not awake when it finally reaches 50% to tell it to update, and then I wake up I grab it and go because by then I have forgotten. Wash rinse repeat. Updates usually take at least a week on my end. Sure wish I it would be change what time it auto updates, not everyone is asleep at night.
Agreed. I work during the day, but I charge in the morning. Apple has technology that can finish charging our phones, watches, and even headphones just before we’ll need them, thanks to machine learning. Yet, it can’t learn that I charge in the morning so it should update then? What’s this obsession with only updating at night?
I wish there was a way to sync apps up better to my sleep schedule. I hate how activity, my to do list (Things 3), and other apps consider the new day to be at midnight. If I exercise after midnight during one waking cycle and before midnight the next waking cycle, it counts as the same day of exercise. At midnight, my to-dos from the next waking cycle clutter my current list. My phone and watch want to update during the middle of my waking cycle.
Just let me set the “rollover to the next day” function to the middle of my sleep cycle. Like noon. Obviously the calendar date should roll over at midnight which is a little wonky. But you can always mark to-do dates and exercise dates as the date your wake cycle starts. Like if I exercise between noon on 11/25 and noon on 11/26, just mark that I exercised on 11/25.

I feel your pain fellow creature of the night.
