Apple Watch Series 6 with Tattoos

Is anyone aware of how the new watch will react with heavily tattooed forearms?


Currently have a series 3 but my tattoos make it impossible to use due to disconnecting every few minutes.

Hey jmrsdn,


i bought the Apple Watch Series 6 Nike edition and i have also issues with the wristdetection, so nothing works correctly. That’s so frustrating. Every year, since the og, i bought the new apple watch. I can’t understand this problem. Other brands like garmin or polar can do it too. Imo they can solve the problem if they would turn of the wristdetection but let the other function works. I know it’s important for apple pay so they can turn this function off.
