I’m about to go through all of my accounts and make sure 2FA is on where available. Currently everything’s spread across a few different auth apps but I’d love solid Watch support that won’t be yanked later.
Is Duo a winner? Any other favorites?
Somebody let me know if there is an app that lets you control Wiser TRVs from your watch pls

VoiceinaCan to control my Alexa
Nano for reddit
APNews
Aautosleep
heartwatch
Workoutdoors
These plus Carrot Weather for me.
Carrot is hilarious. Getting insulted by my weather app 10/10 would recommend.
I used to use nano, till I discovered lolllybot on this sub. Check it out!
I thought nano was broken with the API changes?
Nope I think it read it doesn’t meet the traffic threshold or something like that, same as Lollybot

Convenient, but not worth it. That goes to the Watch 8 onwards. I currently have a watch 7
Built in to Apple Health
Will this read temps at all times or only during the sleep focus on
Drafts Things Zones Autosleep Lyd Sports alerts
Trying to stay off my phone, but here we are
Clockology
Gentler Streak, HeartWatch & AutoSleep, Training Today, CardioBot and Hello Weather.
What does Training Today provide that Gentler Streak doesn’t?
A simple scale from 1-10
Here are my favorite third party apps:
WorkOutDoors - Offline maps!
Just Press Record - If you set it as a complication, as soon as you press it it starts recording and you'll be able to see the recording on all your devices and get a transcription of what you said.
Athlytic - Basically turns your Apple Watch into a Whoop strap for much cheaper.
Watch for Tesla - Control my Tesla from my Watch + turns it into the key for my Tesla
MiniCord - Discord for my Watch. I only use it for messages
Pro Compass For Watch - It's similar to the built in compass app BUT it actually shows your waypoints on an actual freaking map (it's mind blowing that the stock compass app doesn't have this)
ThermoWatch - Control Nest thermostat from Watch
uBrowser - Browser for the Watch.
Hello Weather - The new Apple weather app requires too many clicks to see what I want. Hello Weather shows me it much faster.
I will give uBrowser a try.
Note the Apple Watch natively supports some web browsing if you ask Siri to “Search web for…” and click then click “open page” on the results.
Thanks for the detailed app write-ups!
Just adding that you don’t need to ask Siri, you simply can create shortcut and expose it to the watch, from there you can use it in many ways, including the action button
Liking the look and sound of Athlytic! Good shout.
Do you have a link to Pro Compass? Can’t find it anywhere.
It’s hard to find because it’s only available on the Watch. So you have to search on the App Store directly on your Watch. I don’t think I can link to it
I was able to find it here

Thanks!!
What do you use Just press Record for? There are probably a bunch of things but I just never think of it.
Streamlets. Plays radio from the watch. Handy if I don't have my phone and I don't want my girlfriend to hear me pooping.
Voice in a Can. Carrot weather. The Oregon trail step tracker.
Oregon Trail Steptracker?!?! Technology is amazing.
I remember when I had a Fitbit I heard about this app and was jealous I couldn’t get it. I am now running to the App Store
SwingU is great if you’re a golfer
Carrot weather. Lumy.
Spotify
Fitness and Workout apps
Can you be more specific
The best apps that I use daily are the Fitness and the Workout apps.
Could you please share a link to the Workout app because I'd like to check it out but can't seem to find anything named simply "Workout" in the appstore

Hevy
It wasn't until getting a watch and then finding the best workout tracking app that I was able to commit to logging workouts over a long period of time. Before that, the process was always to cumbersome using my phone - and I would eventually get annoyed and stop tracking.
Thermo Watch to control the Nest thermostat
HEVY!!
uBrowser, Grow
Here we go: Spotify, Stocks, Elk, Gentler Streak, HiCoffee, Tide Guide, Walkie-Talkie

WorkOutDoors - a must for run/hiking The Racing Line - a must for motorsport fans.
Two weeks into owning an AppleWatch and am enjoying AutoSleep, WaterLlama and Gentler Streak.
What is auto sleep?
Sleep tracking app, I like it because it does “smart alarms” so will try and wake me up during light sleep within the half hour window that I set my alarm for.
