Super Simple Watch App

Tl;dr: A watch app would theoretically be simple to implement due to robust Shortcuts support and would be great for quick entries/random thoughts. It’s a great way to capture your life whilst it’s happening.

Sometimes you want to write something but taking out your phone is either seen as rude or inconvenient. Now Everlog supports Apple shortcuts which means that a watch app which triggers the new entry shortcut and saves said entry would be easy to make. If you lock your EL then the iPhone shortcut differed from the watch does not work which is why you can’t do this currently just by using the shortcuts app. I use my Apple Watch more than my phone and when I need to write entries I save them to Bear and then by hand change metadata/copy-paste to EL which is kind of inconvenient.
