Built-in Apps Not just on the wrist. Designed for it.

Apple Watch is ideal for quick looks and fast interactions. The apps it comes with have been designed to take advantage of that. There are apps you’re familiar with — like Mail, Messages, and Maps — that work in all‑new ways. Apps that become even more convenient on the wrist, like Siri, Music, and Passbook. And completely new apps, like Activity, Workout, and Camera Remote, which turns Apple Watch into a viewfinder for the iSight camera on your iPhone.

Messages

Apple Watch gives you a gentle tap to let you know when you have a new message. Just raise your wrist to see who it’s from and to read the full message. Respond with a preset message, dictate a reply, or record an audio message. You can even send an animated emoji. Watch the “Messages” Guided Tour

Phone

See who’s calling without having to reach for your iPhone. Use the built‑in speaker and microphone for quick chats, or instantly transfer calls to your iPhone for longer conversations. To mute an incoming call, just cover Apple Watch with your hand. Watch the “Phone Calls” Guided Tour

Play

Mail

When email comes right to your wrist, it’s more accessible and easy to manage quickly. You can read an email, flag it, mark it as read or unread, or move it to the Trash. Or open it on your iPhone, where you can type a response.

Play

Calendar

See what’s next in your day or week. Apple Watch sends you meeting reminders that appear on your watch face. When you get calendar invitations, you can accept or decline immediately and even email the organizer using preset responses.

Play

Activity

Stay motivated to sit less, move more, and get some exercise. The three Activity rings provide a simple and graphic way to comprehensively monitor your daily activity at a glance.

Maps

Get directions from your current location. Apple Watch shows you the best route. Turn-by-turn navigation gives you a tap on the wrist to let you know when it’s time to go left — or right. You can also use Siri to search for nearby restaurants, gas stations, and stores. Watch the “Maps” Guided Tour

Play

Passbook

Passbook lets you keep your boarding passes, tickets, and loyalty cards right on your wrist, and alerts you when it’s time to use them. You can also choose which credit or debit card to use for Apple Pay.

Play

Siri

Siri makes interacting with Apple Watch even easier. Just raise your wrist and say, “Hey Siri, open the Workout app.” “Hey Siri, where’s the nearest coffee shop?” Or “Hey Siri, call Elizabeth.” Watch the “Siri” Guided Tour

Play

Music

Control the music on your iPhone. Or leave your iPhone at home and listen to your favorite synced playlist right from Apple Watch using wireless Bluetooth headphones. Watch the “Music” Guided Tour

Play

Camera Remote

Apple Watch can be a viewfinder for the iSight camera on your iPhone. So you can take a perfect selfie or join the group shot. See a live preview of what your iPhone sees, then snap the photo or set the timer on the camera.

Play

Remote

Don’t worry about losing the remote. It’s always right on your wrist. On Apple TV you can swipe around the main menu, scroll through lists, and choose what you’d like to watch. You can also control the iTunes library and iTunes Radio on your Mac or PC.

Play

Weather

Check the weather where you are or for any location around the world. See a detailed report for the day or get the week’s forecast. The day’s conditions are arranged like a watch face, so you get a quick visual snapshot of the weather for the whole day.

Play

Stocks

Easily keep up with the stock market. See current prices, point and percentage changes, and market cap. Each stock features a graph view that lets you track its performance over the past day, week, month, or six months.

Play

Photos

With Apple Watch, your favorite photos are always close at hand. Use the Digital Crown to zoom in to individual images, or swipe to browse through them one at a time.

Play

Alarm

Apple Watch lets you manage, label, and edit multiple alarms with ease. Use the Digital Crown to adjust the hours and minutes to set your wake‑up time. Or use alarms you’ve previously set on your iPhone.

Play

Stopwatch

Apple Watch presents this popular watch function in digital, analog, or hybrid view. There’s also a graph view, which charts a real-time average of your lap times — something you won’t find on other watches.

Play

Timer

Keep track of timed events precisely and easily. As the timer runs, an orange line moves around the dial, giving you a visual sense for how much time has passed and how much is left.

Play

World Clock

Doing business in another time zone? Calling a friend overseas? With one look, you can check the time in different cities around the globe. You can add new locations from your iPhone at any time.

Play

Settings

Enable or disable Airplane mode, Bluetooth, and Do Not Disturb. You can also turn mute on or off, and even ping your iPhone when you’ve misplaced it.
