Apple

I do not. I put it on the charger before I shower and then while I dry my hair and by the time I'm ready to go to bed I pop it back on.

I always take my Apple Watch off when I shower.

Every time.

I mistakenly washed mine with other clothes in the laundry.It came out nice and clean.

Shower with mine because it helps me get out the door on time. Also a great time to wash the Watch. I usually charge it in the evenings when I get home from working out after work. I put it back on before bed.

Mine only comes off to go on the charger or if I’m doing something where it may end up smashed. Ocean, hot tub, shower , rain, snow it still works as it did the day I bought it.

I shower with it fairly often! But usually I charge it when I plan to be showering.

You’re living life on the edge. I know they say it’s water resistant but I don’t want to risk it.

I did with my first one but it eventually let water in and there was a dark blue blob on one side of the screen. Apple couldn’t care less and wouldn’t do anything about it. I don’t shower with them now.

Same always have (Ultra and Series 6 in the past)

I have a cloth strap. No thanks.

I used to shower with my series 4, but the speaker stopped working after a while. I stopped when sleep tracking was introduced; now it’s my charging time.

I got the speaker repaired “for free” by getting a battery replacement. They swap out the entire watch, so the one with a new battery had a working speaker.

I used to do it. Every time it notified me that noise it too loud 😂 but everything was alright

Cool story, me too

My Apple Watch died and never turned back on this summer because I wore it while swimming. I went to the Apple Store to get it checked they told me “oh, but you should have rinsed it after coming out of the sea because the salt deteriorated the water-resistant property. Since you are out of warranty, you can get it repaired for 300+€.” Mind you, it was an AW SE 1st gen.

I read that soap etc can mess up the sensors so unlike my Tag I never shower with mine. I charge it. 30 mins and we are good for 24 hours and honestly what telemetry is going to be missing?

Am I the weirdo for taking the watch off when I sleep?

I've worn daily in the shower since Series 0 (also Series 3, Series 6). Never any issues except sometimes it reports that it's too loud (maybe it just doesn't like my signing?).

Well I don't wear mine in the shower because of the trail loop band...don't like that getting wet and possibly dirty

Do you put on the water lock mode?

Of course I don’t shower with it and don’t get why people would. I wouldn’t want to have a wet soapy wrist behind the watch, surely that shit would go cristy after a while?

I like to shower with AW too. Its cleaning the watch too lol.

Sir, I was born in 1989. Too many childhood years of throwing Nokia 3310s into bowls of rice simply will not allow me to take a $700 gadget into the shower with me.

Thank you for letting us know

I always take it off. Technically I know it's waterproof, but somewhere in my pea brain, technology + water = broken

Also, I don't see any reason to wear it while showering.

I shower with mine every day? Not sure what the big fuss is over this. We all know it has a depth feature?

Whoooaaaaa! Put an NSFW tag on this! Jeez…congratulations but damn, man. I’m not supposed to be in Reddit at work and this is gonna be busted one of these days.

I used to do it. Now I take it off and charge it while I'm showering.

If you take it in the shower and don't take it off and clean it while you're in the shower and/or dry it and your wrist off after the shower, you're likely to encounter two things, odor and dermatitis.

I usually don't shower with it when

1. I charge it (usually to 85ish %)

2. I wear my non-waterproof watch strap

​

Especially after running I keep it on to clean it

Series 8 have showered with it and timer activated to get moving.

i think people who want to shower with it on should shower with it on and people who don’t want to shower with it on should not shower with it on

I do this too and I get my exercise rings full easily if I move my watch from left hand to right hand when I'm on shower

I’ve used my Apple Watches in the ocean. Just remember to wash it off after. It detects when you’re swimming. There’s even a mode that locks the touch function of the screen since the water activates the screen. Finally when you disable the water mode (i forget what it’s called), it plays a tone on the watch + vibrates so that any water is expelled.

When I first bought it, I was very careful not to let it come into contact with water, even when washing my hands. However, one day I did sports and I sweated a lot. I realized that I couldn't clean it by just wiping it with a cloth, so I took a shower with the Apple Watch. I don't do this very often, but sometimes I take the Apple Watch into the shower to clean it.

I have never taken mine into the shower. It would feel weird to me. I usually place it on a charger while I am showering.

I’ve always showered with mine for years… it’s had plenty of soap/shampoo/hot water on it and it’s still perfectly fine. Love all the comments who basically say we’re lying, or as if we are fooled in thinking our watches aren’t broken.

My S8 goes into the shower with me at least once every single day without ill-effects.

As a result, it’s clean as a whistle, and doesn’t have all my workout sweat building up in the nooks and crannies of the strap, along with all the delicious skin flakes that inevitable drop off us humans.

Whilst this thing isn’t a G-Shock you can cheerfully put through the dishwasher, the only outcome of a ten-minute shower is a clean me and a clean watch.

i take it off when i shower because im OVERLY cautious with my technology

I do this too and I get my exercise rings full easily if I move my watch from left hand to right hand when I'm on shower

i don’t. it’s stupid to shower with it on because soaps and hot water could damage the seals. also i’m in there to clean myself not to fuckin play with my watch

First, as others have written-this is when I charge it. And second (and from experience with my Series 4)-it tends to build up impurities from the minerals and the hardness of the water.

Just out of curiosity is there anything to measure or any benefit in showering with it? Or you forget you have it on? When do you charge it then?

Gross bro

i shower with my apple watch every day and it's been fine. it always looks clean and brand new. anyone else shower with it?

Take mine off to bath/shower because if the soap. But I do swim either it on because it has swim mode!

The soap will ruin it and void warranty
