Two things I’m really missing are the app dock (used to be a single click of the side button) where I pinned common apps like LA Fitness for my membership card and double-clicking the crown to jump to the previous app. Otherwise, I like that apps are now laid out with just vertical scrolling and I like the new app designs overall.

I had this same experience with it re-announcing directions too which got a little annoying. If you set it to only use offline maps, you won’t see this behavior but searching for destinations is sometimes finicky since it will only look in the offline database and even then may not find everything. I submitted feedback for changing the re-annoucing to a chime since the visual is there on CarPlay anyways. If you haven’t submitted feedback for this, feel free to submit one and reference feedback ID FB13139836 to maybe get more visibility on this.
Aw man, I’m finally going to Dollywood for the first time middle of November. I know this ride has not been very reliable but, it has been a bucket list ride for me ever since it opened. I hope this is for the best but I wish I could experience the launched version.
The first inversion looks like it’ll have some insane hang time!
I’m wondering if this is the same gauge as the Fire in the Hole successor assuming it’s different than conventional I-Box. It should be a similar-sized ride.
This would be a good fit to replace Sand Serpent at Busch Gardens Tampa. I’m excited to start seeing these pop up!
It’s not just that. When connected to an Apple Watch or Apple Pencil (for iPad) the quick toggle maintains these connections along with maintaining handoff and continuity functions between personal devices among other things. In these cases, I think having the quick toggle not fully disable Bluetooth makes more sense to prevent new connections while keeping the existing Watch and Pencil Bluetooth connections active to preserve functionality. Of course, I get that not everyone’s use case is the same, but I rarely need to fully disable the wireless radios. Particularly with Wi-Fi, I use the quick toggle to temporarily disconnect Wi-Fi if I’m on a bad connection away from home. When I return home or to my car (for wireless CarPlay), my phone will reconnect to the respective networks without me needing to remember to re-enable.
Nice! I’m heading out to Carowinds and Dollywood in November. Looking forward to riding Fury 335 again!
Edit: Whoops, unfortunately the repairs did not add 10 feet in height to the ride. Looking forward to riding Fury 325 again!
Not an informational book, but I had this roller coaster maze book as a kid: https://www.amazon.com/Maze-Ing-Roller-Coaster-Mazes/dp/1588650626
I want to buy a copy again to see how many I’ve ridden and how many are defunct by now. I think Taz’s Texas Tornado from AstroWorld was in there and that is long gone.
On it!
Still on it…
Something went wrong. Please try again.
When it was all but confirmed to be a swing launch, I was kind of hoping they’d sneak an airtime hill in the launch track like on Pantheon. Maybe it would be a bit too much at >100 mph, but that hill on Pantheon hits HARD going backwards.
I get scared easily so haunt events don’t quite do it for me lol. I definitely like that night rides are easier to get at this time of year though! I’m looking forward to Smoky Mountain Christmas at Dollywood this year. I really enjoyed the Christmas event at Silver Dollar City so I have high expectations for this one.
