Apple Watch is the best-selling smartwatch globally and is one of the most successful products coming from the Cupertino-based technology giant in the recent years.
While hardware plays a major role in the successor of the product, software is also a vital part and this is where Apple hit the sweet spot and the company keeps on improving it with updates.
The company is now working on a new version of the watchOS, the operating system which is powering the Apple Watch lineup. The upcoming watchOS 10 will bring widgets to the smartwatch.
According to the report from Mark Gurman, watchOS 10 will be one of the biggest software updates from Apple as it will bring fundamental changes to how the device works. After getting rid of Glances feature, the company is now brining back widgets which is said to become a central part of the interface.
Gurman claims that the new widgets system will be a combination of Glances and style of widgets introduced in iOS 14. Users will be able to scroll through different widgets to get information instead of having to open the application. The feature is expected to be available as an overlay for the watchface.
Although the company has not yet confirmed this, the upcoming Apple watchOS 10 is expected to be announced at the Worldwide Developers Conference aka WWDC in June this year. It will be rolled out with the Apple Watch Series 9 later this year and should be available for older models by the end of this year.
