Apple Watch Users, Brace Yourselves!

With WWDC just around the corner, buzz is building around the exciting unveilings coming with watchOS 12. Expect smooth enhancements along with iOS 19, macOS 16, and more! Here’s what we know about three standout features waiting to transform your Apple Watch experience.

1. Unleashing AI Power!

While the Apple Watch isn't officially an AI platform yet, watchOS 12 is bringing some intriguing features 'powered by Apple Intelligence'. This means exciting updates will be tied to the capabilities of your iPhone! Think revamped Siri functions, creative Genmoji, and notification summaries popping up via widgets!

2. A Visual Revamp!

Apple isn’t just content with performance upgrades; design is getting a major facelift too! Expect a sleeker, cohesive look across all Apple devices. The new honeycomb app picker is on the table, and there might be some changes to the list view. WatchOS 12 will bring greater consistency to buttons, menus, and icons, allowing for a seamless experience between iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

3. Revolutionary Accessibility Features!

In a game-changing move for accessibility, watchOS 12 is set to introduce the beloved Live Listen feature alongside Live Captions. Perfect for those who are deaf or hard of hearing, Live Listen turns your iPhone into a remote microphone, streaming audio directly to your headphones or hearing aids. Not only will the Apple Watch allow you to control these sessions from across the room, but it will also display real-time captions of your iPhone’s audio—meaning NOT having to get up during important meetings!

What Else Is Coming?

While these are the major features making waves, rumor has it that watchOS 12 will also delight users with fresh watch faces and a slew of core app enhancements. Although it may not steal the spotlight from Apple’s other software, it looks like watchOS 12 is set to impress with substantial improvements!
