I would love to see an “ankle mode” as I tend to wear my watch on my ankle during runs bc if I’m not moving my arms it doesn’t seem to count the distance/steps therefore my metrics are off.

Would also love to see a “treadmill run” function with improved distance readings for those measurements - my watch is about .25 mi lower than the treadmill distance since it’s not working with gps like on outdoor runs.

Smart wake up alarm. Similar to Sleep Cycle, but in an Apple way.

Ability to set 24 or 12 hour time by complication.

I don’t want everything on my watch to be in 24hr time, just to get the GMT ring in 24 time like it should be.

Holographic display

Just me? Okay🥲

A native step counter customizable like pedometer++

I think it’d be cool if your watch could tell you when you have/are starting to get a fever

More Digital Watchfaces

To all the people asking for blood pressure monitoring, can you point to a device that has this feature as part of a smart watch/fitness tracker? What are you all talking about?

Personally, my most realistic wanted feature would be ambient (room) temperature readings.

My dream feature would be solar charging/capture.

And rest days. Apple already includes them as part of competitions, so I’m not sure why they are struggling to include this in personal fitness tracking.

A 24 MP camera, including HD video capabilities.

3rd party faces. I can’t for the life of me understand why they don’t have this yet. It would be a huge moneymaker and would sell more watches.

longerrrrr battery and volume control for the chime feature; can never hear it.

Proper custom watch faces. It’s really the biggest personalisation option they are not doing.

Does not have to be open with AI. Even if Apple first partner with watch companies, movie companies and so on and release licensed watch faces be it fired or 1.99 -3.99 on the App Store where they make them… a lot of people will be very much in.

A Harry Potter watch face would sell like crazy for example.

Play Sirius XM or another music app from my watch. Also would be nice to be able to respond to teams notifications on my watch.

UV sensor. I had a Microsoft watch back when they were in the phone game and their watch had a UV sensor on it and you could set up warnings on it for exposure.

I want a setting so that the timer alert will vibrate once instead of continuously.
