Re: Watch OS 3.0 - Vibration time!

[Shaf]

Apple Watch 2 is really great where VoiceOver responsiveness is
concerned. Highly recommend getting one, wrist notifications are a
pretty big deal.

[Lois Butterfield]

It is the same on the old watch.  I don't see how or why it should be any 
quicker.  I really don't think that a second is too long to wait for the 
vibration.  I really love this new feature.  I use it all the time.


Take care,
Lois

Subject: RE: Watch OS 3.0 - Viration time!

I was just in Vancouver and stopped by an Apple Store to check out the Apple 
Watch Series 2. The time feedback after a double or triple tap is very 
prompt, I would say maybe a second or less. It's not instant as in where it 
starts vibrating after the second or third tap, but very responsive. I was 
very impressed with the new Apple Watch and have a feeling that I am going 
to get one in the next couple of months. I am a bit undecided between the 
Sport or Stainless version. I like the weight of the Sport since I did find 
the stainless version felt quite heavy, but don't like the fact it doesn't 
have Sapphire glass. Of course here in Canada there is also a $210 price 
difference between the starting price of the Sport which starts at $489 for 
the 38mm model and the stainless which starts at $699 for the same size, I 
would definitely want the 42mm which in stainless starts here at $779 and 
then of course I like the higher-end bands, but I think you can now find 
many of them from third parties for much less than what Apple charges.

Yeah, I have found the double tap and triple tap to be a little slow on the 
first generation Apple Watch. It will be interesting to see if that time 
speeds up with the new watch. I should have mine in a couple of weeks. Here 
is to hoping…

Hello all,
The best new feature in Watch OS 3.0 is the "Vibration time".
This is not the official name.
With Voice Over on and the screen locked, tap twice on the watch.
It buz like a morse signal.
Teh code is very simple:
long vibrations stand for 10 unit; short vibrations stand for 1
unit.
Examples:
12.05 (1 logng, 2 shorts, pause, 5 shorts)
23.59 (2 longs, 3 shorts, pause 5 longs, 9 shorts)

For me it's a very beatiful mode, useful when it is not so  polite to 
speech the time.


Regards.
Claudio
