Just out of curiosity, could you share some of those indie apps? I’d like to check them out!

The only one I struggle to find a substitute for these days (since all the third party twitter apps were killed) is Fantastical.

In no particular order and far from exhaustive.

Nice! The only app in that list that’s similar to stuff I use on Android is SeriesGuide which seems similar to TV Forecast at a first glance.

I can definitely see app quality being better on iOS for the indie apps as you say

The fact iOS folk tend to buy/sub to apps also has an effect.

You can also add them to  Pay or Stocard. But Barcodes is just nicer.

And that probably goes all the way down with every app I’ve listed.

It’s not just a tick box exercise for RSS Reader, Mastodon client, Read it Later app. On iOS you just get these beautiful, thoughtfully designed apps which are delightful to use.

Have you definitely selected the correct age range? Readings cans be misleading if you are actually 3-36 months (or younger).

There are 3 age ranges to select: 0-3 months, 3-36 months and 3+ years:

3+ years it is then…

I know this but we don’t know for sure how old Chistery is.

Sarcasm failed I guess.

That is a good point. We don’t know if it was a self-measurement or if it was a measurement of a young/very young person.

For once my age is actually at the top of the list. nowadays I usually have to scroll down so much to get to my age range I am getting repetitive scroll wheel finger.

My position too. I held off from the 2 and heavily considered the 3. The fact I haven’t jumped yet tells me to wait for the 4 & see.

No. In fact, I haven’t used a smartwatch since my Mobvoi TicWatch E died about 6 years ago.

An unconscious move toward health monitoring is swaying me back to a decent smartwatch. Battery life has always decided the outcome so far - I’ve been very tempted to get a Fitbit Sense 2 for this reason - but held off for a more Pixelly solution. I’ve always gone ‘round’ (my first Moto360 was the best!), although I think Apple nailed it with the Ultra.

Evri…… they can take a bit to pick up and longer to show tracking.

Was it well charged? We’ve had problems with my son’s PW1, usually when it’s not got a decent charge in it.
