I picked up a series 3 Apple Watch for $229 at Walmart over the holidays. So far it's been used for heart rate tracking, activity monitoring, Pokemon Go workouts while walking to/from work, figuring out when I can IM friends on other continents without waking them up, and quickly checking the weather.

So I turn the following questions to AppleNova:

1.) Who has an Apple Watch and what do you primarily like to do with it??
Just got the Series 4 after having the original Apple Watch since day one.

- Time primarily. I just like to be able to glance down and see what time it is, even though I have 37 other ways of doing the same.
- Notifications. I like to see what notifications are coming in. Mostly iMessages & email, but a few other alerts, such as Nest Cams and delivery notifications.
- Sir. I use Siri on my watch a lot. Setting times, texting my wife, using HomeKit, etc..

2.) What do you wish you could do with it and why? (Like apps you wish you had, etc.)
I'd really like for more health sensors to become available, specifically glucose monitoring. Just think that is the best course forward for this device.

3.) What third party bands are you loving?
I just have a few random knock off sport bands, but don't really wear them. Right now, I just keep the sport band on that came with it mostly, but I also have a blue Classic Buckle from Apple that I really like.

No more Twitter. It's Mastodon now.
