One of the things I love about wearable technology is not having to constantly have my phone in my hand. Quickly, I can delete e-mail messages, reply to texts, and get updates and alerts.
While a few of the other major airlines have embraced this technology, Southwest isn't quite there. I would absolutely love to be able to drop my bag, fly through security and board my flight with a flick of my wrist!
*I am so so so sorry I posted a picture with another airline's logo. Hopefully it will be the Southwest heart the next time I fly!
No issues with other carriers. Actually, as a workaround, I will screenshot my WN boarding pass, crop the QR code and then save it to Google Keep so I can display the image on my watch. (I have a Fossil Q Founder but have also used this technique with the Samsung Gear Live).
It would be great to be able to do this natively from the app without the work around.
Also, I've read some people complaining about using their watch at TSA checkpoints or some barcode scanners that "face up" as you typically have to flip your wrist upside down. My solution to this is to twist my watch so the face is facing down. No more looking like a contortionist when I go to scan my code!
