Psst. Everyone’s not you and that’s OK.

I use mine constantly throughout the day. I don’t like being always tethered to my phone. I use it for meeting reminders, water tracking, timers, Strava for running, tracking my heart rate for a fitness app, to control audiobooks I’m listening to, sleep tracking, and lots of other stuff. Plus Apple Pay is the bomb. Running to grab a few groceries, don’t have to grope around my purse for a wallet or even my phone. I just lift my wrist and pay. Could not be easier.

I mean, cool if it doesn’t work for you, but it’s hardly useless.

Np. I agree with the PP. I wanted to like the Apple Watch so I could go out without my phone. That was the only pro. You need to charge it 1-2 hours a day. That is easy when I’m at a desk job, but on the weekends it’s tough. My garmin and Fitbit need charged once every 10 days. How has apple not managed to come close to that? Ten days of charge versus 18 hours? My garmin can do almost anything the Apple Watch can, including Apple Pay. Fitbit has Apple Pay too.

I mean you are agreeing with both PPs. The Fermin works better for you, the Apple Watch for the other PP

I charge mine from 8-10pm. But I have an older one and now it’s getting to about 5-15% at 8pm. Used to be at 40%.

What is water tracking? I just drink when I’m thirsty. You need your watch to tell you it’s time to drink? I can’t imagine being so tethered to my watch for basic needs. You must be really busy.
