10 Reasons Why Old People Wear an Apple Watch

Morrie Reece, a retired 30 year Apple Senior Executive, and his wife Sue give ten reasons senior citizens might want to wear an Apple watch.

[@dwnwind]

As a senior, I fell fracturing my right hip and wrist. At the time of the incident no one was going to be home for over an hour. I was lying on the ground, unable to move my right side. I was able to use my Apple Watch. I was able to communicate with emergency services within seconds. The Apple Watch was critical in saving time and treatment.

Sir/Ma'am, Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and experience with the community. I'm doing the research prior to buying watches for my parents (mid 70's). God bless.

Very informative..Thanks

[@marydoo7311]

Thank you.

[@Linusrox123]

Oh, THANK You, you two! I have found my Alexa device very helpful because I always have my hands full and get distracted ... so I hate to use my iPhone. This is a wonderful aid for the of us who don't want to take extra steps, or have little time left to waste when we should be enjoying life! Thanks again!

[@gerardreneaux690]

Fantastic video ,first of all I must say God bless this good looking ,happy couple ,very well explained I know of people who have a watch like this and do not know the features it has and how to use them Stay safe

[@phonepup06]

Very cool! Fall detection is an amazing feature for just about everyone, but especially those that are more susceptible to breaking bones or further injury from a fall Overall, the Apple Watch is a great health/wellness, convenience, and safety device.

This is 2023 but just saw your channel. Just got my Apple Watch and your tips are very helpful - especially using Siri! Thanks!

[@janett9848]

Sent this to my grandma thanks 😊

[@suemiller4897]

Wow, I am so happy to have found you. Thanks so much for the video and information…you are both amazing! What size watch do you have? Thanks again!

[@firmbutton6485]

Nice video, nice and slow and simple! Very clear:-)

[@faengelm]

Very well done. Have you found it frustrating that you can't remove some of the icons on the watch for apps you never use? I am only able to remove certain ones, but I would like to show only the ones I use. I use the list mode for a less cluttered screen, but still have to wade through apps I'll never use

[@WritingRebel82]

I have an Apple Watch Ultra and this past Monday my ankle rolled and I started going down the stairs. My watch picked it up and asked if I was fine.

[@marybethdimarco3215]

Thanks for sharing all the great features. When you’re not at home, how do you handle privacy when dictating to Siri?

[@firmbutton6485]

I just bought my parents who are 74 both a series 8

[@thedrey100]

Great video just got a Appel watch . I am 70 you both look great for your age 😃🇬🇧

[@morriereece5007]

Thanks....kid 😎

[@TubeYouTakashi]

I strongly agree about opinions. At least Apple Watch like devices ( Apple Watch is the best ). To my love about 71 yrs old who never were Wrist watch since young told me to buy apple watch just before 72 yrs birthday, I bought as Birth present, but I am not sure to use. Since then 3 mo' wearing everyday at least 8-10 hrs to check health, activity, etc,.. I believes that more Senior recognize to use at least Apple Watch like devices. Thank you.

[@paulosgood77]

Thanks for the video. Perhaps you should have mentioned that the watch is not stand alone. A lot of my senior friends are interested but they don't have an iPhone.

[@morriereece5007]

you're absolutely right.....

[@wizerdjuice9589]

@@morriereece5007 could be stand alone once set up if you get the LTE? When your wife said hey Siri my iPad responded.

[@trishellis462]

I set my grandma’s up with my iPhone and then for $10/month on Verizon it has its own phone number for the watch.

[@WilliamIsCool15]

You can get the lte version. Then no iPhone is needed to use

[@jackbourassa2420]

Using it as a standalone means shorter battery life.

[@rafaelalvarenga8067]

This is the most wholesome video I’ve ever watched in this unholy platform.

[@janetfreeman1375]

In Canada a cyclist had a road accident , all injured people were unconscious, the cyclists Apple Watch contacted 911 and saved their lives !!!

[@coolicewolf8642]

Some of these things have health features on them so if they accidentally fall it will notify 911 if needed and car accidentally and more

[@jeffsweat5182]

Excellent video. I'm trying to get an apple watch for my 76 year old mother. I'm wondering what apple watch do you both have? Is it the SE, or 6? 7? I would love for you to do another video on what watches you have and more functions that I could show to her. Thank you both so much

[@morriereece5007]

With So Many Widows Surrounding you be caré-Full your Wifé might Gét Jealoús 😃😃😂👍👍

[@scottsworld]

Apple products are crazy expensive here in Australia, but I'm thinking of getting an appleWatch SE for my mum, now that my dad has died and she lives alone! #falldetection

[@tjtexas5130]

Just check first - the SE may not include heart and / or oxygen monitor.

[@janinejohnston3656]

I just bought one specifically because of the fall detection! How did you get the volume of the phone call so loud?

[@morriereece5007]

I turned up the volume on the Apple Watch

[@janinejohnston3656]

I did that, still can’t hear a phone conversation even with my hearing aids in. I have an SE 2nd Generation.
