Apple

Mostly a luxury but it has improved my life.

During / around Covid I got in really good shape by setting my daily calorie goal to 1000 and closing rings and monthly goals every month for months on end - I even did the little comps with anyone who would participate, even a couple redditors. It def got me moving way more than I prob otherwise would have.

It's improved my life as a tool in a lot of minor ways. I use the flashlight to move around the house at night without waking up my wife. I use the timers several times a day, for cooking and at work to let me go dive into a task but set a timer to get me back in focus for upcoming meetings, small naps if I'm really tired just hit the timer for 30 and lay down.

Tracking snowboard stats in real time, as well as controlling music through my helmet without bothering with my phone on a lift. Knowing if the incoming message I've received is important or not time sensitive so I can ignore, etc.
