A CONSISTENT NEW STEP IN THE APPLE WATCH EXPERIENCE
-
Apple continues to innovate and enhance its Apple Watch operating system, and watchOS 11 is no exception. Packed with new features, improvements, and a glimpse into the future of wearable technology, watchOS 11 is set to redefine how users interact with their Apple Watch - including integrating advanced Apple Intelligence into the wearable ecosystem.
PACKED WITH FEATURES
The truth is that watchOS updates are never quite as exciting as macOS or iOS - the screen real estate means that even significant changes often feel less impactful. But that’s not to say that this year’s updates aren’t significant. Indeed, watchOS 11 introduces an upgraded Smart Stack that includes new widgets such as Shazam, Photos, and Distance. The Smart Stack dynamically suggests widgets based on time, date, location, and daily routines ensuring that users have access to the most relevant information when they need it. Interactive widgets now allow users to engage with app features directly from the Smart Stack, and Live Activities support has been added to enhance the user experience.
A dedicated Translate app also comes to the Apple Watch, supporting translations in up to 20 languages. Users can type or dictate phrases and have translations played aloud, with the app intelligently appearing in the Smart Stack when traveling to regions where different languages are spoken.
