Fresh reports already suggest that Apple will soon start shipping watches for customers, and this means app developers need to prepare their apps for the small device as soon as possible. Many important apps have already been updated with support for the Apple Watch, so let's have a look at some of them and their new features:
- Shazam - launch Shazam on your Apple Watch for the artist, song, and lyrics that unfold with the music. Find out what song is playing in seconds. Follow along with the lyrics . See your past Shazams at a Glance with a simple swipe up. Turn on Auto Shazam and we’ll keep finding tunes for you. Use Handoff on Apple Watch and iPhone to buy the song on iTunes, watch videos, and much more

- Epicurious - the world's first intelligent kitchen timer for the Apple Watch*! Choose from 40+ ingredients from one of five categories — steak, vegetables, chicken & pork, seafood, eggs — and our custom timer will tell you how long just about anything takes to cook. We'll remind you to flip something over and give you pointers on how to tell when it's cooked perfectly. Finally, an answer to the question: "Hey, is this done yet?" *Don't worry, even if you don't have an Apple Watch, you can still use our new smart timer — it works on the iPhone, too.
