First of all, I like wearing a watch. If it wasn’t a Watch it would be something else. In my case I use it for a more reliable Siri experience with HomeKit devices. A HomePod in every room still doesn’t beat wearing a mic on my wrist. I do use all the health tracking features that are relevant to me. I love the sleep app and the functionality it adds when paired with the shortcuts app and focus modes (HomeKit automations for my morning alarm and morning routine). Apple Pay is a HUGE deal for me. I have left home without my iPhone and not been overly concerned but I only take my Watch Ultra off to charge it when I’m showering in the morning. If for some unimaginable reason I left home without it, I would absolutely have to go back and get it.

Unfortunately you can’t do that natively. The best you can do is have your activity rings and tapping that will open the activity app to see how many steps you’ve taken so far. If you want a step counter complication on your watch face you’ll need an app from the App Store. Just search for “steps complication”. That brought up a whole bunch of options.

Normal behaviour. The car’s screen is supposed to replace your phone while driving, not mirror it. You can still use your phone like normal as it’s not completely locked out while using CarPlay.

Check the system status page. Looks like there were plenty of issues today.

Status Check

I have a pair of Gen1 TV 4K and I find the cache clearing happens more often when the TV is the home hub. Probably using a bunch of memory for HKSV processing of objects/face recognition. The screen saver trick does help a bit.

My Phone app is buried in a folder on the second page of apps. Only time I ever use it is when someone makes the mistake of calling me and I have to check the transcript of the voicemail to see what it was about.

Definitely not new. This has been a feature for years.

Stock iOS calendar app works fine for all 14 of my calendars including several subscribed ones that I have.

The feature was removed. On the bright side, I’ve heard it’s back in the betas. Maybe there’s been enough backlash that Apple has realized what a stupid mistake it was to remove it in watchOS 10.

I know there’s a feature built into macOS for acquiring images from your phone. No third party apps required. Not sure if it works for video too. Might be worth a try looking around in QuickTime Player… I’m sure there has be something there. If I can stream a live video feed from my phone’s camera to my Watch and you can now use your phone as the camera for FaceTime video calls on an AppleTV then you must be able to do what you’re asking on a MacBook Pro!

Do you have “Smart rotate” turned on?

This isn’t new. The only thing that is new about this feature is that it can distinguish different pets by name the way it does with people instead of just a generic label “cat” or “dog”.

I haven’t tried it but I think it’s built into iOS when you setup a new iPhone. It asks you if you’re restoring from a backup of an existing iPhone or migrating from Android or setting up as new. Or something to that effect.

Edit: It’s an app made by Apple that you download from the Google Play store.

You can already do that with Focus Modes.

No you don’t. Just long press the notification and that brings up the keyboard to type your reply. Same goes for answering a message from the Lock Screen.
