I have yet to buy an Apple Watch but I am starting to see the appeal now that they no longer need to be tethered to your phone. The Apple Watch can now make and receive calls without your phone, you can stream music and podcasts without your phone, etc. I am looking for ways to spend less time with my phone so to speak and this helps in that process. The health aspects keeping track of my workouts, etc. are a bonus. Since I do not have one I do not know for sure, but I assume there is a mechanism to control what you share and what you do not share with apple so that they do not have access to your personal health info. I could be wrong, but I think that is where things are heading -- giving consumers more control over their data.
