Hi

I want the following from a smart watch, and if I try and search for any of these it tends to show videos/articles back from 2015 ... can you confirm that apple watch does this please?

Capturing a todo list, ideally by voice. I understand that Siri does this with reminders, if I wanted to use a third party app, i.e. Evernote, Omnifocus, Things, ToDoist etc do they support voice input via Siri in realtime, or do you have to transfer them over from reminder?

We have Alexa at home, to capture items required for shopping, how is Alexa integration into iwatch, alternatively we have anylist that pulls items from Alexa, could I use that?

Sleep tracking, heard concerns about the battery life, do any of you use sleep tracking, if so do you need to charge it in the morning, how long does it take to get back to 100% after tracking sleep overnight?

Also to avoid disturbing the wife, is the silent alarm effective way to wake up?

I assume just the GPS will suffice with LTE as I will usually have my iphone with me. Then just need to decided on series 3 or 4, again for above I assume series 3 would suffice?

Many thanks for any help you can offer, if you can post any links to recent videos/podcasts on above that would be great too.

James
