@thurrott still only used because MS is a complete idiot when trying to apply security rules to apple watches...

For those wondering last time I had my work's exchange hooked to my phone. It took work's change your password every 90 days and applied it to my watch passcode....Now keep in mind the built in keyboard of the apple watch is TINY and you can barely read things without dragging your phone out anyway more than short text or summaries. #Microsoft #Outlook #AppleWatch

I'm considering writing a #Blog post about how #Technology can be more #Accessible and #Inclusive for people with #Disabilities and #ChronicIllness. One example that comes to mind is the need for more personalized customization in health tracking features on #Wearables like the #AppleWatch.

For me, the exercise and stand goals aren’t realistic due to my health limitations. On bad days, the constant reminders to move can feel discouraging rather than motivating. While there’s the option to turn notifications off entirely, I still want to track my movement or standing progress in a more flexible way. It would make a huge difference if the activity rings and goals could be fully customizable to accommodate individual abilities and needs.

To my fellow #Disabled and #ChronicPain warriors: What other areas do you think tech could be more inclusive? Whether it’s device features, apps, or software design, I’d love to hear your thoughts! Would you also be okay with me including your name or username and a quote from you in the blog post? I want to uplift your voices as part of the conversation.

Although this post is meant to elevate disabled voices, developers, designers, and usability experts are welcome to join the discussion and learn how to create more inclusive tech.

Let’s brainstorm ways to make tech work better for everyone! 🌟 Thank you in advance for sharing your insights!

If anyone has experience w/ #Apple Watch and sharing "Health Alerts":

Daughter is having some heart issues. Going to the cardiologist but meantime I want to give her my old Apple Watch (series 5 but it works perfectly, even has decent battery). She has an iPhone.

Hoping that the heartbeat monitoring (when her heartbeat goes up to much) can signal to my phone. We can do the "Apple Health Connect" but i'm a little nervous since i've never seen this in person before.

How in the heck has Apple made groceries a top tier feature in #Reminders, but there’s no way to open it directly on #AppleWatch?

You used to be able to launch the Reminders app from a complication and select a list. But now the Reminders complication only shows or opens Due Today making you navigate within the watch app to open a different list every time. That’s a dumb regression.

An everyday capitalism-related warning: if you’re planning on buying an Apple Watch online with the solo loop, don’t. You can’t just send the strap back if there’s a problem with it (mine caused contact dermatitis after a few day’s use). They’ll happily take the whole order back though because, well, fuck you, I guess. Anyway, caveat emptor and all that. And your daily reminder that trillion-dollar corporations are all asshats.

Right, as you were.

A jury in the United States of America 🇺🇸 has found that Masimo’s smartwatches have infringed two Apple Watch patents.

This doesn’t change the availbilty of the blood oxymetre feature in the USA.
