The next big software update for the Apple Watch may fundamentally change the way users interact with the wearable. Key to the change is allegedly widgets.
At its developers conference in June, Apple will be introducing the latest versions of its operating systems running across the iPhone, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Mac portfolio. But it appears that watchOS will be the one getting the functional overhaul treatment. According to Bloomberg, the upcoming watchOS 10 will be “one of the biggest software updates since the original version.” The report claims that Apple wants to fundamentally change how users interact with their Apple Watch, and a core element toward that goal will reportedly be widgets.
It appears that Apple will be combining the old concept of Glances on the Apple Watch with the widget system that arrived with iOS 14.
