"21 Apple Watch Tips and Tricks"
I came across this fabulous article on Tom’s Guide by Jason Snell entitled 21 Apple Watch Tips and Tricks. It’s a great beginner’s guide for the Apple Watch, or for people who want to get to know their Apple Watch and watchOS 3 better. It’s in slide format, so you have to click through 23 screens to see what each of the tips are. So I’ve written out the complete list for you below. I tried to link each one to the corresponding slide so you could go directly to the tip you wanted, but apparently their system doesn’t allow that kind of shortcut. At any rate, scan this list to decide if it’s worth clicking through all of those screens.
