The Apple Watch is a very useful device for multiple Apple users and has been more popular for some time. Although it was not initially, it is now known that it could be reinvented with interesting widgets for the watchOS 10 update. From the day of launch, the Cupertino company has been equalizing the device until adding more and more interesting and practical functions of all Apple products. Now there could even be even more features on the smartwatch.
According to the well-known journalist Mark Gurman to through his latest newsletter Power Onthe next operating system update watchOS 10 will add new widgets for the Apple Watch. At the moment, these updates could go until Apple’s WWDC 2023 on June 5. This update could be quite an important one, bringing new features to widgets along with several reinventions.
The new Apple Watch interface with watchOS 10 with widgets
The Bloomberg journalist claims that the watchOS 10 update will likely be one of the biggest ever for the software since it hit users. Among interesting news, relevant changes are also proclaimed in the operation of the clock, as well as the widgets. At the time, the smartwatch was presented with Glances included, although this idea was later abandoned. Apple is now reinventing itself by bringing back widgets to the Apple Watch as the main feature of the interface.
Mark Gurman indicated that “The new widget system on Apple Watch will be a combination of the old Glances system from watchOS and the style of widgets that were introduced in iOS 14 on the iPhone.” Although, the company plans to give users the opportunity to use the different widgets for better navigation on the device in all its functions. You will be able to move between the weather app, stock market tickets, calendar appointments, among many others, facilitating access.

Another announcement Mark shared notes that these features will have an overlay on any of the spheres. He wrote that the new interface will remind users a lot of the previous versions. Well, there will be a Siri watch face that first appeared in the watchOS 4 update. However, it will only be an overlay for other watch faces. It will also be quite similar to widget stacks, which will remind iOS and iPadOS users of an old feature. Widget stacking gives you the ability to stack multiple widgets into one and navigate between all of them.
Apple, for its part, also has plans to make various changes to different button functions and thus introduce new and interesting features. The journalist Mark Gurman finally mentioned that Apple would be thinking of modifying the button presses of the Digital Crown or Digital Crown to be able to access Widgets easily. However, there would still be things to tweak at the time of release of this exciting watchOS 10 update. Because widgets would still be optional. Everything seems to indicate that this would happen mainly because there are applications that are falling out of use on the Apple Watch.
Perhaps these circumstances will lead the company to modify more applications and functions of the watch in the future. Despite these quite striking news, there is nothing left to do but wait for the Cupertino company to decide to surprise users in the near future. Especially after the watchOS 10 update arrives to the best models in late 2023. This could happen as soon as WWDC 2023 approaches and the big announcement arrives. In addition to the fact that it is currently in the testing period in its beta versions. So all that remains is to wait for these shocking news.
