Wearables like Pebble should serve pertinent information when you need it, then melt into the background when you don't. The more time a user spends fiddling with buttons and waiting for screens to load, the less advantage there is over just pulling out a more powerful and capable smartphone.
This is why I was a little disappointed when I discovered the apps on my Pebble are so slow. They need multiple button presses to get what I want, and have long loading screens while they poll the phone for information. Why can't they be fast and smart enough to give me information right when I need it?
This is my solution. I integrated a watch face, a weather app, and a bus tracker into a single Pebble app. All three apps intelligently share and cache information, so loading times get drastically slashed. And since you can access all features in a single click, Everything you need is literally only a glance away. This is the future of wearables.
