The Apple Watch has come a long way since 2015 and has evolved into a an essential piece of wearable technology, that once a person experiences it, it is difficult to switch back to an old-school watch. With the introduction of the App Store on the Apple Watch on WatchOS 6, the functionality of the Apple Watch has reached an all-time high, with users being able to find apps that suit close to every need of theirs. In this plethora of apps I have selected 5 apps that will refine your Apple Watch experience.

Just Calendar

The built-in calendar app is pretty good, however there is a very annoying limitation in the form of only being able to see the days of the current month. “Just Calendar” solves the issue brilliantly. With this app you can not only preview all the months of the year, but with a recent update you can also preview past or future years.

Complicate It

This app is mainly for people who are all for customisation. Complicate It is app that allows you to make custom watch face complications. This can vary from text to timers. Once you get the hang of it, you can create some very interesting stuff.

Bear

Contrary to its name, the Bear app is a notes app, with which you can make, preview and save notes directly from your Apple Watch. Even though there are a handful of alternatives, this is my personal favourite.

Ping Pong

Who hasn’t been in a situation where they cannot use their phones and are so bored to the extend of wanting to play a game on the Apple Watch? Well “ping pong” is a pink-pink game, obviously, and you can control your “puck” with the digital crown. There are a couple of other modes, it certainly is not the most fancy game in the world, but it sure is enjoyable and helps pass the time.

Parrity

You probably know that the only way to search on the internet for something on the Apple Watch is via Siri. But what if I told you that there is a better way? Parrity is one of the most useful apps you can get.

It is essentially a fully-functional web browser that runs directly on your Apple Watch. From it you can search for and load almost every website, even our blog. Definitely an app that everyone needs to try.
