Continuing from yesterday's iOS 10 news, this article will be about the new watchOS 3 on the Apple Watch software platform. The beta programme is already out for registered developers, and we've also gathered some information about what's new in the new watchOS. Without further ado, here are some of the features.
Face Gallery
iPhone users will have access to the new Face Gallery section in the Watch app, like Android, they can browse, switch, customize and configure watch faces, colours and other settings.
Speaking of watch faces, there's a new XL (or X-Large) watch face positioned at the screen's centre.
Screenshots Toggle
Users can also enable or disable the screenshot setting in the companion Watch app, which is available in the toggle switch of the general menu.
New Modular Complications
Just some new modular facelift for the users.
