Apple Watch was initially released as a companion to iPhone users. The device is sync to the mobile phone and has functions that allow owners to use their iPhones better.
Although Apple Watch already has many features and apps installed, there are still third-party applications that are considered must-haves to maximize the use of the smartwatch and make life a bit easier. These are downloadable, and listed below are some of the best apps that should not be missed.
FlickType
This is an app that will allow users to enjoy a real QWERTY keyboard on the small screen of the Apple Watch. It uses gesture typing for an easier way to input the text. It also features an impressive algorithm that will make sure every word is correct.
AutoSleep
9to5Mac also listed AutoSleep as another app to download in the AppleWatch. This will help the user in tracking sleep more accurately. Some of the users attested that this is a great application that consistently monitors the sleeping habits of the user.
Chirp for Twitter
Most people today have a social media account, and Twitter is one of the most commonly used platforms. Installing Chirp in the Apple Watch will allow the user to browse Twitter directly.
It is also possible to check direct messages, timelines, and trending searches. It is downloadable via the App Store.
Spotify
For music lovers, having Spotify on the wrists is a big treat. Once installed in the smartwatch, streaming favorite songs on Spotify will be a breeze. What’s more, streaming podcasts directly from the watch is also possible.
Walkie-Talkie
On the other hand, CNET suggests Walkie-Talkie. The publication stated that with this app, chatting with another person who is wearing an Apple Watch is possible. As long as both parties are connected via Bluetooth, WIFI, or iPhone, they can talk using their watch.
ECG
Lastly, health is very important, and installing the ECG app will be helpful. It can measure heart rate via its electrical heart rate sensor, which works just like the actual electrocardiogram.
