I love what you said about using it to be more present in the moment! I have ADHD and I use my apple watch largely as a "middle man" between me and the timesuck apps that live on my phone, like you said. Checking a text on my watch means I don't end up on Instagram or Twitter for two hours, and it helps me moderate how much time I am spending on apps like those too. We love using tech to help keep us on track!
That’s great!! I’m looking at getting one as well! I have ADHD, Bipolar disorder and PTSD, and I’m also a student. I’m really excited about the Apple Watch and what it means for me and my life!!
One of the reasons I bought an Apple Watch. I have access to all the apps/info I actually need. And all my time suck apps are left on my iPhone. I can keep my phone put up & ignore it just fine when I’m not using it for things I *need*. One text is all it takes for my ADHD to drag me down a rabbit hole lol
I’m so glad you mentioned the fact that it helps you focus because there are no social media apps on your Watch; I shared the same benefit with some friends who were concerned about it being a distraction. Great discussion, thanks for the video, Caitlin!
Loved your video and channel definitely have me as a subscriber now haha. I currently have the Apple Watch Series 5 and love it, have had it for just about a year now with no complaints. I have grown onto my watch to the point where I can’t go anywhere w/o it haha. For people looking or thinking to invest I would say go for it. I have gotten so many of my friends on the Apple Watch wave. However, do not go in expecting amazing battery life like some of the other smartwatches in the market. The Apple Watch is packed with so many amazing features and capabilities that other smartwatches could never come close to having in the Apple ecosystem. U won’t regret it.
I have that same habit tracker on mine, and just a tip - when you're setting up a new habit, the habits with a tiny little heart next to them are the ones that pull data from Health, so for example, water or mindfulness minutes, steps or standing hours. Super helpful as it's completely automated (also because the Apple Watch doesn't come with any Mindfulness goals). Totally agree with you though about the notifications - I get so many Snapchat notifications and since it doesn't have an apple watch app, I can just view who pinged me and decide if it's worth picking my phone up for! I haven't yet committed to putting my phone in my bag though - it's always glued to my hand
Girl get yourself Flo app. Been using that for yearssss on my phone. Just got a Apple Watch yesterday for my 22nd and that was the first thing I downloaded 😂
Thank you for adding time stamps! It allows me to rewatch the video very easily, I kept downloading new apps (habit specifically) and let the video play on. Then went back to many diff parts to pay full attention 😂😂😂 Caitlins corner videos require full focus to appreciate the onscreen edits!
this is literally the only tech/review video I’ve watched from beginning to end! You explain everything so clearly and I love that!! You have the best vibe too and the aesthetics of this video are just amazing
love the timestamps and titles used. i like the clean structure and overview of the video. just wanted to give kudos for that, since most videos nowadays are kind jumbled and want you to stay for the entire thing.
One of my favourite things about the apple watch is the sport band, I can't normally wear watches as the straps irritate my skin. But I can wear this all day every day with no problems!
At first I was overwhelmed by all the notifications I was receiving on my watch throughout the day until I realized I could turn off all notifications on my phone, mirror my watch and left only the messages, phone, and calendar notifications on my phone. That way I can control which notifications I want to see. I really don't need to see all the notifications from IG or FB all day, so that helped. I also like the sleep app to track and keep a record. I am a good sleeper but I was curious to know the stages of my sleep. I also use the heart app alot to track my heart rate and steps for the health app. I have gotten a lot of good use out of my watch and I am so glad I have one. Hope you continue to enjoy yours.
I agree with your review 100% - I too bought my first Apple watch (6 series) in 2020 to accelerate my healthy habit tracking. I wish this video had been made then because I struggled finding content on how to use it. I don't know if this is offered everywhere, but when I received my watch, Apple reached out to schedule a time to review the features with me and that helped me integrate the watch into my phone apps. Keep up with the great content!
