  • Apple releases watchOS 10 for Apple Watch users

    Apple releases watchOS 10 for Apple Watch users

    In addition to its release of iOS 17 and iPadOS 17, Apple on Monday released watchOS 10 to the public, bringing new features such as new Cycling tracking features, new watch faces, and user experience updates.

    The new features, fixes, and changes are as follows:

    Display & Widgets
    One of the big selling points of watchOS 10 is Apple’s changes in how it handles widgets, with a new way to summon them on the watch face by simply turning the Digital Crown.

    Core Apple Watch apps, including Weather, Stocks, Home, Maps, Messages, and World Clock, have been updated to use up more of the display and provide more glanceable information.

    The latest addition to the watchOS experience is the Smart Stack feature. This feature lets users view widgets that display weather updates and upcoming appointments by simply turning the Digital Crown. This makes it easier for users to stay updated with their schedules and weather conditions without navigating multiple apps.

    New watchOS 10 faces and widget Smart Stacks
    The latest update from Apple brings a new design language for developers to create a seamless experience between third-party and first-party apps. This means that users can expect a cohesive and unified interface across all apps on their device, regardless of the developer. This move aims to improve user experience and make the watchOS platform more user-friendly.

    New Faces
    Apple has added two new watch faces in watchOS 10.

    Palette is an artistic watch face with three overlapping layers to display the time. As the day progresses, the colors on the display also shift to match an ever-changing image.

    Peanuts is a watch face featuring the comic strip’s characters Snoopy and Woodstock. The pair will interact and play with the watch hands, react to local weather conditions, and work out alongside the user.

    For the Apple Watch Ultra, there’s a new face: Modula Ultra. Taking advantage of the large display, the face uses the outer edge to show real-time data, such as seconds and altitude, as well as showing the most complications of any Apple digital watch face.

    Cycling
    While the Apple Watch is an all-encompassing health tracker, most major fitness updates this year focus on cycling.

    More data points, including cadence, speed, and power, can be added to Workout View using select Bluetooth accessories.

    A Power Zones Workout View will become visible when a power meter is detected. This view provides valuable information regarding your estimated Functional Threshold Power and Power Zones, allowing you to optimize your workout and achieve better results.

    When cycling, your iPhone can display Live Activity data on its full screen when tapped. This feature shows speed, heart rate zones, elevation, and other details, making it easier for riders to view their stats when their iPhone is mounted on their handlebars instead of glancing at their wrist.

    Hiking
    Hiking activity tracking has also gained several new updates, helping hikers get the most out of their treks.

    The Last Cellular Connection Waypoint feature automatically generates a waypoint in Compass, estimating the last place with cellular reception for placing calls and checking messages.

    When searching for nearby trails, users can view details such as the name, length, time, elevation gain, difficulty, and other useful information. Additionally, topographic maps can provide helpful information such as geographic elevations, contour lines, points of interest, and lakes.

    Vision Health
    Apple’s watchOS 10 includes vision health trackers. The light sensor measures time spent in daylight, and the data is viewable in the Health app. Health Sharing, part of Family Setup, allows parents to access this data.

    The newly added Screen Distance feature uses the TrueDepth camera of the iPhone and iPad to prompt users to hold their devices further away from their faces.

    Mental Health
    Mental Health features have also been expanded as part of this update.

    Mindfulness allows users to log their emotions and daily moods. Turning the Digital Crown will let users show how they feel via multidimensional shapes.

    The Health app for iOS 17 provides valuable insights into factors that may affect the user’s mental state, including lifestyle habits like sleep and exercise. Additionally, the app includes assessments for Depression and Anxiety that can be easily shared as a PDF with the user’s doctor.

    Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 Upgrades
    At the time of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 launches, Apple introduced other changes that affect watchOS 10 for those models.

    With the inclusion of a new S9 SiP with a new 4-core Neural Engine, the Apple Watch can now perform on-device processing with Siri. For queries that do not require Internet access, such as starting a timer or a workout, Siri can perform the action without going online.

    This also enables Siri to access data from the Health app for health and fitness-related queries, such as asking how many hours of sleep the user had.

    The Neural Engine also improves dictation accuracy by 25 percent.

    The second-generation Ultra Wideband chip also gives the new models Precision Finding for the iPhone 15 device family. This allows you to find a misplaced iPhone, complete with direction and distance.

    A new Double Tap gesture now allows users control the Apple Watch with one hand, and without touching the display. Double-tapping will perform commonly used actions within the current app, such as stopping or starting a timer.

    The Ultra Wideband change also deepens the integration with HomePod, as users can see the Now Playing interface when they’re within feet of a HomePod.

    Miscelaneous updates
    Apple included several other elements that don’t fit into neat categories for watchOS 10.

