Got one for my partner also. She and I are doing Noom together. We have series 8’s, so what are the apps and features you can’t live without? Also doing some international traveling at the end of the summer (hello there, Ireland!).

    Congrats! I also just switched from a 4 (40mm) to an ultra and feel you a bit :)

    • „locate iPhone“ is out most used feature I guess
    • being wakened by gentle taps on the wrist without the SO been wakened is nice.
    • during work I usually don’t pay attention to my daily steps. StepsApp has some great complications for that.
    • flashlight. Also often used
    • timer! Tea, food in oven, „you are aloud to play 10 more minutes“, „can you call me back in x minutes?“, …
    • Shazam
    • Remote to steer the Apple TV
    • Home, to view who is at the door and communicate with them.
    • bike navigation is extraordinary I learned. Not the routing so much but the information displayed on the Apple Watch is just enough.

    Edit: and enjoy your stay in Ireland!

      Thanks! Counting steps and maybe biking (next big purchase I think) will be a huge bonus.
