Firstly, you're not stupid.  The only dumb question is the one not asked.

  If I had more days left to play with, I probably would have called Apple and 
sorted it out. 


  I didn't think there was anything wrong with it. I just thought that I was 
doing something wrong with it. And, I did not like to share this with the list, 
just in case someone thought that I was being stupid.

        First day without the watch and I miss it, a time piece on my wrist.


        Now I’ll tell you why I gave up on it as I was very happy with it but 
mine had this flaw and I don’t know if anyone had it.


        Please note wrist to raise with voice over was off.  So think about 
this.  You do your normal duties be it round the house, at work or out and 
about.  Then suddenly this watch would start talking as if you had pressed it.  
Not just that, it would go in and out of apps as if you were touching it.  I 
had to tap it ten or 20 times to lock it before it stopped.  Some times when it 
was raining and my sleeve got wet and it would start talking, talking and 
talking!  So I’d have to power it off.  You don’t know how much it got on my 
nerves, I wanted to throw it somewhere for it to stop!  I thought the new 
update would sort it as I had reset it loads.  New update didn’t stop it.


        You would have said call Apple but Apple would have said for me to 
reset and then I’d have to take a day off work just to sit at home to wait for 
a courier and I couldn’t do it at this time as my annual leave has almost 
expired!  So yesterday morning after another period of this watch doing its 
moving in to apps back and forth in and out, I got to the point, I would not 
tolerate this watch anymore.  So you see what a time I had with it.  Also, 
after the new update, when my work out ended, it would continue to count and 
count down and I had to power it off.  Then another day it would crash for a 
whole day and when it finally come back on, there would be no power left it 
died until it was charged!  So there is my story.  So now I wait for the next 
one and this time I’ll not get the sports as I am wondering because it was 
sports it did this thing that got on my nerves!  How I miss my time piece 
though.


        Kawal.

                That’s what I’d like to know as well. I absolutely love mine, 
and don’t notice any accessibility concerns at all.
                Now do I wish the hardware could’ve been a little faster? Yes, 
but for a first-generation product that’s had 2 major updates since it’s 
launch, it’s quite remarkable.

                    I don’t think the latest update did it any favours!  So I 
gave it up and sold it.  Now I wait for the next generation and I hope it will 
be more functional than what it was as I’d like a little more independence from 
the phone!
