Yeah I was gonna say, “define plead guilty”

I honestly don’t remember how pervasive the need for a PIN was on the Pixel Watch, but even if it was only for purchases, it would invariably take 10X as long to switch to the Wallet when I was at checkout, or I would fumble hitting the right numbers on the small screen.

With my phone, if I’m not unlocking it with my finger as I pull it from my pocket, I can do it as part of the payment process very easily.

The whole experience of paying with my watch was lacking. If the phone and watch are connected via BT, then I feel like the wallet on the watch should just work without a PIN. Or at most a voice confirmation.

I just sold my Pixel Watch and bought a Withings Scanwatch.

Daily charging is annoying. I stopped using it to pay because then I’d have to set up a PIN, and then type in the PIN every time I want to use it. I’m not without my phone and it’s more convenient to pay with.

I did like the health monitoring features, but the daily charging made it intrusive and another thing I had to actively monitor.

Scanwatch gives me 30 days of battery, all the health tracking, and some basic notifications, which is fine but I’d get it even without that.

I’m not always working in the office, and they’ve asked us to connect to VPN only if we need access to the internal network. Email and Teams work without VPN, but now you want me to log in for web access? A browser blocker is better imo.

GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER USA !!!

oh wait, that’s me. nvm

You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know… morons.
