Wow, these videos are incredible! The 3-hour one was mind-blowing, and now this one is just as impressive. You’re an absolute gem! I appreciate you doing the work and teaching us, so I don’t have to! Keep up the amazing work!
I was running last month and an errant tree branch got my head. I was bleeding out on the sidewalk and used my AWU2 to call 911. I needed 7 staples. I’ll be using the check in feature from now on!
I just pre ordered the ultra 2 satin black. I’ve never owned an Apple Watch before, this is all so overwhelming lol I’m excited to learn everything. Thank you for this incredible video you got a new subscriber.
I have the Apple Watch Ultra and i have never been more happy with a watch and with os11 it just made me love it even more. Being able to schedule what goal i want for each day is great for me and one of the best additions.
It would be cool that if you started one of those hikes from maps, that is also automatically launched the workouts app and then showed you the route, but also added information about the workout.
Great video and I'm excited about the vitals app the most and the sharing your outdoor walks I walk my dog late night so this would be helpful to send to my gf Thanks for the video
I might be missing something But this is your second video I’ve watched and I think you’re missing out on a great opportunity for an affiliate link on your watch bands. You should definitely include them. At least mention what they are so we can find them. Great videos I’m subscribing.
Is there a way to get messages to NOT delete from phone after deleting from watch? Must have changed during this update? I don’t mind have many on the phone but I like to keep watch cleaned up. Thanks
What watch are you wearing? I see you have blood oxygen in your sleep numbers. Is your watch one of the ones that didn’t loosed blood oxygen. I want a new watch but won’t get one because I like the blood oxygen feature. I know that it isn’t perfect but I still like it.
Great video! A friendly tip regarding your audio - you might want to put a de-esser plugin on at around 6-8kHz. That should up the quality even more 👌🏼
You can see multiple timers on WatchOS 10, you just press the back button. I really don’t get why Apple thought it’s a good idea to have a bunch of pre-defined timers that can’t be deleted. And once you pin a bunch of timers, you can’t rearrange them.
I don’t have a Apple Watch, but this is a fun entertaining video to watch and congratulations and I am proud of you making that three hour film movie. You really deserve an Oscar for this.❤❤
Hello Brandon , I want to ask you what is better to buy, is it the iPhone 15 pro or the standard 16. Me personally I was going to get the 15 pro but after watching the event and a lot of reviewers I decided the buy the standard 16. I took my decision but I want to know your opinion?
Hello. I bet Brandon is quite busy with the new macOS, iPadOS videos so incase he doesn’t reply, here’s my two cents, as a 15 Pro owner of 1 year. I’m gonna keep it simple. If you are looking to shoot professional videos and photos, take the 15 Pro. Enables to you to record videos in Log which will lead to much better looking footage, but you have to work on it in your editing software, to make it look good. Same with Raw photos. I shoot a lot of raw photos that I tinker with later for hours. If that’s not something that you intend to do, then get the 16. You get the capture button, newest chip, slightly better neural unit. For me personally, the 15 Pro would be a nobrainer out of the two, because it has those two features which are super important to me. If they are not important to you, get the 16. Either way I predict you’re going to love it. I’ve always disliked phones, but owning the 15 Pro has been delightful. Shot over 4Tb of footage over the last year with it and going strong. The 16 looks juicy, lots of new features and a unique design. Enjoy!
Sleep focus and scheduling is something I wish was optional. Sometimes I fall asleep before I’m scheduled to. Nap detection is cool, but I was really hoping that sleep focus wouldn’t be needed to track stages anymore.
Same here. I’m a night shifter but I switch over to a daywalker when I’m off and sometimes I don’t get to leave work on time so I may do a 13-14 hour shift which in turn skews when I actually get to crawl into bed.
Wow! Hey Brandon! I just finished watching the iOS 18 Movie and am now on to this! I truly appreciate the dedication and the amount of work you put into creating these videos for us viewers. I’ve been watching you for years now, and I can’t wait to see what you come up with next. By the way, I used writing tools to help me write this comment, haha!
I have an SE watch so some of the features aren't going to be for me. But I love the hikes addition to maps. We live in Hot Springs National Park and we do a lot of hikes. This is a game changer for making sure we don't get lost.
“Remote” does not seem to be able to control itunes anymore. This is a huge disappointment as I use it daily to control the music in my workshop. Why would Apple remove a fearure that worked flawlessly? Any suggestions for a workaround or alternative?
New watches can play music and podcasts. What i dont get is older models can take phone calls through speakers but cant play music. Just sounds like an excuse to sell the new ones
Hello. I have an Ultra 2 version for the United Arab Emirates. At the moment, my oxygen sensor is working. If I upgrade to WATCHOS 11 will it work or not?
Great video, thank you for sharing! How do you change the size of the step count / step distance card to the size in your video? Mine take up the whole row. Thank you!
That was a great video when I loved it. One minor comment is that I am not sure that you really differentiated the features that would be available on the new Apple Watch and the other watches. That would be helpful. Otherwise this is a fantastic video. Thank you.
The se is the budget version so it should never ever get the same updates or functionality that the more premium versions have, you chose to get the cheaper watch so Apple aren’t at fault for anything, as the saying goes if you want the best you have to pay for it, I’m sure you’ll find a way.
Why did they remove the ability to control audiobooks that are playing on my iPhone ? I love being able to pause and play from my watch instead of digging out my phone
Is there a way to use the assistive touch feature without the hideous highlighter showing the option it is on? It's particularly annoying on the watch face screen where it shows the obnoxious circle around the complication on the an otherwise clean face.
Since watchOS 10, I have been having problems with my first generation AirPods. As soon as the music exceeds 80 dB, either the left or the right one constantly interrupts and resumes the music. I have already described it several times in the Apple Bug Report, but it is never addressed. I am slowly getting really angry with Apple 🤬
Thanks for the great reviews, info, and updates as always!! What band is that you’re using? Haven’t had any luck finding it yet and I think it looks great!
No mention of the Explorer watchface getting removed? I used that one pretty much every day. Pretty crazy for them to remove customization options when they're already so limited.
the indoor/outdoor for hockey was so confusing when I went to start my watch last night. I selected indoor because the icon matched what I was doing (ice hockey) ... but now I'm curious how it will track if I select outdoor. Will I get a map of me skating in circles with total distance skated? ... interesting!
Just a head up. On the nap tracking. Everything I’ve tested and seen it only tracks it if you sleep for an hour or more. So it’s not true nap tracking. Since normal naps are on the 20-30 min range
But have they fixed the glitch where at some point during the day the stand and exercise goals disappear from the complications on the face and it only shows your move goal?
You can still get full screen now playing like on watchos 10 automatic. You have to access on your watch: Settings, Smart Stack, Live Activities, Apps for multimedia and then choose "app" option on automatic start option. If you get smart stack, you should get the new way that you mention on your video.
Is there a way to change the clock face in the top right when in the Smart Stack mode? Yours is showing a digital clock but mine always shows analog, which is just a bit slower to read when you’re glancing down.
Which Apple Watch are you installing watchOS 11 on? ⌚
already got it on my series 7
series 10 when it gets here
i bought an apple watch se 2nd gen last week. it was a good deal.
On my watch 8, but getting the 10 this weekend.
Apple Watch Series 8
Bruh I’m still watching the iOS movie and he already made another movie for watchOS 😭😂
🤣
sameeee
Same, I have about an hour left on iOS. Taking a short break and nailing this one down in the meantime 😂
This is actually so funny 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂 facts
Update: Sleep Apnea detection is now live!
Will you still receive it if you are on the watchOS 11 and iOS 18.1 developer beta?
No way! 😮
That’s awesome! 🎉
Will it be on the series 7?

