Apple Watch represents a new chapter in the relationship people have with technology. It’s the most personal product Apple has ever made, because it’s the first one designed to be worn.

Calendar. See what’s next in your day or month. Apple Watch sends you meeting reminders, as well as calendar invitations you can accept or decline directly from your wrist.

Stopwatch. Apple watch presents this popular watch function in digital, analog, or bybrid view. It can even show you a real-time average of your lap times on a graph-something you won’t find on other watches.

Photos. Apple Watch keeps your favorite photos on your wrist. You can zoom into photos with the Digital Crown, then swipe to scroll through them,

Siri. Raise your wrist and say“Hey Siri.” Then ask to view your next event, find the nearest coffee shop, and more. Siri is closer than ever with Apple Watch.
