Bought an Apple Watch? You must have these five apps

Chances are that you bought an Apple Watch around Black Friday or before the holidays. But now that you have a smart clock, which apps should you install first? We have 5 tips for you!

Once you’ve bought (or been given) an Apple Watch, we can imagine the App Store can be a bit overwhelming. That is why we have listed five useful apps for you.

Apple Watch apps: From better health to rain advice

Of course there are specific apps for many applications. And often it is more than one. In any case, these are fine apps that cover the most basic matters.

#1 Rain radar on the Apple Watch

Buienradar is without a doubt one of the finest inventions ever. There is something magical about the fact that we can predict rain to the minute. And that magic on your wrist is a perfect combination.

#2 Home app from Apple

Apple has an excellent app called Home. This can be found on your phone (have to swipe down) on your screen. On an Apple Watch, it can be found among your apps.
With Home you can easily connect a variety of smart devices, such as lamps, your thermostat or your TV. You can then operate it with your watch.

#3 Cheat sheet

If you are also forgetful, this is an ideal app. With Cheatsheet you can easily take notes. You cannot type whole pieces of text, but it is useful for saving passwords, for example.

#4 Stocard

This is a very useful app if you have many loyalty cards, such as discount cards. With Stocard you save them all in the app so you can’t forget them. You only have to have the correct card scanned at the checkout and pay with Apple Pay on your Apple Watch.

#5 Run keeper

If you’ve taken an Apple Watch to track your sports performance, Runkeeper is perfect. It is possibly the most popular sports app in the App Store. Workouts such as walking, running and cycling are all neatly tracked.

So these are all apps that we highly recommend if you are now the happy owner of a new Apple Watch. Here you will find other great tips.
