Also, Fitness+ doesn't offer programs (yet?). Programs work great for busy lives because there's no thinking about what you're going to do each day. I just follow the schedule, do the workout and move on with my day.
I have a series 6. It is my favorite Apple product ever.
1) UV index, temp at a glance.
2) ECG monitor - Has done more for me than 4 holter monitor tests.
3) Can ditch my phone and still pay, call, access calendar, maps.
4) Seamless and fast charging.
5) Track various interesting health parametrs (O2 during sleep, heart rate during the day, activity levels etc). Syncs all of those in a clean interface (Apple health).
6) Tracks my chosen workout with literally just a touch and swipe. Also tracks if or me incase I forget to touch and swipe.
From a health perspective it is freaking amazing.
I get it though when someone says "I don't understand". I would tell you that it's similar to trying to tell someone they should go to double monitors when they've only ever used a single monitor and don't see any reasons to try a second.
Highly recommend.
I used to lose my phone more whenever I went out drinking until I got the watch. That's because I used my phone to tell the time. So it was in-and-out of the pocket. Now, I keep my phone in my bag and I haven't lost one in two years.
That's especially true when it comes to working out. I have a small slice in the day to workout and I don't want to fiddle with stuff.
It could be that I'm feeling residual frustration from attempting to try Fitness+ on an iPad which I never figured out. I just don't understand why I need a watch to view workout videos. I guess that means I'm not the target market. Thankfully there are good alternatives.
