There are a few; however, that we like and use frequently.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Runkeeper:\u00a0<\/em>A long-time favorite of healthy folks, this app happens to have a snazzy Apple Watch app. On the first series of Apple Watch, Runkeeper will communicate with your iPhone, providing updates on your current progress as you wheeze your way around. If you have an Apple Watch Series 2, just turn off Run With Phone, and the <em>Runkeeper<\/em> app will use your wearable\u2019s GPS to build a map of your journey. It\u2019s a great app for checking out routes of successful runs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Sleep++:<\/em>\u00a0This app grabs information while you\u2019re snoozing. Generally speaking, it\u2019s designed to track motion, thereby figuring out how restless you are. If it turns out you\u2019re always rolling about at 3am, it might be worth seeing if your neighbor\u2019s performing impromptu guitar solos around that time. With watchOS 3\u2019s Background Refresh, Sleep++ is more responsive when you wake, enabling you to immediately analyze your last night\u2019s sleep. And although you might wonder when you can charge your Apple Watch if you wear it overnight, the developer notes that shouldn\u2019t be a concern.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Productive:\u00a0<\/em>On the iPhone, this app is designed to help you build good habits. You create individual habits and say how often you want to do them. The app then builds daily schedules, split into morning, afternoon and evening. The Apple Watch app is a basic companion \u2013 but a smart one. On launch, it\u2019ll switch to the relevant list, enabling you to quickly check through your schedule.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Clicker:<\/em>\u00a0This app gives you a big number on the screen that increments every time you tap, allowing you to count whatever you need to in your busy life-whether it be a number of laps, to the number of times your child whines throughout the day. Beyond that, you can clear the number or subtract one from it. You can also keep track of your counting by way of a complication. If that feels a bit too limited, Tally 2 is a useful alternative, with multiple counters and the means to define custom steps. But its lack of a complication feels like a missed opportunity on Apple Watch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>1Password:<\/em>\u00a0proves to be handy on an Apple Watch as well. Sensibly, it doesn\u2019t attempt to send your vault\u2019s entire contents to your wrist; instead, you activate individual items, such as a credit card, website login, or a note. These then will show up as bright, trappable button inside the Apple Watch app. <em>1Password<\/em> for Apple Watch can be secured by a PIN. You can also force-quit the app after use, to make doubly sure your information isn\u2019t accessible should someone pilfer your Apple Watch, your iPhone, and presumably also your finger to crack the Touch ID security feature.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Cheatsheet:\u00a0<\/em>If you don\u2019t need the security of 1Password, but still fancy quick access to bite-sized notes (such as Wi-Fi passwords and door combinations), <em>Cheatsheet<\/em>\u2019s an excellent download. Each tiny information nugget comprises a piece of text and custom icon, and cheats can be synced from the iPhone app. You can edit and create new cheats directly on Apple Watch by way of dictation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Overcast<\/em>:\u00a0Given the convenience factor of the Apple Watch being at the end of your arm, it follows that plenty of \u2018app remotes\u2019 now lurk on the App Store. <em>Overcast<\/em> is an interesting case, because the developer made an Apple Watch remote to control his excellent iPhone podcast app; decided it was rubbish, and rethought it from scratch. The result is a massive improvement, based around a static \u2018now playing\u2019 screen which uses Force Touch to access the app\u2019s effects and your full list of podcasts.<\/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\">To save money for a new iDevice, trade in your used Apple Watch for the best price online.
