And the best improvement is: Press the crown to get to the "home screen" with all the little round app icons. Now do a firm press and you get an option to show the apps in a scrolling list view!
Tested with my iPhone 7 I'm not sure if I can get more with iPhone wifi...

Honestly, I just want to press ONE button to end a run. Two button press or touching the screen is not ideal which is why I still have my Garmin.
Mine is still showing 3.2.3 your software is up to date.. At least you got it to show up.
Pretty sure that was a joke. It has to do with the slow transfer over bluetooth, the Watch App on your phone downloads it directly to the watch, so it takes a while unfortunately

Download is about an hour. At least a half hour to install. So, at least an hour and a half. Not fun.Pretty sure that was a joke. It has to do with the slow transfer over bluetooth, the Watch App on your phone downloads it directly to the watch, so it takes a while unfortunately
19 minutes remaining? The best mine has gotten to is 53 minutes.
Stop asking and download it yourself to find out. What difference will it really make, since you'll still need to download it if you don't have it anyway?
Mine said 25 hours initially. Now I only have 5 minutes left.
After resting the watch, the update showed up and is now downloading. Could just be coincidental timing...or maybe it needed the reset.
3 hours ugh... good thing I'm at home and don't have to be anywhere but still.. what to do?! I still have to download and install iOS 11 on my iPad also but I feel this will slow this from downloading if I go and do that.
Makes me confused WHY doesn't Apple use an ad-hoc WiFi connection between WatchOS and iOS to update teh AW?! is the slow download and install the same for AW Series 2?
Not all the features are available on series 0 from my experience with the betas. Resting rate and walking rate don’t work with the series 0.
Apple won't admit it, but that whole little round icon was a UI experiment that looked cool but not as functional as a scroll list.
It almost seems like it would make more sense on a round face, and the scroll list would be better for the current form factor.
