The Pixel Watch 4 doesn’t fix a longtime Fitbit problem, and I hate it

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-01 12:30:11

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Google unveiled the new and improved Pixel Watch 4, yet one of my long-standing asks remains unanswered: true multi-device support. With AI coaching arriving in October, I’d love to see Fitbit allow more than one active device per user. When brands like Garmin and Apple handle this seamlessly, its absence is starting to feel less like an oversight and more like a conscious trade-off. If you could use a Fitbit along with the Pixel Watch, would you do that? 104

The Apple Watch is not actually carbon neutral, says German court

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-11-01 14:56:41

Apple is no longer allowed to advertise the Apple Watch as carbon neutral, a German court ruled following a protest from environmentalists about Apple’s promoted claims. The Frankfurt court found the company misled consumers for describing the Apple Watch as a CO2-neutral product. Apple first unveiled its first carbon neutral products starting with the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2 in September 2023. The German ruling means that language relating to these devices being carbon neutral will h
