#1 New Release on Apple Top Charts. The visionary Apple Watch is, at last, poised to take on the world in the Apple Watch Series 4! Whether you are new to Apple products, an expert, or somewhere in the middle, this book is designed to make it easy to find what interests you. I want you to feel comfortable with all aspects of your watch in an environment that encourages you to learn painlessly at your own pace. My goal is to help you enjoy the wonder of discovering your Apple Watch. Along the way, I want to: -Teach you how to use all the features of your Apple Watch. I say "all." As far as I know, I found every darned one of them, but don't sue me if I missed one.-Demonstrate the cool and awe-inspiring features of the Apple Watch. These aren't random tips and tricks. Rather, I have showcased them in a way that lets you find them while exploring a particular feature or topic. -Help you find what you want, when you want it. The organized and detailed Table of Contents includes more than 200 topics. Skip around to your heart's content.-Inspire you with over 100 third-party apps. A few of the categories include entertainment, productivity, sports, photography, and games. We'll also cover integration platforms like IFTTT, which opens up the possibility of unlimited applications.-Focus on the engineering and Apple platforms behind the Apple Watch. The physical device includes the heart rate monitor, accelerometer, gyroscope, and Apple's Force Touch technology. Behind the scenes, learn how Apple is partnering with businesses to extend their HealthKit, HomeKit, and GymKit platforms to enhance your experience for years to come.-List 30 Common Troubleshooting and Maintenance Suggestions.While you can use your Apple Watch with watchOS 6 and later without your iPhone nearby, the Apple iPhone is an integral part of your day-to-day experience. In case you are new to Apple's smartphone and iOS mobile operating system, I've included several topics covering the iPhone setup, screens, and gestures. Those topic headings have an asterisk and special formatting, so you can quickly skip them if you aren't interested. This book is specifically for the Series 4 Apple Watch. While much of the content applies equally to older models, please know that I didn't attempt to cover discontinued features like "glances" or "time travel."As a final selling point, I make an intentional effort to avoid a few of my pet peeves - and those pertain to incomplete (or half-a**ed) instructions. I frequently see directions such as "tap to go to settings," but they leave novice users asking, "tap where?" In another example I read, the instructions mentioned a workout playlist and how to enable it - but assumed nothing went awry (and something ALWAYS goes awry). I intend to cover those bases for you. And if I do, by chance, make the mistake of omitting a critical detail anywhere in this book, know that I was probably distracted by my Apple Watch telling me to get moving or to breathe. I apologize ahead of time; it wasn't intentional. Are you ready for the Apple Watch experience? Let's get started.
