The Watch checks three things: Stand, Exercise and Move. If you are sitting for a long time, the Watch points out you should stand up and walk around. The move accounts to how many calories you burnt during the day. The exercise watches your daily activity like running, yoga or fast walking and the goal is doing some kind of exercise for 30 minutes a day. This helps you keep track of your daily workout.<ref name="ref11ref15"> http://www.imore.com/apple-watch-review (Retrieved December 06 2015)</ref> It has been proven by the research company Wristly that Apple Watch users are taking up more sport and making healthier choices.
