Hi, I’m due to start working on a hospital ward this week and I’m thinking of getting an Apple Watch to measure my steps. I know I can’t wear it on my wrist (and probably wouldn’t want to anyway!!) but would it be ok in my pocket? Does it measure steps accurately In the pocket? I have seen fob watch cases that I can put the watch face in but I’d be scared it would get broken and I have a lovely fob watch anyway.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

I can wear mine on my ankle 😁

Also the steps arent accurate anyway, if you go in the car you can watch your steps go up 😂🙈

Not an Apple Watch but my fitbit measure steps ok if i fasten round my bra strap. I see colleagues with Apple watches round their ankles under their tights....they look like they’re on tag! Grin

@Tbug great thanks, unfortunately my ankles are way too fat to fasten a watch around 😂

@JacobReesMogadishu maybe they are on tag and saying it’s a watch to throw you off 😂. I’ll try it around my bra strap

Thank you!

I take the straps off my fit bit type device and stick it in my bra (roomy bosoms)
