It's funny to read that, because in my culture looking at your watch is a sign of "let's finish" or "I'm in a hurry", while briefly looking at the phone is perfectly acceptable.
But I admit, that people with smartwatches confuse me from time to time, when they look at their watch frequently and are not in a hurry :)
- stevewillows 10y agothat's the beauty of the vibration. You don't need to look at your watch to get a fifteen minute warning (or whatever you've set it to). The buzz is silent to others, but enough that you'll recognize it.
- djrogers 10y agoIn my experience, the only silent 'buzz' is from my apple watch - and that's probably because it's not a buzz. My pebble and martian watches both had loud, obnoxious vibrations that were no better in many quiet situations than a beep would have been. Apple's decision to put so much work in to the 'taptic engine' was a smart one IMHO - wearing any other smart watch now feels like having a moto razr strapped to my wrist when it vibrates.
