Operating Temperature

[KPOM]

From the online user guide:

Operating temperature Apple Watch is designed to work best in ambient temperatures between 32° and 95° F (0° and 35° C) and be stored in temperatures between -4° and 113° F (-20° and 45° C). Apple Watch can be damaged and battery life shortened if stored or operated outside of these temperature ranges. Avoid exposing Apple Watch to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. If the interior temperature of Apple Watch exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example, in a hot car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may experience the following as it attempts to regulate its temperature:

I guess those of us who get 4 seasons might need to be a little careful with the watch during the winter.

Winter, ha! How can you work outside in the summer anywhere in South? Now I'm scared to wear it in Houston - indoor temp 65, humidity 30; outdoor temp 100, humidity 99!

And 95 degrees is lower than body temp....

My iPhone 6 shutoff 3x this winter (NYC area) when out walking the dog for extended period.

I was wondering about this sort of thing. I know compact fluorescent lights have trouble working when it's cold in the garage. I was curious to see how the Apple Watch handled direct sunlight and extreme temperature ranges. I guess time will tell.

You're going to be wearing it on your arm, probably touching your skin if not close to it. It will always be getting heat from your body.
