I just realised, the fact the Apple Watch is on your wrist and uses accelerometers to measure your fitness and whatnot, for those who use sign language frequently (like d/Deaf people such as myself or sign language interpreters), I imagine the Watch would interpret my communication with other people as exercise due to the wide variety of movements that are required to communicate in sign language. Perhaps there should be a setting on the Watch in Accessibility that those who sign, can check, so the sensor becomes less sensitive?

Thoughts?