    Through Workout APIs, developers can use the improved motion sensors in the Apple Watch Ultra and Apple Watch Series 8 to detect rapid changes in direction and acceleration, which may be used to create new sporting experiences. The APIs will also allow training platforms to import scheduled workouts into the Workout app.

    You can now watch recorded messages on your Apple Watch through the FaceTime video playback feature. Additionally, the Apple Watch now supports Group FaceTime audio calls.

    iOS 17’s contact-sharing feature, NameDrop, will also be accessible on the Apple Watch.

    Another new addition is the Health app’s medication reminder feature, which allows for critical alerts to be set as follow-up reminders.

    The app can automatically install the update, but the Apple Watch must be at least 50 percent charged, placed on a charger, and within range of the iPhone.

    If you’ve tried watchOS 10, please let us know about your experience in the comments.

  • Threads takes next step, expands to the Web

    Threads takes next step, expands to the Web

    Threads has finally expanded to the Web.

    The Meta-owned Twitter/X competitor has just received Web access, and can be accessed on desktop and mobile devices using any web browser.

    Since its July debut, Threads has only been available on mobile devices through dedicated apps. At launch, Threads was very barebones, with Meta working to add new functionality on a regular basis to bring the network in line with Twitter.

    The social application began rolling out to the Web on Tuesday, and seems to be much more widely available as of Thursday. A lack of Web access has been cited as a possible reason the service has lost users since garnering more than 100 million users the week that it came out.

    While Threads now features web access and a chronological timeline of just those you follow, it continues to lack key features like lists and direct messages. The Threads application integrtes with Instagram, which offered a strong user base for such a new app upon its launch in July.

    If you’ve tried the Web version of Threads and have any feedback to offer, please let us know about your experience in the comments.

  • WWDC: Apple announces iPadOS 17, highlights upcoming features and changes

    WWDC: Apple announces iPadOS 17, highlights upcoming features and changes

    On Monday, Apple announced its iPadOS 17 operating system during the WWDC keynote, and highlighted the following new features and changes:

    Lock Screen: Like iOS 17, the new Lock Screen will offer a way to personalize the area. Users can choose an image, or multiple images, to appear on the Lock Screen. This image could be a Live Photo and Apple will synthesize additional frames to create a slow-mo effect when the iPad wakes. Fonts and colors can also be customized within the feature.

    Stage Manager: iPadOS will see significant improvements to its Stage Manager feature so that the size of windows can be more easily adjusted and users get more control over the workspace. The feature will support built-in cameras on an external display.

    Live Activities: Users will be able to see notifications for events such as sports scores, travel details, or a food delivery order, in real-time on the Lock Screen.

    Widgets: Widgets will be able to appear on the Lock Screen and perform actions such as turning on the lights or playing a song. Interactive widgets can also be placed on the Home Screen, which they blend in with, according to Apple, thanks to “adaptive tinting”.

    New PDF tools: Users will be able to have greater PDF functionality with the ability to use AutoFill with PDF documents. The iPad will use machine learning to identify and fill in the fields in forms intelligently. Other new features include being able to add notes and edit PDFs collaboratively in real-time with other users.

    Messages: Similar to the iOS feature, users will be able to lift subjects out of their photos and add Live Stickers and special effects. Live stickers are available wherever you can access emoji. The Messages app will also receive a new expandable menu where users can see frequently used iMessage apps. Users will also be able to jump to the last message you missed in a group chat. Other new features include an improved search engine for Messages, the ability to display your location live for the duration of your Messages conversation, and the ability to see a transcription of incoming audio messages.

    FaceTime: FaceTime will be undergoing changes, and users will be able to leave audio and video messages as well as use Reactions such as animations like fireworks and balloons that appear in the background. These Reactions can be triggered with a simple gesture, like a thumbs up. These animations will be available in other video-calling apps.

    Safari: Apple’s web browser will be gaining a Profiles feature that can be used to separate work-related browsing from private browsing. Profiles can be tied to Tab Groups and Favorites.

    Health app: The Health app will finally be surfacing on the iPad, and HealthKit will be available for developers to take advantage of the iPad screen.

    Finally, where compatibility is concerned, the following iPads will be able to install and run iPadOS 17:

    • iPad Pro 12.9 (5th, 4th, 3rd and 2nd gen)
    • iPad Pro 11 (3rd, 2nd and 1st gen)
    • iPad Pro 10.5
    • iPad (10th, 9th, 8th, 7th and 6th gen)
    • iPad mini (5th and 6th gen)
    • iPad Air (5th, 4th and 3rd gen)

    The following iPads will not be able to support the new operating system:

    • 2016 iPad Pro 9.7-inch (A9X chip)
    • 2015 iPad Pro 12.9-inch (1st generation) (A9X chip)
    • 2017 iPad (5th generation) which runs on an even slower A9 processor.

    Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
