Hi everyone, My favorite things about the watch are getting notifications on my wrist and the fitness stuff. In a crowded, noisy environment, getting a tap on the wrist when a text message comes in means I'm more likely to know I got the message. I'm not that into fitness, but being reminded to get up and walk around each hour has improved my health, I'm sure.
Sometimes when it's hard to get my phone out in a hurry, being able to answer the phone from my wrist is convenient. There are apps that are really helpful in addition to the built-in ones as well. I have one called Clicker that simply lets you tap it to count things. I knit, and some of the patterns require counting rows. I love having the count on my wrist, where it's easy to access. It's also easier to deal with text messages from the watch without stopping what I'm doing completely. When a new one comes in, I can quickly dictate a reply. I hope that helps.
