What is an Apple Watch complication?

An Apple Watch complication is a small widget on the watch face that shows useful information or provides quick access to apps. It's like having mini-displays for things like the date, weather, your fitness progress, or even shortcuts to your favorite apps. The idea comes from traditional watches, where "complications" meant any extra feature beyond showing the time. On the Apple Watch, they're a handy way to get information at a glance without digging through menus.

Are there other complications to try?

Yes. Don't forget to experiment. There are plenty of apps out there that offer complications on the Apple Watch. If there’s something that would be extremely convenient for you to have present on your watch face, chances are you can. You’ll just need to explore any apps you have that already serve that purpose, and see if they offer complications for your Apple Watch. You may have complications on your watch that are waiting to be placed that you don’t even know about yet, so it’s definitely worth checking out everything available to you in your Watch app or on your watch itself.
