Apple Watch companion app

Updated

The DisFly companion app supports watchOS 10 or later. It uses your paired iPhone to load forum content and send replies.

Get started

  1. Open DisFly on your iPhone, choose a forum, and sign in.
  2. Open DisFly on your paired Apple Watch. The watch syncs the current forum and account, along with unread alert and message counts.
  3. Tap the refresh button on the watch to update the overview. Opening alerts or private messages asks the iPhone to load that content.

Read and reply

  • Open popular threads on your watch to read the full post and its replies. You can also follow an alert to a thread or open a private conversation.
  • Use the watch keyboard or dictation to enter text. A forum reply or private message can contain up to 1,000 characters. Confirm it to send through your iPhone.
  • For image attachments, CAPTCHAs, or more involved edits, tap Continue on iPhone. When the watch says the content is ready, open DisFly on your iPhone to continue.

Connection and sync

Live reading and replies require DisFly to have started on your paired iPhone and be reachable from the watch. If the connection drops, the watch shows the last synced content and its sync time. Account credentials stay on your iPhone.

Unread counts follow the account selected on your iPhone. The system schedules background transfers. If delivery cannot be confirmed, DisFly keeps the draft so you can check the thread or conversation before sending it again.
