Using Smart IT on Apple Watch


You can sync the Smart IT app with your iPhone compatible Apple Watch to receive notifications and get a glance of important information. You can also view and reassign tickets belonging to you or your group by using the Smart IT Apple Watch app. 

Smart IT Apple Watch app overview

The Smart IT Apple Watch app includes the following functionality:

  • Activity display—This display shows your personal and time-sensitive activity items for the last 24 hours, such as SLA alerts and activity notes that included you in an @ mention. You can tap on an activity to view more details.
  • Ticket display—This display shows a list of time-sensitive tickets, with a visual display of the time remaining to resolve a ticket. You can select a filter to view only your tickets, or tickets assigned to your group. Tap a ticket to view a summary of ticket details, and then reassign the ticket to another agent within the same support group. 
  • Handoff—When you view full details of a ticket, Apple Watch handoff functionality becomes available, so that you manage the ticket on your iPhone. For more information, see the First steps section of the Apple Watch User Guide.

UseSmart IT Glance to view important information without opening Smart IT on your iPhone. The Smart IT Glance shows:

  • The number of tickets assigned to you or your group.
  • The ticket number of the next ticket due, and the amount of time until the next target date.
