1. You can track your eggs on the watch screen 

2. The main PoGo screen shows your level and XP 

3. It shows how far to walk before hatching an egg, recording it as a workout while showing calories burned and nearby pokemon

4. You'll be told if any pokemon appear but you’ll still have to get your phone out to catch them

5. It tells you when Pokestops are nearby with a buzz and lets you spin to collect items

6. It tells you when you win any medals

8. Ending your workout gives you a summary screen with how far you walked and all the items you earned
