Required too much force to take in and out
Really wanted to like this product but every time I put it in or take it out, it feels like I’m going to break the screen. Needs a new design in my opinion. The search continues...

ActionSleeve
The ActionSleeve works really well - it stays on my upper arm and enables the watch to maintain heart rate. Very easy to get the watch into and out of the ActionSleeve.

Action Sleeve
Really like this product. Great at the gym and under a shirt so I can track my activity and wear a dress watch for work.

Great but...
It’s a little bit difficult to insert the watch inside the case It was better if somehow you can made one that uses the watch band slots ! You know instead of the square middle case just add the connectors of the regular bands

Does the job
I wish it had a little more stretch as I feel like it is easy to make too tight and when you loosen the Apple Watch may loose skin contact. It is also a little hard to get the watch in and out...but I have had that challenge with every type of sleeve I have tried so this is no different.

Love it
I’m a fisherman so can’t wear my watch to work with a normal watch band as it gets gross and banged around a lot. So I bought this band so I could keep monitoring my excercise etc and it works so well! Super comfy and I hardly know it’s there, but can still feel the notifications etc which is also handy. Would 100% recommend!

Very useful for boxing
I box for fitness and this strap has been such a game changer for my workouts. It doesn’t slip on my arm and it’s just the right width that it doesn’t feel heavy or restricting

Excellent upper-arm sleeve
Sits comfortable, and gives your watch extra protection as well. The only drawback I have to mention is that for people like me with an 45mm Apple Watch 7 but thinner arms, the velcro is at its far end when I wear my watch. Some extra velcro would have been helpful. Maybe I need to exercise more :-)

Haven't stopped wearing it!
It's great for sport or work. Keeps the watch out of the way so it doesn't get damaged. Bare below the elbows is how most health practitioners must work and this is the best way to do it.

Excited for Series 7 Support
I own the earlier version of the ActionSleave, and I was excited about Series 7 support. The watch snaps into the holder quickly, and the slightly stretchy band is easy to fasten around the upper arm. During my first workout with the band, I experience no binding, even when working my biceps and triceps. Readings from the watch were consistent throughout the session. I'...

Fantastic!
I really like my ActionSleeve! I used to not be able to track my fitness while boxing and it was annoying because I would get some intense workouts in but not be able to track them. Now I am able to track my boxing workouts with the ActionSleeve and couldn’t be happier. It tracks my calories just the same as if my watch was on my wrist.

Great! Minor issues
Overall the product is great. The ease of mind when it comes to knowing you can lift weights and use dumbbells without potentially cracking the screen is a huge comfort. Some minor quibbles would be fine tuning the adjustment on the arm as well as a convenient way to latch it on. I feel like I have to use my nose to hold it in place whilest my hand secures the strap and...
