Cognitive distraction, those who suffer this while using hands free also suffer with just talking to a passenger. Some are better than others. My wife, when hands free, will lose focus of the road over the conversation. I will lose focus of the conversation over the road. Not everyone is...

What studies? With AA, my phone stays in my pocket. I don't touch it or look at it. I can put it in the back seat. My eyes don't have to leave the road. How is this any different than talking to a passenger. I have to take my eyes off the road to change my climate control. How is that...

I tried that and it still rung the alarm to the watch. This didn't happen until Oreo came out. I had similar issues with my original pixel XL. Maybe I need to submit a bug report

Well it looks like it was the smartwatch. Anyone know how to block just the alarm function from?

Phones in showers are a necessity

I've been using it for a few years and never had an issue. I've been using it on my pixel 2 XL from day one and it's been Rock Solid.

It is connected to a Moto 360. Maybe I will unpair it tonight and see what happens. I haven't contacted Google support yet. I'll go through a few other things including another factory reset without automatic restoring anything. I really don't have any weird apps that would potentially cause...