Auto sleep tracking doesn’t seem to be working for me. My sleep schedule is turned on for night time. Should it be for my naps to be recorded?
It would be cool that if you started one of those hikes from maps, that is also automatically launched the workouts app and then showed you the route, but also added information about the workout.

Dedication is unreal 😊
I will always have an Apple watch. It told me also that i was sick, i went to the emergency room and i was having an issue.. it saved my life...
Does the speaker use for podcast and music get exposed for other devices with OS11 or is it’strictly for watch10?
Do naps change your vitals outlier?
Say if I get a sleep outlier in vitals, but take a nap later, will the outlier change?
Is there a way to get messages to NOT delete from phone after deleting from watch? Must have changed during this update? I don’t mind have many on the phone but I like to keep watch cleaned up. Thanks
Can Apple Watch SE detect if I am going to fall sick beforehand or does it require skin temperature and blood oxygen sensors (which the SE lacks)?
What watch are you wearing? I see you have blood oxygen in your sleep numbers. Is your watch one of the ones that didn’t loosed blood oxygen. I want a new watch but won’t get one because I like the blood oxygen feature. I know that it isn’t perfect but I still like it.

Thanks for the tip!
i think Double Tap is the most underrated feature.
Should I do it on my Ultra 2 or will my battery performance be worse?
I’d say: always update , because there can be security updates in the new firmware. Any problems will be ironed out later.
@@mikaelbiilmann6826 Okay -doing it now. Thanks for the input.

You can see multiple timers on watchos 10. You just have to hit the back button after you set the timer
The goals features will really help my OCD.

I decided to make the move and buy a watch turns out I like having the watch think about getting the new one if I stay with iPhone
finished the ios and watchos videos, now waiting for the IpadOS :), Thank you
The watch face on your ultra watch is it only available for the ultra watch only ??
Your watch looks terrific with that band.

15:37 How does this impact for watches that no longer have the Blood Oxygen feature?
Does Shazam actually work on the watch? I’ve never once been able to get it to recognize a song on my iPhone.

For double tapping to scroll, don't we have to touch the app to start it first?
