One Drop is a great app for those with diabetes. It enables you to log glucose, meds, food and activity directly from your wrist, as well as view daily goals progress and glucose in range.
You can also schedule medication reminders and there is automatic carb counting too. No list of apps would be complete without a couple of games and Trivia Crack is one of our favourites. It's a very basic version of Trivial Pursuit but if you're any good at general knowledge, it's a great app to try. You compete with an online opponent and choose from six categories of questions.
Answers are multiple-choice, which you select on your wrist and you don't even need to get your iPhone out to start a game. Brainess is all about stimulating your brain and it offers seven brain training games that you can play on your Apple Watch.
The games include memorising and tapping dice, choosing the correct number to complete a maths equation and matching pairs of identical cards.
The seven games are said to improve and exercise your memory, vision and compute skills. Whether they will or not is a different story altogether but worth a try right.
Rules is a puzzle game with super cute little animations. There are different levels, comprising beginner, expert or timeless and the game includes a daily brain workout mini-game for the Apple Watch.

Having your boarding pass and tickets on your wrist means you don't have to mess about getting your phone out, which is always good when travelling and you can also pay using your wrist. There are plenty of apps trying to help you stay on top of your finances but we've taken a liking to the Pennies Apple Watch app, which lets you quickly tap in how much you've spent of a given budget target straight on your wrist. It means you can then track how much you've got left, whether that's keeping an eye on your weekly food bill, or as we would like to imagine, your champagne bar bill.
The Philips Hue app is a simple remote control that lets you have a number of lighting presets that you can then control directly from your watch. You don't even need to pick up your iPhone to turn the lights on now, let alone move from the sofa.
The Apple Watch app doesn't allow you to create new Applets, such as turn the lights on at sunset, but download various Widgets through the main IFTTT iPhone app and you can activate any of them through the Apple Watch app. Got a Neato robot vacuum cleaner? The Neato Apple Watch app allows you to start and stop and clean. You can't get the Neato robot to return to the dock or anything from your wrist so it's basic functionality, but it's still a useful app to start that quick clean.
The Hive Apple Watch app not only allows you to control your Hive thermostat, but you can also control any Hive lights or plugs that you have. Facebook might not be available for Apple Watch but Messenger is so you can get access to all your Facebook Messenger chats.
