Showering with the Apple Watch: is the watch waterproof?
Due to the name, the sport version of the Apple Watch could be waterproof. However, you shouldn't wear them while swimming:
- The watch is water protected according to the IPX7 standard. That means you can keep the watch on when it's raining, showering, and washing your hands.
- However, you should avoid diving deep with your watch. The Apple Watch is therefore not suitable for swimming.
- Even if the watch is water-protected, you should pay special attention to the version with a leather strap, as the leather is sensitive to water.
