You may want to rearrange the apps into your preferred pattern, so that you can quickly launch the apps you use most. It is possible to rearrange them by using the <em>App Layout<\/em> screen in the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, or by working directly on your Apple Watch. The changes you make on the <em>App Layout<\/em> screen will appear almost instantly on Apple Watch:<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span id=\"On_iPhone\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>On iPhone:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Press <em>Home<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">On the <em>Home<\/em> screen, press the\u00a0<em>Apple Watch app<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Tap <em>My Watch<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Tap <em>App Layout<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Tap and hold the icon you want to move, and you&#8217;ll see that it becomes mobile.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Drag the icon to where you want it to appear, then release it.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Repeat the operation to move other icons.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\"><span id=\"On_Apple_Watch_itself\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>On Apple Watch itself:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Click the <em>Digital Crown<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">When the <em>Home<\/em> screen displays, tap and hold the icon until the icons start to wiggle.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Tap and drag an icon to move it where needed.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Click the <em>Digital Crown<\/em> to end customizing the screen.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\"><span id=\"A_Few_Apps_for_Apple_Watch\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong>A Few Apps for Apple Watch<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Slack<\/em>:\u00a0This app has become the go-to communication platform for tech and media businesses and start-ups. The iOS app provides a fully-featured Slack experience with file sharing, social media integration, as well as powerful search and archiving features, while the Apple Watch app doesn\u2019t. The app\u00a0focuses on what you want a watch to do, which is to notify you only of the things you really need to know about. That means, the same push notifications you\u2019ve set for your iPhone, are able to be put on your watch as well, so you can move from watch to iOS without losing your train of thought.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Tweetbot 4:\u00a0<\/em>Mac and iOS Twitter client bar none.\u00a0The developers have rightly assumed that if you have your phone in your hand, you won\u2019t be using the watch instead, so they\u2019ve concentrated on making an app for when you can\u2019t or don\u2019t want to pull your phone out of your pocket or purse, which is clever. The\u00a0Activity pane shows you what\u2019s happening in your feed, so if somebody\u2019s followed you, or replied or tweeted you, you\u2019ll see it in Activity. Tapping on the item opens the appropriate tweet or user page, and with tweets you\u2019ll see icons for a quick reply, a retweet or a like. If the user pushes into the screen using <em>Force Touch<\/em>, you get an offer to create a new tweet, and both it and the reply option use Siri for dictation, so you can dictate a direct message, or follow\/unfollow accounts from the app too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Instagram:<\/em>\u00a0Like the most Watched versions of iPhone\/iPad apps, the Instagram app is limited compared to its bigger sibling. For example, you can\u2019t use it to take photos with your phone camera and upload them from the Watch, since snapping and uploading are still a remaining job for your iPhone. What this app does do, is show a shortened version of your Instagram feed, offering the most recent posts from people you\u2019ve chosen to receive notifications about. (You can change that list in the iPhone app). Instagram works surprisingly well on your wrist. You can swipe through photos to view or like them, see recent comments and likes on your own photos, and send emoji replies to people\u2019s posts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>PCalc:\u00a0<\/em>This app is a fantastically useful calculator and scientific calculator, but much more importantly, it prevents arguments in restaurants. Simply tell it how much the bill comes to, how many people are paying and how big a tip you want to leave, and the Watch app calculates how much each person should hand over. It supports watchOS 3\u2019s <em>Scribble<\/em> feature too, so you don\u2019t need to dictate or tap on a tiny keypad if you\u2019ve downed that second bottle of wine. Alternatively, you can use the <em>Digital Crown<\/em> to enter the figure in the tip calculator. That\u2019s not all the Watch app can do, though. It includes a converter for distances and other measurements, and if you <em>Force Touch<\/em> the app, you\u2019ll see a\u00a0<em>Send To iPhone<\/em>\u00a0icon as well as the clear and undo buttons. And on the iPhone, the main app is a great tool for serious calculating (and quick sums: there\u2019s a mini-calculator if you <em>Force Touch<\/em> the app icon). It\u2019s not the cheapest calculator app, but it\u2019s worth the money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">(Source: Techradar).<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><span id=\"Links\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong>Links<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Trade in your Apple Watch for fast cash: We at iGotOffer buy your used Apple Watches for the best price online.
