Everything to expect about WatchOS 10

For users, discovering the latest Apple operating system is crucial, as it brings about exciting new changes. WatchOS 10 is expected to be a game-changer, particularly in terms of its user interface. Rumors suggest that this year will see significant changes, which will overshadow any hardware updates in the Apple Watch.

One of the most notable changes is the home screen, which is expected to transform into a grid layout, making it more akin to the iOS interface. This change is just the tip of the iceberg, as WatchOS 10 promises to introduce a host of innovative features and improvements that will elevate the Apple Watch to new heights.

Apple Watch SE 2021

Following the success of widgets in iOS, many are eagerly anticipating how Apple will take it a step further by implementing the best practices seen in the Apple Watch, thereby improving complications. But that’s not all – Apple is also introducing a new training service called Quartz, which is based on Artificial Intelligence. This service is designed to help users lead a healthier lifestyle by providing support in areas such as exercise, eating habits, and sleep. With Quartz, users can expect a highly personalized and effective training program that takes into account their individual needs and goals.

When will watchOS 10 be available?

With so many exciting new features on the horizon, one question that’s likely on everyone’s mind is when exactly the update will be available. It’s important to note that there’s a difference between the date of the update’s announcement and its actual availability, which typically spans about 3-4 months.

Based on Apple’s usual timeline, we can expect to see the official announcement of WatchOS 10 in June, showcasing all its new features. Following this, developers can gradually access beta versions of WatchOS 10 to adapt their apps to the new system.

Finally, it’s anticipated that the operating system will be publicly released in September, in line with Apple’s usual plans. The final release date will depend on the latest beta versions of the update and ensuring that it’s available without any major bugs.

The watches that will be updated

Similar to the iPhone, the market is now flooded with various Apple watches, and not all of them receive updates. As a result, the older models become increasingly outdated. If you own an older Apple watch, you may be concerned about missing out on the latest features that WatchOS 10 has to offer.

Apple WatchSeries 8

Everything seems that the watches that we can update with the new version of WatchOS are the following:

  • Apple WatchSeries 4
  • Apple WatchSeries 5
  • Apple Watch SE (2021)
  • Apple WatchSeries 6
  • Apple WatchSeries 7
  • Apple Watch SE (2022)
  • Apple WatchSeries 8
  • Apple Watch Ultra

Given this situation, it appears that the Apple Watch Series 3, which was once a highly regarded model, will no longer receive updates and will become obsolete.
