Watch 4+

The change to control center access, and the complete removal of access to favorite apps is a really big step backwards. What a terrible change. The previous arrangement: swipe up for control center, press the bar for access to favorite apps was perfect and now it’s ruined. Now you can only access either all apps—and excessively long list of apps, only a few of which are used, or you have to DOUBLE PRESS on the crown to access receipt used apps. First of all, double pressing is awkward at best. It’s not something that works well on a watch. And thx “recent” apps can be a long list that really is of little better use than the entire list. If I want recent ones, they’ll be on my watch face. Why did the watch engineers “fix” something that wasn’t broken. At least give us the option to select the old arrangement.

only gave it 5 stars so it gets filtered to someone who cares about their watch: DON’T update to 10.4– they took everything that was good about the apple watch (which was barley hanging on by a thread already). First my beef started when they removed the quarterly hepatic vibrations (so useful if you are trying to be time aware) but they removed it and shortly after they realized how much people used that function( even has some accessibility use-age). anyway they brought it back but with less options and a little refresh because of coarse they did. as time gone on i got used to it and saved my widgets accordingly to have 30/60min timers on standby because those helped me more and were easily accessible. now with the 10.4 update—> everything is laggy, super slow, all the buttons are weird now with special delays and effects and pre programmed presets.

sofar i will un install and hope for the best, i only update in the first place because it promised a much needed security update which seemed urgent

I love Shortcuts, I have been using it since it was Workflow. I liked Workflow better because you really learned to program with it from the ground up. Apple has really dumbed down Shortcuts in these latest versions for the masses in respect to really programming shortcuts from the ground up. However, I’m deeply disappointed, I bought an Apple Watch with the sole excitement of using Shortcuts on my Apple Watch and I have never been able to use Shortcuts on the actual Watch, “THEY WILL NOT SHOW UP ON THE WATCH” or under the actual Watch App list on the iPhone. This a known issue what gives? Each update, I’m hopeful this issue will be resolved and nope the Shortcuts Apps will not show up as an option to select in the Watch App and the Apple Watch keeps saying,No shortcuts you can add them in the Shortcuts App on your iphone, which are listed and designated for the Apple Watch, but don’t show up. There is a disconnect between the iPhone Shortcut App and the Watch App not letting the Shortcut App appear as a selection to be on the watch and the actual Apple Watch Shortcuts App. Just works- nah, It just doesn’t, please fix it Apple.

And to add, the Haptic Touch is too soft, please the increase the option to make it stronger, especially for alarms and waking up.
