Caring For Your Apple Watch
Depending on the series you purchase, there are a variety of activities that you can perform using the device. The main functional difference between the current series 6 and SE is that the SE has no ECG and blood oxygen functions and does not have an always-on display. Nonetheless, they are both incredibly good smartwatches.
Some of the common functionalities that stretch across all the different series are the following:
1.Listen to Music
You can listen to the playlists that you have created on your iPhone, Apple Radio stations, and if you are a subscriber, any music from Apple Music. Just set up your headphones via Bluetooth, and you are set!
2.Track Your Sleep
With its own built-in sleep tracker, the Apple Watch can both determine how much time you are asleep during the time and analyse it to show you your sleeping pattern.
3.Track Your Workouts
The Apple Watch is also able to track your progress in a variety of activities, ranging from hiking to swimming. As you perform your activity, the app shows you your time, calories burned, distance travelled, and heart rate.
If you are still wondering whether or not to invest in an Apple Watch, it is the ultimate choice if you own an Apple phone and want to share information, monitor your health, use Apple apps and get the same superb quality, well-integrated, extended functionality on your wrist.
How to Care For Your Apple Watch
Knowing how to care for and understanding the important handling information for your Apple Watch can make or break it, literally. It is a piece of highly technical device after all and taking care of it involved more than a simple polish here and there.
1.Careful what it’s exposed to
The Apple Watch is water-resistant but not waterproof. This means that it is alright to wear and use it during exercise as exposure to sweat is no problem. The Apple Watch can also handle the rain, and while washing your hands. When it is exposed to water, simply use a non-abrasive, lint-free cloth to wipe it off. Be careful of other sorts of liquids such as perfume, detergents or hair dye coming into contact with your Apple Watch.
2.Cleaning and care
After workouts or heavy sweating, clean and dry your Apple Watch. If it comes into contact with anything that could stain or damage it, clean it in the following way:
- Turn off the Apple Watch
- Remove the band by depressing the band release button
- Use a non-abrasive, lint-free cloth to wipe the watch, and lightly dampen the cloth if necessary
Take caution not to clean it while it is charging. Do not use any external heat sources or cleaning products either. Do take note that it is normal for the coating to wear over time.
Proper usage
Do be kind to your Apple Watch. Avoid excessive pressure on the buttons or force a charging connector into the port. The charging cable and connector should be regularly checked for any damage. If damaged, discontinue usage and replace immediately.
What to Do When Your Apple Watch is Faulty?

A large part of what makes the iPad Mini so popular is its tiny frame combined with insane processing power. Apple knew their target demographic well when tweaking the specs for this recent release, and it really shows. Catered towards people working on the go, and creatives who spend a lot of time drawing and sketching for work, this 6th generation iPad Mini checks all the boxes for a powerful and portable tablet suited for work and play.
Apart from the changes to case material, the new design language of the iPad Mini 6 features a larger edge-to-edge screen, along with narrow borders and minimum bezel space. Although we’ve seen bezel-less devices from Apple for the better half of a decade, this is the first time the iPad Mini has gotten such an upgrade. In addition to looking much sleeker, this change is felt even more coupled with the new 8.3-inch Liquid Retina display with True Tone, P3 wide colour, and ultra-low reflectivity.
The end result is a gorgeous dynamic screen that makes the iPad Mini 6 a practical choice indoors and outdoors. Not to mention the support of Apple Pencil 2, which feels amazing on the low latency screen. All these facets add up to make a difference larger than the sum of each individual part, resulting in the new iPad Mini feeling like the perfect device for anyone wanting a portable and adaptable workhorse tablet.

It wouldn’t be an Apple upgrade if they didn’t improve the camera capabilities on the device. If anything, that’s the least we expect from the tech giant’s annual keynote events. This time, the iPad Mini has received blessings in both the front and back cameras on the device. Boasting a 12MP camera on both the front and back of the 6th-Gen iPad Mini, this is a massive boon compared to the relatively sub-par 7 and 8-megapixel cameras on the respective front and back of the 5th-Gen iPad Mini. The newer Mini also has the ability to record in 4k and capture higher-quality images, courtesy of the new Smart HDR 3 function in the A15 Bionic chip.
Knowing that video calls are also more popular now than even in the time of COVID-19, Apple’s implementation of CentreStage for a more natural video call experience also feels like a natural feature to have as well.
A ton of well-deserved updates to the iPad Mini makes it feel right at home alongside Apple’s latest generation of tablets. If you’re still wondering if you should still get the new iPad, the make or break factor here really is the size and portability of the iPad Mini 6.
Historically, the Mini was always viewed as the cheaper and lower-spec cousin of the flagship iPad. Not this time – the iPad Mini 6 proves a worthy contender for the individual who’s constantly on the move, looking for an all in one device that fits comfortably in the palm of their hand.
