"Watts was one of the most popular writers of his day. His educational materials - the 'Catechisms' 1730 and the 'Scripture History' 1732 were still standard works in the middle of this the 19th century. His philosophical books especially the 'Logic' 1726 had a long circulation; so also had his 'World to Come' 1738 and other works of popular divinity. The best of his works is 'The Improvement of the Mind' 1741 which Johnson eulogises.The poetry of Watts took the religious world of dissent by storm. It gave an utterance till then unheard in England to the spiritual emotions in their contemplation of God's glory in nature and his revelation in Christ and made hymn-singing a fervid devotional force.The Calvinism of Watts was of the milder type which shrinks from the doctrine of reprobation. He held liberal views on education. His tolerance and love of comprehension degenerated at times into weakness; as in his proposal to unite the Independents and Baptists by surrendering the doctrine of infant baptism if the baptists would give up immersion. His learning and piety attracted a large circle including Doddridge Lady Hertford afterwards Duchess of Somerset the first Lord Barrington Bishop Gibson Archbishop Hort and Archbishop Secker. The university of Edinburgh gave him an honorary D.D. degree 1728." - DNB. American Tract Society unknown

His work was influential amongst independents and early religious revivalists in his circle amongst whom was Philip Doddridge who dedicated his best-known work to Watts.
