This document provides guidance on designing apps for the Apple Watch. It discusses the basics of familiarizing yourself with the device and interface. Key considerations for app design include only including features useful on the watch, prioritizing information, and ensuring a consistent workflow with the iPhone app. The document also outlines some simple frameworks for information-based apps that prioritize delivery of weather or transportation updates, as well as instruction-based apps like navigation. Overall, the document advises testing designs on the watch itself and questioning whether an app truly adds value when accessed from the wrist.
