All the Apple Watch apps you'll want to have!

March 10, 2015

The Apple Watch is going to ship with a ton of apps, including the ones already announced, and the many more that are being finished right now.

Apple reportedly worked with a hundred or so developers to help make sure some of the best and most popular apps would be ready and polished for the Apple Watch's launch. They run the gamut from news and information services to sport and leisure activities to education and entertainment to social networking and communication to, well, pretty much every category the App Store offers.

You'll be able to get them on your Apple Watch by downloading them to your iPhone first. In some cases that'll mean updates to the existing apps you already have, in others it'll mean all new apps to love!

It's still early, and we won't know for sure how well they work, and which will be the all-stars, until we get them on our wrists, but here are the ones we're looking forward to the most!

MLB At Bat

The MLB At Bat app allows you to follow all your favorite sports teams and keep up with scores, events, and news. The Apple Watch can show you the scores for your favorite team without even having to unlock your iPhone.

Twitter

If you tweet regularly, the Twitter app can let you check out your mentions and interact with your Twitter account right on your wrist. While we can't be sure yet, we can assume that you'll also be able to respond to tweets right on your wrist with dictation as well!

Fandango

Fandango lets you view upcoming movies, check showtimes, and even buy tickets. The Apple Watch extension will let you interact with your tickets and view info without having to even unlock your iPhone.

Dark Sky

Dark Sky is the app to beat when it comes to up to the minute weather info. Set alerts for your home area and get notified instantly if you need to grab an umbrella or a rain jacket. We'd guess Apple Watch support means those notifications will show up on your wrist too.

Uber

Uber lets you get around cities all over the world by requesting a Uber car or taxi right from your iPhone. Now you can receive Uber notifications and updates right to your Apple Watch.

Shazam

With Shazam you can tag music you hear so you can remember to download it later from iTunes or add it to your favorite streaming service. With the Apple Watch, no longer do you have to fuss with pulling your iPhone out before the song ends, instead just tag a song right on your wrist!

CNN already provides breaking news right to your iPhone or iPad, with the Apple Watch, you can receive breaking news notifications right on your wrist. You can then expand the article and read it right on your wrist, or save it for later.

American Airlines

The American Airlines app will let you pull up all your boarding passes right in Passbook just like you already can on your iPhone. You can even bring up bar codes and have security scan them instead of having to print out boarding passes, all from your wrist.

More apps!

These are the Apple Watch apps that we think are going to be early favorites, but thousands and thousands of incredibly talented iOS designers and developers have been working with WatchKit for months to fine-tune their looks, glances, and apps. That means there absolutely will be even more amazing Apple Watch apps coming our way — a lot more!

And we'll keep adding the best ones right here!
