The most useful thing I find in Apple Watch is that as a Voiceover user I can turn on screen curtain, so that no one is able to stick their nose and check what it says on the screen.
It is really hard to explain, but forr some reason sighted people are often trying to be ‘helpful’ by watching over my shoulder and telling me what is on my screen before I figure this out myself. Somehow they believe it is nice of them, while I think it is quite rude…
That's a great point!
Until now I wasn't really interested in an apple watch - thanks Cory, I can see that it would be way more useful than I thought!
They may even be on sale during Black Friday...
Having ADHD it works really well for setting timers and time lapses. Plus, I have my DexCom continuous glucose monitoring as one of my complications. 16:28
I never thought about the applications for ADHD, very interesting.

I love adding items to my shopping list using Siri and checking the current temperature in the morning, along with notifications for various apps. I love my Apple Watch.
Love that!
I absolutely absolutely love my Apple Watch my favorite thing to do on my Watch is the log that I took my medication so I can go back on there and look make sure I didn’t skip anything. I also like to talk on the phone it makes me feel like I’m doing something cool like inspector or something L O L thanks for this video it was
It does still feel futuristic to talk on your watch!
I found your video quite interesting, especially about the Voice Memos. I didn’t know that but I like to keep track of my activities. I like to have the weather app so I have the current temperature and I have found the Apple Watch extremely motivating to keep myself more healthy, and it reminds me to get up and move every hour so and stand and exercise and all that good stuff
Glad you're finding some good uses for the watch!
Thanks, you tips will be very useful to me,
Good to hear!
❤good job
Thabks for ur efforts and perspective!
You're welcome!
Wonderful review, thank you. Are there maps or haptic navigation options, like WayBand or Sunu ?
Yes, when you are using the Maps app to get directions the watch will vibrate when you need to turn, and will vibrate on the side that you need to turn on.
