 Watch Ultra

[Habrosus]

Yes. I receive msg notification on the default whatsapp app for my personal phone number.

For my work number on watchchat, so far I don't receive popup notification on my AWU. But I open the app to check from time to time. Have not played around with settings & not 100% sure do they support push notification for AW. But I'm suffice with clicking in & check once in awhile since I rarely get work msgs after work/weekends. Just in case only

So yes, 2 sets of WA accounts. Technically.

The default whatsapp on AW is mainly for replying only right? Cannot search & msg haha.

Ya, the default WhatsApp can only reply with AW, can't be used to initiate a chat. That's why I got the WatchChat and paid the $.

Will be great if we can get notifications from both WhatsApp and WatchChat when they're used for different numbers.

It's rubber?

TPU because it wraps around the bottom of the watch as well.

I don't like those hard plastic ones which wrap around the front only which may scratch the soft antennae bands when putting on or removing it.

I've tried but don't like those that wrap round part of the back as well, as it's not as versatile on a charger stand.

I came across this that has soft sides for those who're concerned with the possibility of scratching the watch, and a hard front for protection.

Not bad. I prefer using more branded cases for my watch and phone though

Ya. I use watchchat that is logged in my work whatsapp most of the time & on weekends esp. Can receive & send msg while phone is at home & I'm out shopping

But for sure you will need cellular on your watch or in my case, my personal phone that provide my AW cellular.

Can try out the free version first. If satisfied then pay one time $10 & support them haha!

Hi GTR and those who are interested, i tried and not able to use without phone. GTR, could it be that your personal phone is providing the cellular connection for your AW, thats why it works....i think

I emailed the watchchat developer and he confirmed that currently, watchchat cannot work without iphone. He is launching a beta version that supports cellular soon though.

Spigen Rugged Armor has arrived!

Mines here too!

Suits the color of my Nomad Sport band quite well!

I'm probably only going to use it for outdoor sports only, & upcoming ICT (Outfield)

 

[manofsorrows]

Just got a notification from nomad that my orange band is going to be shipped.

Gxgx! One tip when you get your band: Push the raised part before pushing your strap in. I read fb some ppl force it in then the locking part damaged

 

[Habrosus]

This comes with matching strap

Yeah cuz got alot of debating on awu fb group. I think some sotong self dmg the strap thing then blame Nomad for bad build quality 碰瓷 sia!

Angmohs very funny one lah.. Laugh at ppl for buying Nomad bands for USD$60-300. Then buy knockoff Apple bands & steel link bands for $20-100 when taobao/ali can get for $5-15

Got this guy keep promoting his shop called infinityloops, walau.. I click into his shop all taobao bands selling 10x price of taobao. Got ppl confront him why company is from US but shipped from China

I like that the strap is detachable, a separate part from the bumper. Smart design.

My first rugged armor was a Spigen for my AW7, which I was rather disappointed upon receipt. I found it difficult to put on, then looked at the box and saw the indication that it's for 45/44mm. To me, that 1mm difference plays a part whether it's really suitable for my 45mm watch. Can't find it around now, I could have given it to a friend who's the 44mm AW6.

That's when I searched and found those MiC rugged bumpers with strap attached, really made for 45mm. Gave my AW7 the G-Shock type of protection.

Now that Ringke has the sense to come up with such a design, definitely must support.

Happy 01012023, Ultramen!

I see a notification on my watch now, showing Happy New Year! with a slightly blurred icon. Or maybe blurred with my sleepy eyes.

Is this an Apple Watch thingy or one of those "do not click" scam? Am I the only one with this? How to get rid if so?

Not limited to the Ultra; also showed on the AW7 while it's synced overnight.

It's an interactive notification. When you click on it it will show fireworks on your watch face. I receive it on my Birthday as well.
