Looks like you have been living under a rock.
I constantly add new stuff to my watch.
Ranging from simple apps to complete workflow solutions.
Give me 2 more month and I can replace one of my DevOps with my watch.
- sirmiller 11y agoTo elaborate a little with one example: 1) One of our server goes down. 2) My watch tells me about it. 3) I can decide a) Reboot it b) Replace it c) Send a callout to my Ops team. All in less than 10 seconds ... used to take 10 minutes, including taking out my laptop, checking what's going on, finding out who's on call. We have a few dozen of these.
- tortilla 11y agoCurious, what apps are you using?
- untog 11y agoAll in less than 10 seconds ... used to take 10 minutes, including taking out my laptop If it's possible with an Apple Watch, surely you could also do it on your iPhone? That's the problem with the watch for me - not that it can't do things, but that those things are also possible on an iPhone, and the extra expense/remembering to charge/etc isn't worth it for the ~3 second convenience.
- moonbug 11y agoWatch or not, why is there a human in that loop at all?
- dgellow 11y agoWouldn't be more pertinent to compare the watch against a smartphone? 1. Server goes down 2. Smartphone tells you about it 3. You can decide 3-a. Reboot 3-b. Replace 3-c. Call ops team Conclusion: Same same, and you still need the smartphone to use the watch. So not really that interesting.