I have been struggling at work or while driving to quickly glance at things and you showed me that I could put it all on the watch face. I didn’t know that and you have now made my life so much easier. I’m glad I watched this video.👍🏻👍🏻
Just purchased my first Apple Watch this week as a bday gift. Went with the SE. Like you I already have an iPhone and AirPods so it made sense to go with an Apple Watch. This video has been extremely helpful! Thank you ☺️
I recently got an apple 🍎 watch on my birthday like April and I am still learning on how to use the icons and discover. Please provide more content on this so that we can learn as well. Thank you. 🥰
I just got the series 8 since my school is now doing yondr pouches. I totally recommend It, 10/10. I don’t have any health issues, but I do get sick frequently, with the yondr pouches im not able to tell my parents I’m going home or how I feel, I find the apple watch VERY useful
Just ordered an Apple Watch 8 45mm and can't wait to get it now after watching your video. You are an excellent speaker and I'll be watching more of your videos. I'm new to the Apple Watch world although I have a Mac Pro, iPhone and Ipads. Thank you.
Omg, thank you Caitlin. I‘ve been thinking about getting one for my birthday. The expenses tracker is one I‘m absolutely gonna use. I think one my most used will be the podcasts app and maybe the To-Do-List.
Even with the WiFi version, you can still do iMessage & FaceTime audio without your iPhone (but connected to WiFi). I use the Watch to take phone calls when I'm in the yard & don't have Airpods in. Exercise features do a great job of tracking & really make me feel guilty if I don't meet my goals. It's a great safety gift for elderly parents. Excellent video! Thanks!
I got the Series 6 after my cardiologist put me on a rhythm medication only if I had a heart rate monitor..so it gave me the impetus to treat myself. I love the tips you shared!
My Fitbit just broke and I didn’t know if I wanted another one or get the Apple Watch. This is my third Fitbit. I love the program on it but after seeing your video and others, I’m getting the Apple. Your video came out just in time. ❤️
Got iPhone and apple on the same day, I love that aw series 7 has mini keyboard very nice thing. And that only series 7 and 8 watch face "Contour" is so good i use it everyday.
"I always do that when I'm not crossing a road... don't do that while crossing a road" 😂😂 Loved learning more about the benefits you've experienced I've been on the fence about getting one for myself
I have had an Apple Watch since January of 2020 (bought it for myself as a birthday present) and am now on my second one. I have the series 6 in silver (40mm) :D I also loved it. The accountability feature do fade after a while as you kind of start to ignore them a bit more and feel less motivated ... but I am trying hard to get back into it because I'm telling myself, that at the end of the day I'm only cheating myself if I cheat my Apple Watch :D
Lolol that’s fair - can totally see how that could happen! 🤣 still very much so getting lots of satisfaction from filling in those rings so hoping that feeling lasts for a while 🤪
@@caitlinmariedasilva it probably will and apple is the best out there for this (my opinion) because you get a new monthly challenge every single month and there are tons of other awards to work towards 😅
I find the best way to answer to do I want/need an Apple Watch is, you can do practically anything without it, but it will definitely be a great assistant to your daily life. I can’t explain why I bought one but I can always explain what I use it for
Great vid. I’m a long time Apple Watch user and always wished there were more complications available on a watch face. You’re a genius to have different complications on diff faces. I used to setup faces with the exact complications. Now I have my regular daily, a workout, a productivity and a fun one with time only. I just scroll thru which watch face I need at the time :)
Caitlin this is an amazing video and so informative! I’m going to be getting an Apple Watch in a couple of weeks and im extremely glad I watched your video for ways the Apple Watch can be helpful in daily life
Thank you for this video! I have finally caved and my apple watch comes in next month. I was like you a little worried about the distractions but now I'm even more excited to track habits and log study hours more efficient and have fewer social media distractions! Especially the be more present is one of the recent goals I'm working on and your video leans right into that! Saved this video to use when I'm going to set my watch up!
@@w0wlaura I love it! Have had it since December and cant live without it anymore. Started with a few notifications as possible and worked my way up to where I wanted it. Now it is a main part of my routine and it helps me with overall fitness. I have a water intake goal added next to the goals from the rings and love the easy access to it. Also use it to switch on my smart lights in my home. For studying, I love that it seamlessly works with the new focus modes, so I get even fewer distractions when I want that. The battery of the series 7 is great and the fast charger is a must. Also got a few budget-friendly watch straps to match my outfits so I can wear it anywhere I want. If you are thinking of getting a smartwatch I definitely recommend the apple watch. Before I had a Fitbit but it didn't run as smooth and synchronized as I wanted it with my phone.

