Hello, regarding those notifications – they will now notify me ofonets Apple Watch for example, that I left my phone at home (at the time they disconnected from iPhone via Bluetooth)?
Hello, I don't think it will work like this. I understood it to be the other way around. In other words, you will receive a notification on iPhoneif you leave (with iPhonem e.g. In the pocket) from Apple Watch, airpods etc.
I don't know... but I personally prefer typing an alarm on the keyboard rather than scrolling through hours/minutes to find the ones I need. Could it be that way?chat.
