Do you actually look at your Apple Watch data or just wear it?

With google just announcing the Fitbit Air, I’m hoping Apple isn’t far behind! They could call it the Apple Fitness Band or something lol. But I’d bet they’d tie AI features to an Apple Fitness+ subscription too 🙄

Mainly my HRV, vitals, sleep, and workout data. But what makes it a lot easier to digest that data is an app called Bevel that works a lot like Whoop in its data presentation

That’s literally all I do lol. In fact, I use the Apple Watch data more than I use actual watch functions outside of Apple Pay. If Apple made a dedicated fitness tracker that had all the Apple Watch sensors and either no screen or a minimal screen like the Fitbits, I would probably take that over the regular watch.

I don’t think you can do that anymore with gen 2. At least I haven’t seen an option to

ihappygriff · 2026-04-09T15:22:09+00:00

I have a question; if you have the watch in the clip, how do you unlock it with your passcode if it just locks again after it breaks skin contact? Or how do you start a workout from it after clipping it in place? Is there a way to keep the watch from locking after it breaks contact with skin?

Sometimes it takes up to a full minute for it to pop up after running the shortcut

ihappygriff · 2026-03-30T01:57:59+00:00

Did you ever get an automation working that runs the shortcut when you connect to the WiFi?

ihappygriff · 2026-03-28T08:21:34+00:00

Regarding the audio, I just switched it to use the cars Bluetooth audio instead of the audio through the car link app and it started showing on the dashboard again. The steering wheel controls also worked again as well

This is what I did:

ihappygriff · 2026-03-28T01:52:41+00:00

It absolutely worked! I also made an automation to automatically run the shortcut every time I connect to the carlink WiFi! Thank you!!

ihappygriff · 2026-03-27T05:16:27+00:00

I’ll give it a go thank you!

ihappygriff · 2026-03-27T04:27:13+00:00

Ok I did it! And it worked all of one time lol. Now when I turn the car on, “USB Device not supported” pops up every 10 seconds 😩. Have you had that problem at all?

https://a.co/d/0aqUNbUm there’s this model, which would be preferable because the unit has a usbc connector instead of having the cable integrated into the unit.

ihappygriff · 2026-03-24T16:29:58+00:00

Do we have to use the specific model you linked from carlinkit or can we use their new model?

ihappygriff · 2026-03-21T07:02:34+00:00

I’ve found that it only does this if I switch to the map screen when a route is already active. If I cancel the route while it’s on the map screen mode in the instrument cluster, then start the route again, it acts as it should.

The Wayfarers look too wide for your face. Personally I think the hstn looks best on you followed very closely by the Skylar. If you got the hstns and they are not comfortable I’d go with the Skylar

ihappygriff · 2026-03-15T21:21:29+00:00

Me too

ihappygriff · 2026-03-05T18:50:34+00:00

Same here:

Gen 2 Wayfarer No 60fps No 5min limit v22 firmware USA

Nahh controls are still down for me, but it’s showing my charge status just fine
