I know about the force touch clear all notification function but sometimes, you just don't want to delete all and this can come in useful

sorry all, what i was trying to say is one cannot delay all messages at once but instead have to do so one by one.

when Force Touch, the New Message option appears.

hope to be able to delete all with one swipe instead of individually.

Somehow my accelerometer and haptics motor are not working well. The watch tells me to stand and then says I achieved it all while I am laying in bed!

Apple is seeing if they can do an express replacement for me.

Oddly, when I called them then they said my watch was JP stock even though it is from Vivocity.

Don't have this issue on mine, when I'm sitting down it reminds me to either stand or a notification that I'm nearly achieving my goal.

Mine is ok but the heart rate monitor sucks. Sometimes it shows my heart rate as 57, sometimes 107. A bit crazy. Haha!

Depends on what u're doing then. Usually when measuring, u should not be moving and make sure the watch is snuggly on yr wrist so that the green light can register a constant contact with the skin.

The watch needs to be snugly tighten on your wrist at all times for the HR monitor to produce a consistent result.

Hmmm there was a report early after the first batch that watches had haptic issues. Seems like they are the Asian batch. Surprise that JP has this batch given that they have very tight QC.

To take accurate heart rate you have to keep still just like you would in a doctors office taking BP. Similar and watch nicely snugged.

Like that jialat! I think the convention chest strap much better compared to the optical sensor

My experience with the Apple Watch HR sensor is very good. It's very accurate and results very consistent as well. I've been using the Garmin Forerunner heart rate chest straps, and also the Mio Fuse optical HR sensor. In my experience, the Apple Watch HR sensor is much more accurate than the Mio Fuse Optical sensor (its optical HR technology used and licensed out to many incl TomTom, Garmin, Adidas), and the Garmin HR chest-strap.

The problem with other optical HR sensor design like Mio or Fitbit in my opinion is mainly the environmental light leaks contaminating the measurement, and hence the snug/tight fit needed to get good reliable readings. For the case of chest-straps the conductivity from skin to strap is important. I have a slender and bony concave wrist (the concave groove created between the radius and ulna bone), and hence it's easy for light leaks to happen. But the Apple Watch's concave sensor design fits snugly onto my wrist without the need to tighten the strap too much. In fact I noticed no matter how I twisted my wrist, the bulging and curved Apple optical sensor back is always in full contact and coverage with the skin, unlike Mio's or Fitbit's flat back design, skin contact can be intermittently lost and light leaks from the green LED can be seen. Well that's my experience so far after 3 weeks of usage.
