20 REAL LIFE Ways I Use My Apple Watch Ultra

[@PeteMatheson]

Oh, and I use the watch to tell the time as well! 🤣 What things do you use your watch for ALL the time?

[@SondelaConsulting]

Telling the time? Thats crazy Talk. next, you will be telling me you use the "phone" to make calls. .

Alarm, daily. As you said it doesn't disturb others and is so gentle. Airtag notifications (I tend to forget my iPad or keys in meeting rooms). Phone calls when out and about. I don't even take my phone out of my pocket anymore (in quiet places - because, customers..)

[@Vexterian]

After watching this, I am convinced I don’t really need an Apple Watch.

[@thereecious]

Most of this can be done on any Apple Watch. The extra battery life is definetely a plus though.

[@Peanutdenver]

I surf daily so it was a no brainer for me here in SoCal. I also love the extra battery life and having almost everything that's on my iPhone on my wrist. I was never a smart watch guy until I saw the Ultra and it changed my mind.

[@PeteMatheson]

Nice!

[@anrn5303]

and im sure all these features are available in the regular series watch, right? :)

[@MatthewDell]

I love my Apple Ultra. I use the multisport mode for triathlons. My family can track me when the race's tracking isn't as accurate. I appreciate these tips to help me get more out of my watch!

[@williamfrankferge1957]

Enjoy your videos mate very helpful useful enjoy the humor thank you

[@jordanrubinfilm]

Hey Pete. Which Tesla unlock app are you using? I feel like Tesla had an Apple Watch app a couple years ago, but it stopped being supported. Would love to have that feature on my watch.

[@danielkaplan6582]

Great video sir! Which parking app did you use in this video? Thanks!

[@Deiota26]

@@danielkaplan6582 I’d love to know that either please

[@lorenzoromagosa3828]

so when do you charge it. Because its not like it lasts 5 days or so. ?

[@PeteMatheson]

Every 2-3 days I throw it on the charger for an hour. Sometimes when I’m getting up, sometimes at my desk 👍🏼

[@lorenzoromagosa3828]

@@PeteMatheson Great thanks. Waiting to get mine.

[@andygeorge5083]

Pete brilliant video . I know you touch on this one in the Day using an Apple Watch video but I think the Torch feature is brilliant.

[@PeteMatheson]

Thanks Andy! Indeed it is - I normally get my phone out for the torch as it's easier to shine away from you than holding your wrist at 180 degrees lol Appreciated!

[@roelofkoelewijn9462]

I do all the same things with my Apple Watch 7, except sleeping because that’s when I charge it. The alarm when it’s on the charger is pretty ok, I saved a lot of money this way 😊

[@trellsmith4075]

Nope it’s way better I love mine it’s a flex everybody Apple Watch series I barely see other people with my ultra I love that

[@AngryBritain]

Here in shame. Bottled switch to S23U and have gone 14PM instead. Now want Watch Ultra to cheer myself up about another 2 years of looking at iOS ...

[@akhillz]

is the speed on this video set higher than 1x? his speech seems accelerated

[@PeteMatheson]

Nope, I just talk like this I’m afraid! 🤣

[@KIYO-VRT]

Which alarm app did you use

[@SondelaConsulting]

Great Vid as always mate, Couple of questions. How many of these work on the Normal Apple Watch. Also, can you do a video on the Home Automation on what you use it for? Lastly, you mentioned you open doors in your house with Home automation. WTAF (I need this in my life can you tell me how)

[@PeteMatheson]

Hey bud! You can do quite a lot of these on there to be fair! Still working on putting a home automation video together! But will hopefully make one soon :) Check out the Yale Conexis L1 lock. 👍🏼

[@dmang0]

The primary thing the Ultra has over the normal Apple Watch is the battery life. There's no way around it. He also mentioned not carrying the phone. That's another task that can't be done on the normal watch.

[@SondelaConsulting]

@@dmang0 You can use the normal Apple watch without a phone too, I do all the time with my Apple Watch 7

[@darylcheshire1618]

I like the extra battery life and this is the first watch that has a SIM, the fall protection, if I fall off a ladder or crash my bike is reassuring. I like the red watch face.

[@timgatz4219]

Thanks for the video mate! :) Can’t wait to have my own Ultra watch in my hands!

[@PeteMatheson]

I'm sure you'll love it!! Very welcome :)

[@Swdragon76]

Hi, Thank you very much, a fantastic video, what app do you use on Applewatch and control Tesla, I didn't get it? can you help me? Thanks you so much…

[@PeteMatheson]

It’s just called ‘Watch for Tesla’ Expensive, but worth it as a backup for my phone!

[@Swdragon76]

@@PeteMatheson Thanks you so much 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@et3322]

How did you get the "home assistant" functions on the Apple Watch? Does it pair with different brands to control garage doors, lights, etc?

