In addition to iOS 14 and iPadOS 14, the new operating system for the Apple Watch was also unveiled. The features are not only remarkable but also really useful. Apple<\/span><\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple today previewed watchOS 7, bringing enhanced customization tools and powerful new health and fitness features to the world's most advanced smartwatch.

watchOS 7: A number of useful functions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

As expected, Apple has introduced new watch faces in watchOS 7. These can be customized and personalized much more easily. The Chronograph Pro, for example, has an integrated tachymeter. What is particularly exciting is the ability to share personalized watch faces with other users. These can be sent via iMessage or email or made available in the App Store or on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

watchOS 7: Sleep monitoring<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There has been speculation about the feature for a long time. Will it require a new Apple Watch or will it be backwards compatible? Now it's official - sleep monitoring is backwards compatible. Users can plan and monitor their sleep via Apple Watch. Bedtimes can be set and more. Apple explains the feature as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By detecting micro-movements from the watch's accelerometer that signal breathing during sleep, Apple Watch intelligently tracks when the wearer is sleeping and how much sleep they're getting each night. In the morning, the wearer sees a visualization of the previous night's sleep, including periods of being awake and asleep. They also see a graph showing their weekly sleep trend.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
