Question for my easily distracted kin: how smart are your watches?

I sport a $10 Casio watch that does exactly as little as I need it to. Imagining an Apple Watch feels like a nightmare for me but maybe useful for others?

I just use one of the older fitbits so I can track all my health and fitness stats like steps, calories burned, heart rate, and sleep quality. I am not very sure of the accuracy but it’s at least consistent so gives me a good feel of where I’m at and where I wanna be.  Also it tells time lol.

I'm not a trader, I just trade a lot.

I skipped over the first part of your cast and now I realize this is the opposite of what you probably want lol.

On the plus side, it does help with my fidgeting. I just look at the stats on my watch instead of fidgeting?

Makes sense! I remember trying to use it for swimming workouts but it would quit or pause without me noticing and throw off the whole thing lol. I know there’s better smart watches these days but I’m ok with my Fitbit for now. Will probably wait for something really revolutionary to come out or something.

I actually have a Fitbit too which is as smart as it got for me.

I used to track my sleep but I realized my sleep is pretty good so it was pointless. I wanted to track swimming workouts but I learned the hard way what waterproof really means.

Lastly the iOS integration feels bad compared to Android, so I gave up!
