Less use of my Apple Watch

[Victor Mortimer]

I wear it exactly the same - never, because I neither have nor want one. I stopped wearing a watch when I got a cell phone that had a clock on it, and I can't stand having one on my wrist now.

Thanks. I looked and couldn’t find reference of what you mentioned. If you come across that specific ‘kit‘, feel free to let me know what it is. A yearly fee for convenience, (assuming the reviews/stability is good), I wouldn’t mind paying for something that offers a quality experience to enhance the usage for the watch.

Viper Smartstart is the app. There is a phone app & a watch app. Not sure how to link to an App Store app, but if you just search for 'Viper SmartStart' (it's by 'Directed').

I ended up not getting a remote start, but as I recall there are several Viper remote starters, one with a 1 way remote & (at least) one more that included a two way remote as well. The 2 way is nice as you get confirmation that it worked or not. Although I suppose if you are using your watch or phone, there's really not a need for a separate remote.

It looks like there is at least one more system that offers it as well, Compustar Drone. I don't know anything about it, but did see an article about it.

Ahhh yes, Viper. Totally familiar with them, I don’t know why I overlooked that at Best Buy. I thought you meant something else, but anyways. I’m actually finalizing a new car here in the next few weeks (Either a Raptor or SHO), and I’d be totally interested to have that type of capability from the Apple Watch. Like I said, all my cars have remote start, but to do it from my Apple Watch without having my key fob with me all the time, offers more than enough convenience where I could justify the price. I just need the terms of reliability/stability with the app, functionality and overall support if there’s any issues. That’s what’s most important to me. I’ll do some ‘back-end’ research to see if any other users have more feedback. Thanks again.

I’ve had a couple of cars with keyless ignition and not a fan. In fact I check they have a key now when buying. I used to find myself leaving the fob in the centre console when walking away and accidentally leaving the car unlocked! I’m not geared for that lol. Cool feature on AW for those that want it though.

Just curious why are you on the Apple Watch message board? I mean I have no interest in iMacs so I simply don't go on that message board.

They have the best faces IMHO, enjoy!!

Here’s mine:

I think that watch face looks so good with AOD.

I don’t have the option of working from home because I work in health care. Nonetheless I can still find uses for it around the house, finding my phone, controlling my Apple TV, telling the time, adjusting the audio on my HomePod, sleep tracking.

Why wouldn't someone want to wear their watch everyday, despite staying home so much? It really isn't that hard to put on when you wake up, and is still convenient even if you don't have a busy workflow anymore.

I've been wearing mine every day since I got it, I only taking it off to charge (which is when I shower, so I'd take it off either way). I love this watch.

I’ve had one ever since launch day on 2015 so it’s a habit for me to put it on in the morning.
