Apple Watch Rhetorical Analysis
Rhetorical Analysis
Audience
My audience for this piece consisted of Apple Watch users who want to track their daily and weekly fitness through the activity app provided by Apple. I met the needs of this audience by going into detail on how to perform each step. I made sure each individual step was concise but informative, so that the person following these instructions would not be overwhelmed. I also made sure to include instructions on how to receive notifications, in case the performer desired to have them on because my last step mentioned using notifications to track daily and weekly exercise.
Purpose
The purpose of this piece was to teach Apple Watch users who might not be familiar with their watch how to track their daily and weekly exercise in terms of steps taken, calories burned, and amount of time standing. I accomplished this by instructing them on how to access the app, and how to use the app once they accessed it. I also provided instructions on how to change their daily goals.

The set of instructions were supposed to correlate to the major of the person creating the instructions. The instructions also needed to include pictures, if it would further enhance them. This affected my writing in many ways. For one, I had to keep changing my ideas because I couldn’t get pictures for my original ideas. It also affected me because I had to make sure my set of instructions related to my major which is Kinesiology. I do believe the two can go together because Kinesiology is the study of physical activity and body movements, and the activity app on the Apple Watch allows you to track physical activity. Another challenge I faced was taking the photos, I couldn’t show myself tapping on the watch and its apps because I had to hold a phone in one
