As shown in Figure 1-9, the main Home screen of Apple Watch is populated by several small bubble-like icons. This screen is quite neat, actually, not to mention functional. Simply tap an icon with your fingertip to open an app, or slide around the Home screen to see other icons pop up and grow larger. (You want the app to be centered on the screen for easy access.)

FIGURE 1-9: Press and move your finger around to see all the apps on your Home screen (or twist the Digital Crown button to zoom in and out).

If you’re an iPhone user, the icons should be familiar to you; therefore, you know what built-in and third-party apps launch when you tap a specific icon. Table 1-1 shows some of the built-in apps. See Chapter 3 for more on the native Apple Watch apps.

You no longer need a nearby iPhone to install new Apple Watch apps so long as you’re running the watchOS 7 operating system or later. (You can tell which version you’re running by choosing Settings ⇒ General ⇒ About on the watch.) In Chapter 11, I cover both ways to install new Apple Watch apps, whether you want to use an iPhone (or Mac/PC) or the Apple Watch Store, or download directly to the device.

And, of course, third-party apps have their familiar icons, such as a big P for Pinterest, a swoosh for Nike, a green leaf for the Mint app, and so on.
