Also it allows people to tap me on the arm when my phone is in my pocket. It helpfully suggests I might be going somewhere I'm not. I don't know if that's true or not but I don't need to cover that calorie deficit! On top of that it's a bit of a nag whenever I get in the car. I do fairly extreme hikes and it'll tell me I've burned 5000 calores in a day. In fact I suspect the calorie tracking is detrimental to my health and weight because after periods of exercise it tricks you into thinking that you have a massive and probably inaccurate calorie deficit. It hurts me too.Īpple Watch - there is no positive correlation with it and any health improvements at all in my life. I went as far as collating health data over the last 2 years and seeing if there was any correlation between device ownership and health. I also wrote down things I lost and things I gained and worked out what was good and what wasn't. I actually started writing down what I'm doing with devices and splitting things into healthy and unhealthy things from a social and time perspective. I still have the entire device portfolio in my signature as it stands. It’s nice being able to leave my iPhone at home and still be available for phone calls, messages and have Apple Pay available.Ĭompletely agree with this. I also have a nice analog watch, but at this point, I still prefer wearing my AW Ultra. And, wouldn’t really mind selling it if it came to that. So my iPad is kind of in an awkward place where it’s nice to have, just I don’t think I’ll be replacing it. I still use the iPad as a laptop replacement, but I also recently got a Mac mini for some hobby work.

The larger iPad screen is still nice for this, but no longer necessary (I could get all that done with the 12 mini too, but it was a bit hard on my eyes). Instead of taking my iPad to work with me, I just take my portable keyboard with my iPhone and get any spreadsheets, word processing, and whatever else done. I loved this combo, but since upgraded to the 14 Pro, my iPad usage dropped significantly. The screen was just too small to do any real work on. One of the reasons I bought my iPad Pro was because I was using a 12 mini as my portable device.
