Awesome WatchOS concept!

Out of all of the features in there, I just want the ability for the watch to change watch face dependent on time and location.

Yeah ace that, hope apple sees it or is working basically on that idea.

Again, you know this is the series 3 thread? Not the series 4 or the random rumours about the next OS thread

I can't tell if mine is cracked or just scratched from various DIY tasks

Mine hasn’t cracked. This is for cracked screens or they are replacing all of them regardless?

Interesting. My series 2 has a crack like that in the picture (all around the screen). Wonder if that's worth sending in. I ended up buying a S3 but I'm sure I could find the S2 it's in a drawer somewhere

I should say the crack actually made the screen fall out! it's only tethered in with a cable now

 

[Feek]

Wonder if that's worth sending in.

Yes, of course.

 

[Junglist]

Yes, of course.

I think the rest of the screen has probably got a few cracks but doesn't hurt to try. if they fix it then i'd trade it and my s3 in for a newer model

Hah - that’s exactly what happened to my S3!

I took it off one night, went to bed and woke up in the morning with a think crack all around the edge ... glass screen then came off but still worked.

ASP said they couldn’t help because there was other damage on the watch (whilst true not more marks than you’d expect from a watch worn on your wrist daily for a year!)

I ended up buying a V4 and kept this one in a drawer - will try to get it replaced now

For those of you that have your "Activity Ring" notifications on. Is there a way to disable them during a workout?

I've been using the native Activity Workout app recently which has been decent, but it keeps vibrating which makes me think i've hit either the next mile or a pacing goal. However when i look it's just telling my i've hit my move goal or something like that. It's a bit annoying and never used to happen with the Strava app.

I've seen i can automatically disable Notifications during workouts, but i'd like to still get Text/Calls come through in case of an emergency.

I don't think you can turn them off just when you're in a workout but you can turn them off generally. Using the app on the iPhone, go to My Watch / Activity and then you have a slider for "Goal Completions".

 

[Martynt74]

Cheers, i quite like the Goals and it does help on non-running days. It's just annoying when i'm at mile 5 or so and it's pinging me to say i'm at 200% of my daily move goal!

With Strava they just came through at the end.
