                     Using an Apple Watch as an Autism Aid

   Josh Centers

   Megan Rhiannon has written a piece for Wirecutter explaining [1]how she
   uses her Apple Watch to increase her productivity while accommodating
   her needs as an autistic person, including dealing with
   fuzzy-headedness and extreme sensitivity to sound. Rhiannon says
   relying on different watch faces and apps that quietly remind her to do
   tasks, 'unexpectedly changed my life in a profound way.' The apps she
   uses include:
     * [2]Tiimo, a scheduling app designed to help neurodivergent people
       manage their time
     * [3]Things 3, a task manager she uses for tracking smaller to-dos
       and lists
     * [4]Bear, a writing app she uses for journaling and storing
       reference material
