View More Daily Crunch: Apple doubles down on subscriptionsThe Apple Watch Series 3 is $80 off on Amazon
If you go outside and take a stroll down the street, it’s probable that you’ll find someone wearing an Apple Watch. Maybe it’s a jogger who’s monitoring their heart rate. Maybe it’s someone on their way to work who’s making a few last-minute calls just by tapping the device on their wrist. Or maybe it’s just someone who’s simply checking the time. The Apple Watch has myriad uses, and you’d be smart to add one to your getup.
As of right now, you can snag an Apple Watch Series 3 for an $80 discount on Amazon — it’s usually $279, but you can now pick up some smart bling for just $199.

The Apple Watch monitors your overall health by means of features like tracking your heart rate and providing guided breathing exercises, along with a slew of other apps that you can choose from. It keeps tabs on your activity, like time spent sitting and walking, and makes suggestions on how you can improve your movement. It also includes workout coaching, music and podcast streaming, and the seamless ability to make phone calls. Read more…
