Apple has provided participants of its developer beta program a third build of watchOS 10 to try out on the Apple Watch.
The changes to watchOS 10 for its major update largely focuses on faces and widgets, with Smart Stack listing widgets and useful information. It’s triggered by turning the Digital Crown, which can also bring up the Control Center in a change of its function.
On the fitness side, cyclists gain new views to help monitor cadence, speed, and power, complete with a new Live Activity for iPhone that can be expanded full-screen.
Hiking workouts include important safety waypoints, such as the Last Cellular Connection Waypoint and the Last Emergency Call Waypoint. There’s also an Elevation View, Topographic Maps, and trail searches.
AppleInsider and Apple strongly suggest users don’t install beta operating systems or other beta software on “mission-critical” or primary devices, as there is the small chance of issues that could result in the loss of data. Testers should instead use secondary or non-essential hardware and ensure they have sufficient backups of their critical data at all times.
