Man, Apple Watch was the worst. It would intrude into life to remind me to breathe. But, the real issue with a watch is that it’s still a two handed device, except one hand is literally cuffed away from being useful. Combine that with the infrequency that it would actually work as a watch, by turning the screen on. I want back to a Cassio calculator watch and never look back.

Right under the breathe notification is a button to turn off the notification. Also the second issue is fixed by the always on display.

They have always-on screens now.
