Pixel Watch 4 adds one-handed gestures and enhanced Smart Replies
Aaaand Google continues artificially separating PW2, PW3 and PW4... Announcing X years of software support is a great headline, then omit the part where you should say these updates will arbitrarily include features or not.

Beyond Hand Gestures: We need a "Wrist Flip" Back-Button!
Just submitted this to Google. The new PW3 gestures are a great start, but we need that 'Back Button' flip! Imagine navigating the UI entirely hands-free while carrying groceries. What’s the one gesture you’d set up first?

"Build a run" gone?
I am seeing the same thing but have not really played around with that aspect too much as i have a ton of saved runs on my PW3 so usually just edit or start one from that. However. I was able to go to the Fitbit App > Fitness > Start a workout > See all > + Build a workout... Not very intuitive but

Does the pixel watch have parental control features to limit texting/calling to approved contacts?
I just got a PW3 used off ebay today to try this out. My kid has a fitbit ace but they're going into high school next year and this is a bit to childish for them. Phone calling seems to work with the Family Link contact list just fine. They can also receive and reply to incoming texts from the list.

I still don't have the March Pixel Drop...
Update: I finally found my PW3 after about ~2 weeks, (i lost it, my bad) and i plugged it in, waited for it to charge and it said "Place watch on charger for update to continue" and i was so excited. Glad i waited because so far i haven't had any issues, and pinch controls work GREAT! The only probl

Want to try the Pixel watch on a budget...
I am pretty much in the same place. I have a 9 Pro XL and PW3 45mm LTE. The watch is outstanding (as is the phone, which I upgraded from a P7 pro). Watch: Great battery life, even with display "always on" (which still dims itself); excellent brightness, great LTE connectivity too. You can get a used

Switched from Galaxy Active Watch 2 → Pixel Watch 3 (45mm)
Oh Im like 5 months in with PW3. It's pretty good, the watch looks great, i got the Google metal band and I quite like it. Compared to AW2 it's not a clear winner. Battery drains faster and i am noticing messaging apps have a delay. I am not complaining tho, because I use the watch a lot for my work

Warranty return procedure question (PW4)
I returned a brand new one last weekend, the touchscreen didn't work. I paid in advance for a 'refurbished' one (which I was cross about as mine was literally straight out of the box). The email said to hang on to original accessories. When the 'refurbished' one arrived it had a sticker on box sayin
