What am I missing here, seems the same sort of useless watchface? I thought it was supposed to be more dynamic and machine learning. I don’t even see Carrot as a card in my current face? Let alone my favorite sports team scores. I thought it was supposed to learn as he used it and have suggestions for playlists when you’re at the gym, or able to access the Siri Shortcuts? The most basic thing that drives me nuts is not knowing I have a new txt, unless I have that complication selected, why can’t it show up as a card?

Did you enable Carrot as a source for the Siri watch face? Anything (most at least) that feeds into that watch face I thought had to be enabled in the Watch app. For instance, I disable Photos and News as sources to the Siri face because I hold no value in them.

I do agree though. It is annoying not being able to see new text messages without either swiping down to notification center, or having the imessage complication there to show you how many unread imessages you have.

I do wish that we are able to customize the first (topmost) card on the siri watch face to show certain things all the time. Or as you mention, for the card to tell you if you have a new imessage.

I commonly switch between the siri watch face and the modular watch face (this tells you wayyy more info than the siri watch face IMO).

Yeah the Siri face seems like it could have a lot of potential. I do use it. I think it's handy on days when I have a lot of calendar appointments, or when I'm traveling. As Dormammu said, I keep it next to my other high info watch faces like Modular so I can easily swipe between them.

Thanks. I do have Carrot and Siri Shortcuts enables. But even my calendar appointments aren’t showing up, maybe there is a bug?

Seems like this could have huge potential and even seeing the demonstration Apple has done with it. Sadly this was one of the big things I looked forward too in iOS 5 and its an extreme disappointment

And you see the items on your native watchOS calendar?

I seem to remember having some issues like this. I toggled off the data sources for a while and then toggled them back on. Try restarting the watch and iPhone as well.

Hmm that worked for Carrot but not for Calendars or Favorite Teams or Siri Shortcuts
