Apple Watch Exercise Failures

 

 

Cordova, TN; March 22, in the year of our Lord 2021 -- Family Friendly Gaming, the industry leader in covering the family friendly video games is continuing to be the voice of diversity in the gaming media, and media at large. Many of ya’ll know I love getting exercise. I also enjoy mixing technology with exercise. Whether that be Just Dance video games, or something like Ring Fit Adventure. These are games I enjoy playing because I am getting exercise while playing them. Yolanda my wife upgraded her Apple Watch and gave me her old one. Very cool right?

I have noticed some issues with the Apple Watch. I am not Rush Limbaugh so I will not hold back my punches on Apple and their plethora of failures. The Apple Watch is a great example of these failures. I played Ring Fit Adventure this morning. According to the video game I exercised for twenty-two minutes. My Apple Watch showed three minutes for the entire day. This included going up and down the stairs twice, going outside to let the dog go to the bathroom, moving things around and more. How could the Apple Watch be so off with the exercise? By the way I clean the leads every single morning before putting on the Apple Watch.

I have noticed this problem with the Apple Watch multiple times. I take a mile walk and the Apple Watch gives me five minutes of exercise even though it took me 10-15 to take that mile walk. What is even funnier is when I get home from the one mile walk what the Apple Watch does. Can you guess? When I get home from the walk the Apple Watch tells me it noticed I am out for a walk, and would I like to start recording my walk. This is after I have completed the walk entirely. How can the Apple Watch be so far behind? How can the Apple Watch fail this often. Yolanda has the same problem with her Apple Watch. I have compared the Apple Watch to other step counting devices and the Apple Watch is always way behind.

What scares me is there are people using their Apple Watches for accurate accounting of their exercise and steps. I know people using the Apple Watch to lower their insurance rates. They are using a faulty, flawed, and failed piece of technology in terms of that feature. What bothers me the most is Apple advertises this feature. Please be aware of the failures of the Apple Watch. I do not trust what it tells me. It is a great reminder to get up and move around more often. I refuse to give the Apple Watch any kind of exercise related respect. The scientific facts are completely against the Apple Watch.

I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day.

God bless,
