1.WatchKit App:- ( contains only the storyboards and resource files associated with your app’s user interface.)
It exists on the Apple Watch home screen.
A WatchKit app acts as the public face of your app but it works in tandem with your WatchKit extension, which is the brains of the operation.
The WatchKit extension contains the code for managing content, responding to user interactions, and updating your user interface. And because the extension runs on the user’s iPhone, it can coordinate with your iOS app as needed to perform more sophisticated tasks.
2. Glance Interfaces:- Glance are used to display your app’s most important information. Glances are nonscrolling; the entire glance interface must fit on a single screen.
Glances are read-only and cannot contain buttons, switches, or other interactive controls. Tapping a glance launches your WatchKit app. To create a glance, you have to create a specialized set of objects inside your existing WatchKit app and WatchKit extension.
2.Local and Remote Notifications :
Apple Watch works with its paired iPhone to display local and remote notifications.Initially, Apple Watch uses a minimal interface to display incoming notifications. When the user’s movement indicates a desire to see more information, the minimal interface changes to a more detailed interface displaying the contents of the notification.You can customize this detailed interface and add custom graphics or arrange the notification data differently from the default interface provided by the system.
Apple Watch support for the actionable notifications introduced in iOS 8. Actionable notifications are a way to add buttons to your notification interface that reflect actions the user might take.
example, a notification for a meeting invite might include buttons to accept or reject the invitation.
