I just use their specific App. I think it works with Next Up in the TV app still. I don’t use that function though.

I think it simply comes down to Apple deciding that daily charging is okay and putting effort into other features.

• Apple Reminders for tasks and reminders.
• OurGroceries for shopping lists. Have been using it for many years now. And Reminders doesn’t scan barcodes.

Battery capacity really doesn’t have much to do with battery usage. Just how much the battery can hold compared to when it was new. I used to have a Series 4 with 83% capacity and it would last me 20 hours on WatchOS 10. I upgraded to a Series 9 and gave the 4 to my spouse. It might last them 12 hours but they have a lot more notifications activated on it and use it for Siri extensively.

Your usage, notifications, and background apps installed are what eat your battery. Unfortunately, the watch doesn’t seem to report the apps using the most power like other devices. This means you have to use trial and error to try and reduce usage the most.

Probably a pipe dream but my most wanted feature is blood glucose monitoring.

Works on my watch (series 9) but not on my iPhone (12 Pro).

I have not… I would be worried about the potential fine and jail time for making a frivolous emergency call. Yeah, I will probably just get a warning but I know there are potential penalties.

A lot of people seem to hate it. I think hate is extreme. I don’t really like the changes they made but have gotten used to them now.

Though, I wouldn’t mind if they allowed me to turn off widgets and return the control center to swipe up.
