Ever sat at a holdem tournament table where the tournament clock screen was too far away or hard to read?
HWatch is an iPhone + Apple Watch companion app for live holdem tournaments. It helps you manage the tournament clock, blinds, antes, stack information, average stack, remaining players, and distance to ITM on your iPhone, then check the key numbers quickly on Apple Watch.

HWatch is built around a simple principle: the iPhone manages the live run, and Apple Watch keeps the important numbers readable at a glance. The app prioritizes clear information structure and stable sync for small screens.
