Showering should be fine. It’s designed to be worn in open ocean swimming, so a shower shouldn’t be a concern. You can always activate the water lock feature before you shower if you’re concerned about damage.

Heart rate accuracy is pretty good. Actually, most of the sensors are. When I’m at the doctor I typically check my heart rate and blood oxygen levels on my watch against the nurse’s readings. It’s usually spot on or extremely close.

You can customize the heart rate notifications by setting your own high and low hr thresholds.

Be sure to manually activate fall detection. It isn’t on by default unless you’re 65 or older.

I have the Apple channel subscription to Paramount+ and it’s kind of a mess. The live feed doesn’t work and the sports content doesn’t work. I still need to have the app on my AppleTV to access NWSL games, for example.

There are no legit rumors about a new model. The current model is better than ANY streamer on the market. Buy one and you’ll never regret it. Wait for rumors and you’ll be waiting forever.

Are you logged in on the new phone with the same Apple ID?
