It’s gone off twice; both times when I’ve been playing with my dog, and remained upright on two legs. On the other hand I have fallen so many times. Fell off my bicycle a couple of winters back, got a massive bruise that took like six months to fully heal. Slipped on some ice and tumbled down a cliff. Slipped on a patch of ice and slid down a hill, completely ruining one pair of trousers. There’s countless other smaller falls in there, like one literally last Thursday where I hit my head and got a nasty headache for the rest of the day. None of these occasions ever triggered the fall detection. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] dandroid@dandroid.app 14 points 2 years ago (1 child) I'm really surprised at how many times you've fallen down. I can't remember the last time I fell down. Probably before the apple watch even existed. Needless to say, it sounds like you have a much more active life than me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dojan@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago Lots of ice in the winter, and I have a mutt with husky in him. Looots of walking. I’m also really clumsy. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Earthwormjim91@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) If you get up right after you fall it won’t activate. And it’s usually set to only activate during workouts if you’re under a certain age, I think 50. It’s activated for me crashing a bike when I just lay there for a second, but doesn’t activate if I pop back up after a fall. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dojan@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago* In the bigger ones, like the bike and the tumble down the cliff I didn’t immediately get up. I laid there for a bit gathering myself. When it actually did ask if I took a tumble, I never fell over to begin with - I was standing upright. I guess our proverbial mileages vary. permalink fedilink source parent [–] claycle@ttrpg.network 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) I crashed my motorcycle on a trail in Utah near Moab last June. My A-watch notified my spouse in Texas when I didn't get up after the fall. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dojan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) I’m glad you made it though! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] claycle@ttrpg.network 3 points 2 years ago ME, TOO! I was the recipient of a great deal of kindness from complete strangers in those 48+ hours I spent in Moab after the crash and I am grateful for it. That circle of gratitude encompasses the many far-away and unknown persons at Apple (et al) who positioned the watch so it could be on my arm. permalink fedilink source parent
