Everything indicates that the Apple Watch It is about to take a radical turn in its design and functions, and we do not talk about a simple interface change or a new belt.
Watchos will change completely
According to the Israeli media The verifierthe future version of Watchos will incorporate visual elements directly inspired by visionosthe Operating System of the Apple Vision Pro. This aesthetic transformation would bring with it a more floating aspect, with subtle transparencies, renewed icons and more striking buttons, following the line of what is also expected for iOS 19 and Macos 16. And that is not all: Apple Intelligence could also reach the most popular clock in the world.
The information, although it is not confirmed by Apple, indicates that the Cupertino company is exploring an important redesign for the Apple Watch start screen, with several development concepts. The objective would be to provide the system with a more intuitive interfacemodern and consistent with the new visual identity that Apple seems to want to implement on all its devices. While a specific date has not been set for the arrival of these changes, everything suggests that they are in the development process and could reach Watchos 12 or even later.
But the true revolution could come from the hand of Apple Intelligencethe artificial intelligence system that the company presented during the WWDC 2024 and that is called to transform the experience of use of the brand products. According to The verifierApple Watch Ultra would be the first to receive these functions thanks to an exclusive chip designed to support the processing demands that this technology requires.
Apple Intelligence will arrive at Apple Watch
Another important obstacle is the current Apple Watch hardware. Most models have only 1 GB of RAMwhile Apple Intelligence requires at least 8 GB to work properly. This suggests that, if Apple really plans to incorporate these functions, they would have to be accompanied by an internal redesign of the clock or initially limit themselves to the ultra model.
Among the functions that are considered for the Apple Watch with Apple Intelligence are included: an intelligent notification summary, the possibility of creating personalized genumji from the wrist and a New version of Siri which would understand user behavior based on their patterns of sports activity, sleep, heart rate and other health metrics.
Of course, it is convenient to take this information with some caution. The verifier It does not have the most reliable history in Apple leaks, as it was already wrong in relation to the inclusion of the Touch ID in the Apple Watch, or in the supposed childhood for Apple TV or even in the Redesign of iOS 18, which finally never arrived.
If the rumors are confirmed, the Apple Watch could be about to stop being a simple accessory to become a True intelligent assistant In our doll, with a futuristic aesthetic that would align it with the rest of the Apple ecosystem of the future. We will be attentive.
