Measures accuracy through the microphone, tracks wear automatically from wrist-shot photos, and predicts when a service is due. Free, with subscription or lifetime upgrades.
WristLog
A wear diary with a timegrapher, accuracy log and service log. It's free on the web, with Premium options in the iPhone and Android apps.
