I still have not received my Apple Watch yet, but with the 1 day battery life I was thinking what they could do to improve the Apple Watch. My first thought is Power Reserve mode. Currently I believe it kicks on at something like 5%-10% battery remaining and gives you around 72 hours of just pure clock usage with all other features shut off. I assume that alarms will be shut off too... can anyone confirm that?

I hope they can implement a "Power Reserve Mode 2" where it keeps alarms and simple step/fitness tracking on on top of keeping time. Physically it's possible it's whether or not Apple is willing to add it in, IMO losing the fitness tracking, alarms and not having sleep tracking are the only major issues I'd have; from what I've read at least.

What do you guys think? What could other logical features do you want on the Apple Watch that is missing currently?

Obviously stuff they can add via software updates.
