Building a Meaningful Apple Watch Experience

" summary

RunKeeper maps concrete watch lessons: prioritize actionable notifications strategy is Apple Watch strategy and design screens that show needed data in under two seconds (ideally <10s). Use WatchKit background tasks (WKApplicationRefresh, snapshot) and leverage iPhone background fetch or background push to keep complications and doc snapshots current. Health apps use HKWorkoutSession to run in background and surface UI when wrist lifts; avoid scrolling on notifications and expect LTE to add sync complexity.
