  • Wait at least some months after a release, be it major (e.g. 10) or minor (e.g. 10.1 or even 10.0.2). If it is still not up to your standards, wait some more and repeat until either the problems are fixed or the apps are no longer supported or battery dies.

    Don’t listen to the doomsayers saying you need security patches or the people who keep regurgitanting shit like “apps seems snappier”, “it’s just indexing, give it time”, “it’s fine on my watch”. Both the new iOS and WatchOS are pathetic messes from a trillion dollar company.

    I’m someone with a recently bought used Series 7 on 9.6.2 and 85% battery health. The watch is on my wrist 23.5 hours per day and uses only 45% battery (~2% drain per hour on average basically). And I pretend to keep it that way so there’s no reason to update.
