    "Blue collar" jobs and the watch

    This is my stance as well. I don't want to worry about an expensive device if I don't think it'll hold up well. Where I won't have issues with dents and scratches, peeling paint is another story. If someone can confirm the finish holds up well, I may not have to hesitate much longer in...

    "Blue collar" jobs and the watch

    My KS Pebble is holding up really well also; I've put tremendous pressure on the bands, I've banged it up against things, I've ran my dirty hands/gloves over the screen as I pulled my sleeves back to check the watch. I hate babying my products as well, and as you mentioned in a reply, I like...

    "Blue collar" jobs and the watch

    Hmm. You think so? In your opinion, would the Rose or Yellow gold be more durable?

    No heavy machinery for us, at the moment. Good point though.

    "Blue collar" jobs and the watch

    I would like to be able to wear an Apple Watch as I work. Anyone here work in the trades with lots of potential hazards to the watch's overall look? I'm a lineman by trade; climb hydro poles, play in the dirt, work with wires. I would like to know if anyone has put their Apple Watch through the...

    2 Apple Watches, 1 iPhone. Can you swap back and forth between the two watches?

    But does unpairing mean the intentional act of unpairing the phone or watch? Or does that include a "loss of connection"? Hope that made sense. Having two watches (assuming one can afford it) would definitely be handy for some people.

    2 Apple Watches, 1 iPhone. Can you swap back and forth between the two watches?

    People in the Pebble community turn off the watch they want "unpaired" then turn on the watch they want "paired" up. Not sure if this would work in the case of reauthorizing specific watches.

    No sleep tracking! Really?!?! What about 3rd party apps?

    I do. It's more convenient to lift my wrist to see if I can afford a few more winks. It also acts as a silent alarm since I need to wake up as early as 4am with two little ones in the house.

    Using Apple Watch as Wake Up Alarm

    I think you may have settled my dilemma. When I heard of the Apple Watch, using it as an alarm in order to allow everyone else to sleep, was my original intent for use. I may just go with a Pebble after all and save a couple hundred dollars.

    Hyperlapse's image stabilization

    Not sure how it would fare in a more "professional" type of shoot, but it seems, for the average Joe / Jane, it's something that should be looked into.

    Hyperlapse's image stabilization

    Instagram Hyperlapse stabilization - YouTube Apologies if this was posted before. I just came across this and thought it would benefit those that use their iPhones as their primary video camera.

    iOS 8.0.2 released. Feedback/bugs

    If that's the case, that's unfortunate. Never had to do that with the previous iOS builds and I always had orientation lock on since I rarely watch videos on my phone. Also, it isn't always repeatable, though others have reported that opening the camera app in landscape also causes this issue.

    iOS 8.0.2 released. Feedback/bugs

    I just noticed that the camera orientation would get stuck a certain way when I have orientation lock on. In this picture, I'm holding the phone in landscape, but the camera is in portrait mode. the resulting picture is sideways when holding the phone upright. I mentioned this to my...

    Odd. The options just showed up.
