- Watchos 12 will be announced on June 9
- It can have a new name, however, in line with Apple’s reports, the numbers are changing in its operating system versions.
- Next there are three characteristics that I think we will see this year
Apple’s WWDC 2025 event comes in a matter of days, and although this conference generally focuses on developers, I expect great things from iOS, macOS, iPados and, yes, Watchos, the operating system used to feed Apple watches.
While we will have to wait for September so that the new models are added to our best list of Apple Watches, Apple almost never presents this type of hardware on WWDC, we are likely to see a lot of new software functions.
While Watchos is almost never Apple’s main approach for his developer -centered events, he still spends a little time every year. Next there are three features that I hope to see announced for the future Apple Watch platform.
Before starting:
It is worth noting that, although most people expect this year to be called Watchos 12, there is all the possibilities of Apple mixing things a bit.
In recent weeks, Bloomberg has suggested that our devices will execute iOS 26, iPados 26, etc., with future releases attached to this new name convention.
Will we use Watchos 26 from September, when you throw the public? We will discover it soon.
1. Apple Watch Intelligence
The great revelation of Apple Intelligence last year was some lukewarm, and some reports have painted an image of a company that struggles to obtain a support point in the age of AI.
That makes June 9 samples very important to show that Apple can work with the technological giants focused on AI such as Google and Openai. Mark Gurman of Bloomberg has suggested that it is possible, at least in the brand, so that Apple Intelligence arrives in Watchos in a limited capacity.
The Bloomberg report previously suggested to Apple “is marking a new set [of] Characteristics such as ‘fed by Apple Intelligence’ (although the device is not actually executing the AI models directly) “.
That last point is key because it could mean that your current Apple Watch can execute some of these “Intelligence of Apple” characteristics without waste in a future model.
According to the reports, there is a trífecta of planned characteristics; Genmoji creation on a user’s wrist, notification summaries planned for widgets in his Apple Watch, while Siri could see an update in the Apple intelligence style. However, this reworking of Siri will not be to the extent that Apple promised for the iPhone last year.
2. A redesigned user interface and inspired by the Solarium
It was not so long ago that Apple shook Watchos with its Watchos 10 update, offering widgets batteries that remind the best user interface of Garmin Watches. Now, it is rumored that we could obtain a broader visual review that covers almost all platforms, including watchos, iOS and even macOS.
Multiple reports have suggested that Apple will use a new design language that is known internally as ‘Solarium’, with a much brighter design, possibly with greater transparency of the windows.
It has been inclined for iOS, iPados, Macos, Tvos and Watchos. However, we are curious to see how the latter works, especially because Watchos has always put on a black backdrop. Intrigued colors.
3. An outstanding exercise
Apple loves to show an exercise in the next operating system where you can, launching a lot of new features to excite fans. We have seen a great focus on running in Watchos 9 and riding a bicycle for Watchos 10 in the past, but where could Apple go later?
We would love to see a way of tracking strength training into Apple’s own ecosystem: gyms are crying for more ways to make the most of their Apple watches. However, our money is in an outdoor established.
Rumors have suggested a Apple Watch Ultra 3 He is incoming this year, so he would surprise us a lot if Apple does not pushing resistant durability, GPS capacities and the most durable battery of the Apple Watch Ultra series in a certain sense.
A marathon? A triathlon? What about Rucking: the modern exercise that consists of walking with a heavy backpack? We will discover it on June 9.
