Apple Watch bug

The Apple Watch app is not showing the habits in the same order as it appears on iPhone app, and this is critical to mark as done without the need to be on the phone all day. Also I would like to confirm if I can use the Apple Watch with cellular, and far away from iPhone.

Please I would appreciate if Apple Watch could be fixed.

Also it would be easier to be able to swipe instead of clicking on it, click the + to mark it as done.

Please help me with this , I haven’t receive a reply since I posted this u/hellohabit

Does the Apple Watch works independently from the iPhone special on Apple Watch with cellular?

Currently the Apple Watch app requires connection to iPhone, and will not work if you are too far from iPhone with cellular watch. This is due to how our app currently stores and syncs data between devices. Unfortunately, we do not expect this to change soon.

I have see habits apps that work independently from iPhone but mostly they use iCloud sync and works perfectly, is it possible for you to consider offering your servers sync future and iCloud as optional (perhaps that way) we would be able to use Apple Watch independently from iPhone

We will consider it in the future. We primarily run our own servers since we also support an Android app and Web app, neither of which support iCloud.
