Thus eliminating the constant need to take out the device in order to check notifications. There are numerous ways people can interact with their brand new Apple Watch. They can do that by receiving glanceable notifications, they can feel “taptic” feedback and more.

Health Features

This intelligent watch contributes most of its features to the health. It is designed for everyday use. People can use the watch while running, cycling, and walking, you name it. Its sensors and nutrition apps will help you stay healthy and improve your health in many different fields. So what does set this smart watch apart from the rest? The Apple Watch takes things one step further and gives you the pleasure of using all the benefits from its custom heart rate monitor that can compete with the best world’s running technology.

The Apple Watch has two separate fitness applications installed. Each application is designed to track different elements. The first app is called the Activity app. The app provides users an overview of their entire day with three “rings”. Those “rings” represent burned calories, how often you took a break and what exercises you have completed.

The second App is used to display real-time statistics such as the traveled distance, burned calories, time spent exercising and your pace during the exercises. This app encourages people to set goals for themselves, and finally to beat those goals. Over time, the app will suggest some new fitness goals, and it will start behaving as a personal trainer, but in a digital form.

Siri

As it was long expected, the Apple Watch has integrated Siri. That means that people will be able to ask Siri to perform tasks and to act as a personal assistant, but only in a digital form. Siri can send messages, get directions or to look up information. Quite impressive. To activate Siri all you have to do is hold down the Digital Crown or to raise a wrist and use the command “Hey Siri”.
