It Can Do So Much More Than Tell TimeBy Judy DixonIn 1 volume For over a decade, the Apple Watch has been a revolutionary piece of technology that has basically allowed users to we ar a computer on their wrist. Among other things, the watch can make emergency calls; play music and podcasts; provide turn-by-turn directions; and perhaps most significantly, monitor and track health data such as sleep patterns, movement and exercise, and heart rate. Whether you're a longtime user of the Apple Watch or curious to learn if it's worth the hype, this book is sure to be informative. Technology writer Judy Dixon describes the hardware and layout of the three main screens (Watch Face, Control Center, and Smart Stack). She also walks the reader through the different watch models and accessories, what apps are already installed and how to install and remove other apps, how to pair the watch with your iPhone and enable VoiceOver, how to customize the watch and connect it to a braille display, and so much more. The book also includes two appendices that cover various gestures for the Apple Watch. See all of our Technology books and tutorials!