I invested on a apple watch and i am a tech enthusiast, even though I live in brazil (tech here is REALLY expensive). just like you, it took me a long while to get into the smart watch world and i am loving my watch, especially since I have many apple products btw: if you or anyone here wants to practice portuguese, just let me know 🥰
How long were you using this watch before you created this video review? I’d be very interested to see a follow up video in about 3 months to see if you are using all of the features that you are using now. When I buy something new I find it really fun and interesting and then after a month or so I get bored and go back to my old habits but with the watch I can see some benefits but then I don’t like the privacy issues around things like Siri or Health data. I’m thinking of getting a smart watch but not sure if it’s worth it for me.
I’ve had mine since december and honestly it’s one of the best things i’ve owned. it’s so convenient and definitely helps with distractions because you can get notifications but you can’t really pursue them, so you’re still connected but not overly
I went from never wearing a watch my entire life three years ago. To wearing a watch every single day and feeling like I’m missing something without it since getting an Apple Watch. You don’t realize how convenient it is to have until it’s on your wrist ! Then you feel odd without it.
Love this honest review! I was just wondering, because If i'd get it then I'll also get it for my health, how do the activity rings work? Is it something you would see in different apps or something on your phone too or are there new things it tracks in a way that motivates you more? Also yes to tech reviews HAHA
I love your video! I just got an Apple Watch again now that the features are better & the design is more comfortable. Before, it felt like an extension of the phone. Also, you can save space with that Sound Hound app. If you ask Siri what song is playing, they will tell you & show you the album cover. My niece told me that hack!
I’ve downloaded that Habit app and I can’t seem to sync it to my watch at all. Am I missing something? Can’t seem to find anything online either about how to correctly set it up.
I’m thinking of getting one so I can separate more and be more present. So I can get texts but not lose an hour on Instagram. 🤣 Or listen to podcasts without zoning out on iPhone games.
Thanks for the Amazon link on the leather band (had to search the product on US Amazon, but used the product info to search) was looking for something a little more dressed up, and had a just enough $$$ on an Amazon gift card to get one, should get it Thursday.
This was super helpful! What about charging the watch? This is my reason for not buying immediately. Trying to decide between the Fitbit Sense and Apple Watch for that very reason.
This. was. fantastic. You are the best at finding the best tools. I am underutilizing my watch and will be fixing that pronto haha. Do you feel like the 6 series does a good job at recognizing when you are standing? I have an older one and I can be doing dishes for a half hour and it will still tell me time to stand. **eyeroll**
I have the og Apple Watch, like it was even called series 1 yet lol. It was replaced once by Apple due to a battery defect but other than that it’s been good. I love it sooooo much tho!
I got the money coach app based on your video but when I open it up on my watch it doesn’t let me add an expense. I can only view a summary. Do you know what I,m doing wrong? 🤔
Hi there! I loved your video! and I have a little question, I downloaded the moneycoah app but it shows me a different interface than yours and when I add a transaction it doesn't let me pick any category, it gives me the option to search but nothing appears when I look (for example) Food. I can only add transactions on my iPhone and on my watch I can't do anything :(
loved the video!!! will def look into the apps, so useful:) do u happen to have any tips for keeping your apple watch screen scratch-free? I'm clumsy, and have knocked my watch into cupboards, chairs, doorways, and now my screen is so scratched. i got a little plastic case that goes over the whole watch, but it only made it hard to use, and trapped water below the plastic:(
Oh really? I usually charge it while I read before bed and then it’s good to go for the next 24 hours (I don’t always have it on while sleeping though so maybe that’s why)
@@caitlinmariedasilva Yes, I think I might’ve been spoiled by my experience w/ Fitbit, wherein I charged it maybe 2-3 times tops per week, as opposed to each day! Haha! P.S. I truly appreciate you taking the time to reply. I also graduated from UofT & from Toronto, but currently living in Seoul, South Korea! Your videos are a form of self-care and make me homesick from time-to-time 😭💕
I refer to my Apple Watch as the most useless useful thing I own. Is it a necessity? Absolutely not. Does it make some elements of my life easier? Yup. Especially the ping feature 😂

Hey! Really nice video! Keep practicing Portuguese. Estou assistindo e amando! Beijos do Brasil.
I’ve downloaded that Habit app and I can’t seem to sync it to my watch at all. Am I missing something? Can’t seem to find anything online either about how to correctly set it up.
That size is uuuuge. Even as a male, I went with the 40mm. I'm sure I'm just not used to it, but I like the more compact size.
