Has the Apple Watch improved your life? Or is it just a hedonistic luxury for you? (alien.top)

Btw. is it possible to mute all notifications, while i'm on my iphone or macbook and only have them on the watch, when im not on the phone or macbook? I guess not? Kinda annoying to have them everywhere.

The notification is designed to only appear in the "active" device. So if you're using your phone, the notification appears there. If your phone is locked, the notification goes to the watch. I find the mac notification a bit weird in this aspect, but the ones between iphone and apple watch will work as you describe.

Yeah! You can have the watch notifications “match” your phone. So if you swipe one away on one device, the other will also update.

There’s also focus mode settings you can play with

Uh nice, do i have to set that up?

// nvm it already works like that. cool.
I guess i have to limit the incoming notifications. I hate them :D

Yeah I never realized how much spam I'm subscribed to that floods my phone. Hits different when you get tapped by the watch to look at it 😒

You can also specify which apps can send notifications which is nice! I just have a handful turned on
