I think Apple Watch should have a “I’m sick” feature. It should then display notifications like “today you burned only 200 active kcal, good job! Keep it down and you’ll be healthy in no time!”. Or reminders to stay hydrated.

It just feels stupid when I spend whole day in bed feeling like shit and then the Watch sends me a friendly reminder it’s not too late to close my rings.

Not to mention this “stay on the move” culture starts to get ridiculous.

What other notifications would you see in this mode? Doctors appointments? Reminders to sleep more?

    I know it is possible to disable those notifications, I know you can do a lot with shortcuts and focus as well. My point was an option to present different notifications to keep you motivated to stay in bed and heal.

    I don’t know about you guys, but when I’m sick I feel like I should be doing something productive and such notifications would be helpful to stop feeling guilty for being sick.
