map will appear showing your current location. To find an address, tap your finger firmly on the screen. You’ll get an option to either search for the address or use one of your contacts’ addresses. When you search for an address, it will give you the option to use a recently used address, or speak the address through dictation.
When the address comes up, there will be two options: driving directions and walking directions. Walking will not only change the time it will take, but also take you down paths a car cannot go. Once you make your selection by tapping, just hit the Start button.
One of the cool features about the map is the turn-by-turn direction. When it’s time to make a turn, your watch will tap you to get your attention. Even more cool is if you start directions on your phone, it will also appear on your watch.
Photos
To view photos on the Apple Watch, go to the Photos app on your watch home screen; because the watch cannot actually take photos, the photos you see will be the ones from your iPhone album. By default, the watch is set to display only your Favorites album, but you can change this.
Once the app is open, just tap the photo you want to view and use the Digital Crown knob to zoom in or out, and use your finger to pan it. Zoom all the way out to see all of your photos.
Pick an Album
If you’d like to choose another album to show on your watch then open the Apple Watch app on the iPhone and tap My Watch, then go to Photos and Synced Album; pick the album you want to sync; you can also create a new album using photos from your phone.
Storage
The watch does not have as much space as your phone so it’s important to limit how much you store on it; to limit photo storage, open the Apple Watch app on the iPhone, tap My Watch, then go to Photos and Photo Limits.
You can see how many photos are currently on your Apple Watch by opening the Settings app from the watch’s main screen, tapping General, and then About. You can also see this on your phone by opening the Apple Watch app, then tapping My Watch, General, and About.
Camera Viewfinder
While the watch doesn’t have a camera built in, it does have a pretty awesome feature that lets you use the watch as an external camera viewfinder and shutter to your iPhone camera.
For this to work, you need to make sure the watch is no more than 30 ft. from your iPhone.
To take a photo, open the Camera app on your watches home screen, then position the iPhone to frame the shot using the Apple Watch as your viewfinder. If you want to change the exposure, just tap the area you want to focus on from your Apple Watch preview; tap the shutter button on your watch. You can preview the photo on your watch, but the photo will actually be saved on the iPhone.
Next to the shutter button is a timer button; if you want to do a timed shot, tap that; the timer takes burst shots, which is great for action / sports photos.
Music
The music app is, of course, on your home screen, but you can reach it more quickly by swiping up on your screen.
Like almost anything on the Watch, you can also play music with Siri. Just lift your wrist and say, “Hey, Siri, play Bob Dylan.”
When music is playing, tap the top corner and you’ll have the option to scroll through Artist, Albums, Playlist and Songs (scroll using the Digital Crown knob).
The watch automatically syncs to your phone and will play music that’s on your iPhone. That’s great when your phone is nearby, but sometimes you don’t have your phone nearby and want to listen to music directly on your watch. You can load music to your Watch pretty easily.
Stocks
If you’d like to monitor one or more stocks from your watch, open the Stock app; you can see details about a stock by tapping it in a list and then turning the Digital Crown to scroll.
You can also use Siri to find a stock price by saying “Hey Siri, what was the closing
