    Actually curious what people think of it? I posted when I downloaded the beta about how poorly executed it was and I got downvoted to oblivion. Now that it’s out and people are using it, do you think it works well?

    There’s certain aspects of it that drive me absolutely crazy. For example, if I want to pause my music, it works great. But once it’s paused for a few seconds, the music app disappears and there’s no way to resume. You can double tap to get to smart stacks, but unless it’s set to select which is pointless, it doesn’t play the music and you have to use your finger to play anyway. Phone calls work the same way where you can answer but it too resumes to the watch face and you can’t hang up the call.

    And I do have my watch set to return to clock after 2 minutes but it still doesn’t do this for me. It’s really bizarre behavior. I personally feel the double tap should have an override to stay on that app if used to answer a call/ pause music

      I’m intrigued more than convinced. For notifications I find it really useful, but on the Home Screen I find the preference towards Smart Stack rather than notification drawer a bit puzzling. I know they’re trying to push a new feature, but the notification drawer is way more useful for most people and I’d like to be able to open it and scroll through notifications via double tap.
