The Apple Watch is not just a tool for monitoring health and fitness but also a great productivity-enhancing device. If you are easily distracted by your phone, the Apple Watch can help you stay on track and get things done. While Reminders and Calendar are great built-in apps, there are some third-party apps that will really boost your productivity.

Todoist
Todoist is one of the best task management apps for the Apple Watch. It allows users to create, organize, and manage tasks without requiring their phones. Users can sort tasks into projects, mark them as completed, and schedule reminders. Tasks can be added through voice commands or by using the on-screen keyboard.
This is the perfect app for checking your wrist at a glance. You can view your grocery list or add reminders. You can also see daily progress right on the Apple Watch face, viewing either the next task due or the percentage of work done.

Todoist comes with a free subscription but offers a premium subscription to features such as custom reminders, AI-powered assistance, and calendar view for $4 a month.
Draft
Drafts are ideal for those who do not have a Notes app on the Apple Watch. It functions as a digital notepad, enabling you to capture ideas through voice commands, the Scribble feature, or the keyboard.
Your notes sync perfectly with your iPhone and give you a count of saved and flagged drafts for easy access. Drafts open to a blank note so you can get ideas down quickly without interruption. You can organize your notes into folders or let them be free-flowing entries.

Streaks
Streaks is a habit-tracking app that motivates you to build good habits and maintain consistency. Every day you complete a task, your streak grows; missed a day resets.
The application allows you to track up to 24 habits, including daily habits like brushing your teeth, learning a new skill, or healthy eating. You can also track habits that do not occur every day, like exercising three times a week or avoiding junk food on weekends.
