I think it's the latter. Only 21 pull requests, 336 commits by 58 contributors. Even so, it's a very good thing. While I have no plans to contribute (full time Java enterprise dev and doing my first Swift app on the side), I've got the repository…

When I'm working out, I'll occasionally get an anomalous reading. I just give it a few seconds to correct. I found that the low numbers I get during sleep are likely correct (I charge 30 minutes in the evening and wear it to bed).

I use Apple Notes when doing simple stuff. When it's more complex, I switch to iThoughts - a mind mapping tool. Great for reorganizing on the fly. I haven't used the full feature set yet as the multi-tasking on the original iPad Air doesn't support …

I speak from experience that the battery life is at least 18 hours. If I exercise, then battery life is around 30% when I go to sleep (sleep 7-8 hours). And it's 100% when I wake up at night 4-5 hours of going to sleep (I drink a large glass of wate…
