Smart watches and Apps

This is for the discussion of Pebbles etc and their associated apps. Its probably best to keep it away from the horology snobs and it'll apply to both Android and iOS systems (Windows too when / if it happens).

So to kick it off.

I got the Pebble Steel and I'm pretty happy with it. Excellent battery life and an increasing number of Apps available for it now.

Currently using:

Pebblebucks - Yeah, I know the coffee ain't the best but paying for it with your 'hand' freaks out the staff who haven't seen it before! (iOS/Android)

Glance - A must have app for the Pebble, it's a launcher for other app as well. (Android)

UK Transport - Sort of handy but I've got a similar app on the phone

Morpeuz - Sleep tracker / smart alarm. Apparently tracks your light/deep sleep cycle and wakes you up when you go into light sleep. Handy as an alarm when you don't want to wake others up as the watch vibrates on your wrist.

Nav Me - Google Nav on your watch. ON YOUR WATCH! Brilliant!

Evernote - Handy for reminders etc. The tick list function is probably the best feature

Music Boss - Controls your phones music, much better than the inbuilt Pebble system.

Pebble Locker - This ties the watch and phone together as a PIN code security system. As long as the watch is in bluetooth range the phone is on a swipe unlock, as soon as the connection breaks the phone locks to the PIN setting. Great idea! It also doesn't need to be installed on the Pebble itself.

I justified my purchase as I spent three years studying the reinvention of time during the French Revolution...

Thanks for posting - need to check out some of those. Experience with iOS is a... bit more locked down.

I've been looking at Suunto, Garmin, Apple, but this is the one I want.

I can't see the point of expensive (i.e. a £1000 Tag) smart watches. Apple, Pebble, Garmin etc, fine. They're tech and they'll be obsolete in a year and you expect that. But if you're buying a timepiece then you surely want the thing to last 10, 20+ years. A Tag smart watch is too expensive for the tech, and will never be as desirable as a 'proper' watch for people that want a watch.
That's not to say it doesn't look cool today. Maybe if I just had a shitload more money and could think of the Tag like I do my Garmin