I really like the inspirational quotes on your watch. How can I find the app for it?
Hi do you have your own App Store on your apple watch (so you could download whatever game or app you want?)
Thank you so much for this, lots of tips!
I’m thinking of getting one so I can separate more and be more present. So I can get texts but not lose an hour on Instagram. 🤣 Or listen to podcasts without zoning out on iPhone games.
I spy with my little eye a Cricut machine...does that mean Cricut videos are coming? I desperately need inspiration to use mine 😂
I have that same habit app. And I love it. New subscriber here 😊
I have pots and ahsma which is really nice for me to keep track of my body and my heart rate so I don’t pass out lol.
Thanks for the Amazon link on the leather band (had to search the product on US Amazon, but used the product info to search) was looking for something a little more dressed up, and had a just enough $$$ on an Amazon gift card to get one, should get it Thursday.
You are so pretty and I love watching your videos
That’s very kind of you to say- thanks so much 🥺♥️
Thanks quite honest review
No show off
What weather app do you use?
This was super helpful! What about charging the watch? This is my reason for not buying immediately. Trying to decide between the Fitbit Sense and Apple Watch for that very reason.
I’ve had a Fitbit that I charge every 3 or so days but Apple Watch is an everyday thing.
This. was. fantastic. You are the best at finding the best tools. I am underutilizing my watch and will be fixing that pronto haha. Do you feel like the 6 series does a good job at recognizing when you are standing? I have an older one and I can be doing dishes for a half hour and it will still tell me time to stand. **eyeroll**
Same! I’ll be standing at work for a couple of hours and it’ll tell me to stand. For reference I have an Apple Watch SE
Pretty good video. A good habit app that I use is HabitMinder
I have the og Apple Watch, like it was even called series 1 yet lol. It was replaced once by Apple due to a battery defect but other than that it’s been good. I love it sooooo much tho!
Thank youu! I love you video, I'm using period calendar tracking app and it is integrated with Apple Watch I hope this helps you! :)
Get the cellular version & the watch comes into its own.
Oh you live in Toronto ? I love this city 🥰 thx for the video
Hi from Belgium 🇧🇪
Hi . I love your nail polish!. What color and brand is it? If u don’t mind me asking .. love your watch to. I just got one
I got the money coach app based on your video but when I open it up on my watch it doesn’t let me add an expense. I can only view a summary. Do you know what I,m doing wrong? 🤔
With which app did you make de watch face at 5:23?
Ty so much. Love your video!!
The series 6 40mm screen looks slightly bigger than the SE 40mm which is mental as they're meant to be the same size 🤔
I have se 44mm
Hi there! I loved your video! and I have a little question, I downloaded the moneycoah app but it shows me a different interface than yours and when I add a transaction it doesn't let me pick any category, it gives me the option to search but nothing appears when I look (for example) Food. I can only add transactions on my iPhone and on my watch I can't do anything :(
Great vid thanks for sharing
This was so helpful!!
loved the video!!! will def look into the apps, so useful:) do u happen to have any tips for keeping your apple watch screen scratch-free? I'm clumsy, and have knocked my watch into cupboards, chairs, doorways, and now my screen is so scratched. i got a little plastic case that goes over the whole watch, but it only made it hard to use, and trapped water below the plastic:(
Do you use a screen protector for your apple watch?
Hoy do you add like a second face by scrolling don?
Do you use Always on Display?
My only qualm is the poor battery life! I find I charge my Apple Watch 6 series far too frequently 😭
Oh really? I usually charge it while I read before bed and then it’s good to go for the next 24 hours (I don’t always have it on while sleeping though so maybe that’s why)
@@caitlinmariedasilva Yes, I think I might’ve been spoiled by my experience w/ Fitbit, wherein I charged it maybe 2-3 times tops per week, as opposed to each day! Haha!
P.S. I truly appreciate you taking the time to reply. I also graduated from UofT & from Toronto, but currently living in Seoul, South Korea! Your videos are a form of self-care and make me homesick from time-to-time 😭💕
This was super helpful. Thank you
Thanks for this info. Can you get the Audible app on the watch?
Yes! You have to download the book on the watch in the app
Very helpful!
I refer to my Apple Watch as the most useless useful thing I own. Is it a necessity? Absolutely not. Does it make some elements of my life easier? Yup. Especially the ping feature 😂
