[1]watchOS 5 wishlist: enable a Watch-first mentality:
Podcasts
With the introduction of Apple Watch Series 3 with Cellular, Apple
enabled its Music and new Radio app to function purely off the
device's LTE radio. Many of us thought they would follow suit with
their Podcasts app, but that sadly hasn't been the case. I think the
stars may finally be aligning for this to happen in watchOS 5. This
has been a long-time coming. Delaying this any further will be
incredibly confusing as more people are consuming podcasts than ever
before.
Related to my point above about enabling developers to build better
apps: Apple should also explicitly give developers the tools to
build their own podcast and music apps on Apple Watch.
UI Improvements
Apple has consistently improved the UI on Apple Watch ever since its
introduction. I expect this trend to continue as time passes and
Apple further understands how people use the device. Here are a few
areas I'd like to see improvement in.

The article lists other things, but nothing I care about. My big uses
are Apple Pay Suica, Fantasical, Overcast, and the health aspects. My
biggest pain point is performance, but I have a Series 1 device. Maybe
I will drop some ¥ on a newer model without LTE.
What are you looking for?
