And with the at a glance nature of the Apple Watch, reminders are now more immediate than ever before.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>24me Smart Personal Assistant<\/em> &#8211; a productivity slash calendar app, which describes itself as a \u201csmart and automatic personal assistant\u201d. There is a whole lot of productivity power involved here. The app gives you an at a glance look at your day including the things you have to do: meetings, classes, bills to be paid, etc. The user can bring up maps to help him or her reach their destination, get traffic alerts to ease navigation, and even weather updates to work out how best to arrange the day schedule.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Weel Calendar<\/em> &#8211; For those who have used <em>Week Calendar<\/em> on the iPhone, this update for the Apple Watch should offer few surprises. The app gives an insightful look at the day ahead, or tomorrow\u2019s events, allowing you to keep to your daily schedule with a quick glance at your watch. You can go in and select which calendars you wish to show on your Apple Watch from your iPhone, so as to condense your schedule info into the most important stuff, then use Siri to add any info you consider worthy of adding.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Tempo Smart Calendar<\/em> &#8211; another well designed calendar app, and the same goes for its recent Apple Watch update. There is a certain emphasis here on the minute to minute management of each day, and in fact the app provides some nice functionality when it comes to updating those you are involved with of your whereabouts. If you are running late for a meeting, for example, you can simply use the quick predefined message function to send &#8220;coming late&#8221; or &#8220;I&#8217;ll be back&#8221; messages from your Apple watch to the people in question.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Moleskine Timepage<\/em>\u00a0&#8211; marketed as the most elegant calendar apps for your pocket and your wrist. The app has a very powerful calendar functionality that makes your management of each day and week a whole lot easier. The good thing about this calendar app, aside from the weather capabilities, is that your schedule is presented as a continuous timeline that can be scrolled through at will and makes it easy to flick between a single day and a whole week with a tap.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Sunrise Calendar app &#8211;<\/em> The Sunrise keeps things simple and in many ways condense the functionality we\u2019ve grown used to accessing on the iPhone or the iPad. Sunrise is particularly useful if you use Exchange, Google Calendar and iCloud, syncing in with all of these different platforms to make organizing your life a whole lot easier. It also connects with social apps such as Facebook and Foursquare and productivity apps like Evernote and Trello to ensure that you are able to pass your schedule info from app to app with ease.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Fantastical 2<\/em>\u00a0&#8211; it has a good interface and combines simplicity with complicated data to bring a whole new kind of power to your wrist when it comes to scheduling your time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span id=\"Links\">Links<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Trade in your old Apple Watch model.
