All of my friends told me something similar, so I got one.
It just collects dust now.
- The health tracking and gamification of exercise was somewhere between meh and useless for me. I don’t have exercise issues.
- The freedom from the phone has potential, but the ostensible ease of use just isn’t worth the hassle of wearing a watch. I’m ok just pulling out my phone.
- The deep breathing option was probably the app i liked most. Now I just do deep breathing exercises at regular times during the day for, what I assume, are similar effects.
I can certainly imagine that it can improve the quality of life for some (many?) people, but I don’t find myself to be one of these people.
That said, I really wish I did have a profound experience with it. I’m always down for good quality of life improvements.
If anyone has ideas for using the Apple Watch that some people seem to miss, please let me know. I’m willing to give it another go.
