As a matter of fact, I have owned TWO iWatches....please tell me how you would properly pluralize the spelling, of iWatch. It wouldn't be iWatch's, as that is the possesive form of spelling iWatch...as in, "The iWatch's keen reception is evident".
I now own (my second iWatch) a third generation (I believe...we've had them for maybe a little over a year...I can't recall exact date we purchased them).
I am not fabricating anything, and honestly don't appreciate your suggesting that I have done just that.
One more thing...I have been on your Apple ping list for many years. As an owner of a (getting pretty old) MacBook Pro, three iPads, multiple iPhones, beginning with the first generation and an AppleTV (older generation) I have found your Apple pings to be informative and helpful. You have even answered a couple of questions I have had, regarding my various devices, in the past.
I'm truly disappointed in your accusations, towards me, and expected more from someone I had always considered a FRiend.
Take care.
Jane, my apologies, but there is no such thing as an "iWatch" to ever properly pluralize. That product name does not exist. Your description of being eavesdropped on by an Apple product is something that would never happen and in fact could not happen with an AppleWatch by design because they literally do not listen all the time they are on your wrist due to battery constraints, nor does Apple sell any advertising or customer data to third-parties at all, ergo, your experience could not have arisen from wearing one.
If your third generation AppleWatch had independent internet cellular connectivity, you’d know it because you’d have to pay an extra fee to your service provider to make calls on your watch when you were away from your iPhone. It would also have a red inset in the crown, and have cost you considerably more money than a non-cellular version.
I again apologize for my misapprehension, but with your use of the denigrating name of the AppleWatch, usually used only by those who don’t own them, and your description of a functionality that it can’t do, I think my misunderstanding was reasonable as your claim paralleled those I’ve faced before posted to cause people to distrust Apple’s promised privacy policy for its users which I’ve found to be reliable.
I suggest you give it a real world deliberate test. I know I’ve NEVER had such a thing occur with Apple.
I too consider you a FRiend.
