Even though I'm a career IT guy and migrated to Apple gear around 2008, I always learn something from your videos. Great work!

[@elivne]

I always love your ability to bring proper value to this type of videos, thank you!

[@williamdoublelink]

Very good indeed. Concise and easily understood. I’ve saved this video for future reference. Not many, if any, KZbinrs provide Tips&Tricks insight better than you do. Thank you very much. 👍🏽

The tap to skip workout countdown ... brilliant!

[@CutiePi]

Maps on the watch is amazing, I used it while travelling. Best feature.

[@georginavegas2017]

I just found your channel and thank god I did! Wow, I’ve never seen anyone explaining so thorough and so easy to understand. Lots of people talk way too fast and they don’t show how to get to the screen they are showing. Thank you very much for taking the time to help us out. Blessings to you and your family.

[@BenHulscher]

Thanks Tom! I was just hoping for a watch related video from you!

[@johnt6022]

I stumbled across your page and I have to say, I absolutely love your presentation. Its hard to explain, but you are very different to the other tubers who report on Apple products. Another subscriber for you!!!!

[@djb_tv]

As always - totally helpful. Thank you 🙏🏽

[@travisconnell]

Man even though I work @ Apple and most of the things I tend to know. Your videos are so helpful and informative that I had to comment lol Please keep making these types of videos, I know everyone loves them and it helps out so much for people to be more aware of all the features and tips. Btw I still watch every single video of yours and I sometimes STILL learn new things even though I’m a die hard Apple guy haha Amazing content. Love the easy format and the personable video views.

Thanks for the comment, much appreciated!

[@clarewillison9379]

You can! If you click on “…more” under the title it opens the video description at the bottom of which there’s a transcript which you can follow along. You could take a screenshot to save as a reminder. Hope this helps!

I’m like you with my Apple Watch I always forget to see what tips and tricks that it can do, yet I’m always looking for tips and tricks for my phone and my iPad. Love your videos. I was hoping you would show some of the finger tapping tricks- that would be fun. Thank you again for all you do, and good luck with those babies❤❤

I have an apple watch since one month and from time to time watch some videos on youtube about things that I might have missed about the watch. I seen dozens of them but most of them don't get farther than "you can even open the weather app, isn't that amazing???". But yours is the first video that actually had a lot of new tips for me. Thank you!

I love your videos, you’re very good explaining things, but somehow there’s so many commercials, and there very very long ones. It becomes cumbersome to look at. Is there anything you can do to cut down on the commercials and the length?

[@ProperHonestTech]

Thanks for the kind words. The commercials fund this channel. Without those, I'd not be able to afford to make this content, or would have to hide it behind a paywall.

[@RameshKumar-ng3nf]

Dude , atleast have basic info on KZbin commercials. If you dont need youtube commercials , you can go for youtube premium app subscription which dosent give you ads. I use youtube premium subscription so i can save my time in watching videos without the ads. Note that its a very nominal amount affordable per year, and nothing big amount. You can go for it as you dont wanted disturbances while watching videos. Hope this info helps.

[@meites]

Hey I really like the video and I appreciate it. I have a strange I can assure you Apple wasn't able to solve .. my Apple Watch ultra 2 and no longer start activities automatically or even when you press the activity.. all the settings are correct, nothing I can do just get started other than sliding over and starting. I downloaded the shortcut that was supposed to modify the watch for different times of the day.. but since Deleted it. (And updated the watch). Is it possible a shortcut is still somehow running? Shot in the dark you may know how to fox this or about the shortcut..

[@torontostew]

Thanks for these hidden features

[@keithrobshaw179]

You need to do an update for 10.2 (the clock option now starts with swipe to switch watch face). Nice video though 😊

[@paulpendyck9438]

Love your videos. Great job! Have you done any on the apple sleep app. I did a search but couldn't find anything specific.

I just got an iPhone after being on android for the past 15 years and the quality on the iPhone is unmatched there’s a quality here that I did not know I was missing

[@mandkallen]

It was good to see you put the zoom on there as most people do not think about the accessability settings that can help lots of people. and also the haptic time is good a bit like the last point you made for talking time. with hapitc time when the watch is muted using the 2 fingers you get a haptic which tells you the time

[@bbjohnston1872]

I watch all your videos.... I noticed that you have Nike Run Club app.. I also use that app but have a problem with my Open Run Pro Shokz bone conduction headphones. Maybe you can help..... While using NRC, I have the app reporting my times and distance every 1/4 mile. At the beginning of every voice prompt the voice in the Shokz cuts out briefly... I think that NRC is trying to find which app to broadcast on. I'm not sure if that makes any sense or not, but I'm trying.

[@francoisdutoit3676]

Hi Tom. Thanks for a great video. I’ve got problems getting my iPhone 12 LED light to flash when I press and hold the ping button on the control screen of my ultra1 watch. It just pings after I tap and hold it. No light. am on IOS 17.1.2. Please advise.
