*** Official September 7th Apple Event "Far Out" (18:00 BST) ***

So next year it’ll be a montage of babies who were conceived thanks to the ovulation feature of Apple Watch 8.

 

[robfosters]

Mrs will be all over this ovulation function

More mini Maccies on the way?

 

[Feek]

Presenting the Apple Watch as a life saving device is fairly disingenuous isn't it?

I genuinely wish I’d let mine contact the emergency services when I fell. It would have meant I didn’t just lay there by the side of the road waiting for someone to stop and help me.

They literally made her live through the actual crash again.

All of that effort for ~5 seconds of video. suppose they have the cash to burn.

My car already does this car crash notification stuff

"We developed a sensor fusion algorithm" - love it

 

[robfosters]

Crash detection.

This is like the most depressing tech gadget ever!

 

[Combat Fighter]

Only thing I want to know can the Apple Watch last at least week with one charge.

Until then I’m not interested.

I was always under the impression it needed to be charged daily. So it could never do sleep tracking as you had to charge it overnight.

 

[Robbo]

My car already does this, not a bad thing though.

TIL: Americans can’t pronounce Deidre correctly

I'm sure I've seen reports saying the heart defect detection stuff is quite ropey.

It's single probe vs 12 (i believe, was when i last had one) with a typical ECG machine which is why when i've looked at ECG watches they all have warnings a long the lines of "it may help to detect a defect/issue but you need to seek medical advice" et cetra.
I think that's why there is still some scepticism in the medical industry, plus false-positives could lead to more people in A&E for no reason.

Crash detection.

Surprised they couldn't offer the feature on phones

I charge mine in the shower in the morning, that’s all it needs.

Roaming is nice.

This lady looks like she’s presenting from underneath the Starship Enterprise

You got to be kidding, ovulation app with temperature sensor built into the Apple Watch 8. epic.

Serious crash detection auto call services, nice!

 

[lmfy2k]

no bigger batery on the watch 8? boo

 

[Stu999]

Do you watch owners sleep in it? Not sure if I’d like that.

 

[Stu999]

“I’ve fallen and I can’t get up”

 

[Feek]

Do you watch owners sleep in it? Not sure if I’d like that.

Yes.

 

[Stu999]

Snazzy trainers.

 

[squerble]

Do you watch owners sleep in it? Not sure if I’d like that.

Yep.

 

[Throrik]

Yeah, tracking sleep is a big benefit for me. Or tracking lack thereof.