[@PeteMatheson]

This is just using the native home assistant app, you can then add certain buttons / controls via Home Assistant. Home Assistant itself then integrates with all of the devices, so rather than having to open 12 different apps, I can do it all from one place.

[@SondelaConsulting]

@@PeteMatheson Can you do a home assistant tutorial video? Really want to understand how it works

[@seederiektdg8492]

Hi Pete, awesome vid. I've bought an ultra 9 weeks ago and haven't taken it off since. You actually use it like I do. One question though: what do you use to open your garage door? I'd like to have that in my system.

[@PeteMatheson]

I bought a cheap meross (homekit compatible) garage door opener from Amazon and wired it into my garage door opener. It also integrates with Home Assistant, so then I can either use the Meross or Home Assistant apps to control it :)

[@burtonruder]

Set up to open garage door.

[@goudendynamiethd2117]

Most of these things Apple Watch Series 8 is also capable of. The only significant difference is just the batter life of the Ultra and maybe the Action Button. Other than that, it’s the same for non-hikers/swimmers, etc.

[@ToySeeker]

What’s is the little antennae? 😊

[@PeteMatheson]

haha! Shooting a 360 Timelapse for my Insta360 video :)

[@leew6609]

Thanks for the upload Pete,I’ve literally had my ultra a couple of days and your tips have been a great start for my journey.Great quality video and very well presented,cheers 👍

[@PeteMatheson]

Awesome! Thanks man 🙌🏼 Enjoy the watch!

[@solostaley]

so about your insurance? what company?

[@nickziemer8123]

Seems to be the ideal technology to have especially all of those Californians stuck in the snow for weeks and can be located via satellite

[@jvenema86]

so almost wonderful beautiful video friend Pete i love it so much

[@raulciungu]

Can you please give a link to the Strong workout app?

[@jvenema86]

i love it i have a question on you

[@Channel4Scott]

Which Tesla app do you use?

[@PeteMatheson]

For direct bluetooth it's 'Watch for Tesla'. It's expensive for an app, but great as a backup in case phone battery is dead!

[@anthonyb2990]

0:34 how did you get it to go into that sleep mode where it’s just showing the time and dim? When I’m wearing my watch to bed and the alarm is set for my bedtime it’s just my normal watch face?

[@PeteMatheson]

Mine does it automatically when I set a wake up time in the alarm settings. But you can manually do that by tapping the moon icon (do not disturb) and choose sleep 👍🏼

[@hoodurkel]

You have to setup the sleep focus. Once the sleep focus is Setup, have the watch mirror the iPhone so when the iPhone goes into sleep focus then the watch does also. Do note if you have a Apple Watch series 8+ you won’t be able to track your wrist temperature unless the watch is in sleep focus.

[@Craylor]

The roundabout confusion strikes back! 🤣🤣

[@PeteMatheson]

It's engrained in video FOREVER 😂

[@DanielHeath1Watcher]

HOW do you unlock your password manager with a double click from your Apple Watch.... THAT can be very useful

[@PeteMatheson]

It's a feature of 1Password - just needs enabling in the settings!

[@SondelaConsulting]

@@PeteMatheson I could do with knowing this too. is that the settings in the phone app or the desktop app

[@ychu9432]

R u from South Africa ?

Uk !

[@vamos419]

You can do all these things on the regular Series 8 as well. The only advantage of Ultra is battery life.

And bigger brighter screen.

Great video though it had kind of an abrupt stop… maybe needs an “outro”

[@PeteMatheson]

Thanks James! I'm playing around with end screens at the moment. KZbin wants people to watch all of the video, but it's sometimes a bit too abrupt like you say!

[@jvenema86]

what for serie watch have you?

[@caseykernaghan7833]

As a phone … because at my workplace …. Phones are not allowed on the floor.

Next investment is a gimbal, not too expensive.

[@ExposedRoot]

The Apple Watch Ultra is the only watch you've been able to sleep with for sleep tracking? Really? 🤔

[@PeteMatheson]

Yep. Others don’t have the battery life to last. Or too big and heavy (galaxy watch 5 pro) The ultra is surprisingly light given its size. Regular Apple Watch and pixel need me to charge them every single day

[@ExposedRoot]

@@PeteMatheson So the Samsung watch 5 Pro is heavier and bigger than the Ultra 🤔? Dude I'm going to call you out on that.. That's ridiculous. So over these flip flop one week it's the ultra next week it'll be the Garmin. Anything for content.

Yeah I bought ultra and my Garmin Tactix Delta feels like a 20yo junk 😂

[@Mardoxx7]

@@PSy84 You know you can do the exact same stuff with an older Apple Watch for 1/8 of the price? Or a new Apple Watch 1/3 of the price? Or any Xiaomi smartband for 1/20 of the price?
